I raised a ticket through the website (just click "contact us") I'm not sure is that has changed recently?

It's easy, you post a question that has an obvious answer onto a 3rd party forum so that every one can jump in and give you that very obvious answer. Look at the microstock poll results list to your left, the answer is contact one of the Top Tier - Big 4 directly. I will leave the guess work to you, your odds of figuring this out are about 1 in 4.

If you must indulge in sarcasm its a good idea to learn right from left.

It was intentional. Thought I'd make a challenging question even trickier to figure out. It would have been a lot more challenging had I also suggested going to the polls on the right and the clue lies within the Big 4 and Middle Tier, but that would be mean as it would decrease the odds to 1 in 9.

Actually, you have to fill out a DMCA takedown notice at this link, as customer support informed me: https://adobe.allegiancetech.com/cgi-bin/qwebcorporate.dll?idx=2D2U6A

...for anyone who needs to do this in the future. The port in question seems to be made up almost entirely of images downloaded from SS, tweaked slightly and uploaded to FT. I recognize very close copies of thousands of best-sellers from SS. But you can only report infringement of your own images.

That stick up your behind must really be aching today. You're in a very bad mood.

I think RTG is too busy with sarcasm and negativity to care about petty details, language and facts...  ;)

Can you share this port with us please?

I think it's better if she doesn't. Shelma1 has been an active poster and she is not that anonymous compared to other members.

Fine somebody else get the link from Shelia and post it. what is the difference? We need to know so we can go look if ours are also stolen. Somebody top secret anonymous of course.

I really hate to call people out, and I haven't actually gone through this port and compared it to images on SS, though many look very familiar. The infringing image that's a ripoff of mine is still up. It's the first time I've reported something...I really don't like to do it. But this was blatant.

Thank you for sharing it. I hope they removed the image in question already. (Sometimes it takes a really long time).
