Artwork theft found on Desktop Nexus website I'm posting this for anyone who has their images or other artwork posted online. The website www.desktopnexus.com is a wallpaper "sharing" site operated by Harry Maugans. His intentions appear to be wholesome in appearance, however he claims to have no way to be able to control what the membership uploads to the website to be freely re-distributed and downloaded by anyone who simply signs up to desktop nexus. The problem here persist with the fact that a minority of his over 400,000 members have the strange fetish of scouring the web for just about anything that turns them on, then downloading the artwork to the website with no care in the world that they are doing this without the intellectual property owners permission. One of the worst offenders on the website is Stacy Martian who as of Sunday Sept. 9 had over 4,000 such images that did not follow the guidelines set forth by www.desktopnexus.com. Members of a website I belong to have tracked her on this website not even taking a break for almost 24 strait hours!

I kindly ask not to post snarky comments such as "if you post your stuff on the web it can get stolen". Don't make excuses for dishonest criminals that take without permission. This is a serious issue. Shutterstock now has a vested interest since they are an affiliate, and their name is now being lumped in with infringment claims as their add pops on on the right side of the screen.
