The guy apparently now wants links to any posts that make reference to his rants. I told him that I would not share those links based on personal ethics. I told him that I was fairly certain that if he could find his pictures on Tumblr, he could find posts referencing him.
Wow. This is getting really out of hand. I personally don’t mind if you give him the URL to any post I put up about him.
Woooow. I just went back and read your posts about this dude. I’m speechless, really. Shouldn’t he be flattered that his work circulates the internet? That’s the quickest and most immediate way to get your name out there. Also, “copyright infringement”? I’m a photographer and had to go through a situation where someone had claimed to be the photographer of my work. And I’ve read almost every copyright available, and essentially anyone can use anything on the internet so long as they don’t claim to be the original photographer or make any unapproved alterations to the original photo. And demanding $500 by tomorrow and blahblahblah is asinine. And honestly, you can’t demand money out of a copyright infringement unless you take it court. Especially if the dude doesn’t have the terms of his copyright out in plain view. Yep, it won’t hold up in court at all if he’s kept the terms his copyright all to himself. Basically, if you think your copyright is being infringed, you have two choices - ask nicely to have credit added to the photo or to be taken down or to take the situation to court. And going to court over something like that and for $500 is dumb. You’re going to spend triple that in costs to actually get the situation to court. Pfff. This dude needs to just be happy that someone feels like his work is good and should be shared.
…wait, do I own him $500 for talking about it? /headslam.
I basically told him some of this…and he’s still going on and on about infringement.
Great. Now you’re being harassed. Why don’t you tell him that you are going to report him for that to Tumblr, Gmail, Hotmail, and whatever else he is using?
He’s probably a bitter & sad person who got taken advantage of. Can’t blame him, tbh - many people are lugging around some pretty heavy baggage and overreact at what seems to be (for us) minor things.
In retrospect, I feel bad for him.
But I won’t pay the 500$ ;)

Mike Smith, who works as Santa at the Polaris Fashion Place in Columbus, Ohio, says a 5-year-old girl wearing a Dora the Explorer sweat shirt last month hopped in his lap and asked, “Can you turn my daddy into an elf?” “Why?” he asked. “Because my daddy’s out of work, and we’re about to lose our house,” she said. The girl’s mother, standing by her little brother’s stroller, burst into tears. A stunned Mr. Smith asked the girl if her father was good with a hammer, and the girl said yes. “I didn’t know what to say after that, so we just took the picture,” he says with regret.

Lol - ily! Actually you owe him 500$ + interest, and you owe me 500$ + interest because you used the same words I used and that’s a copyright infringement ;)
He should watermark all his work and he’ll reap the benefits of free publicity when his pics go viral on Tumblr.
Technically HE should be paying US.

So, my tattoo I have I’m about to cut it out. Chasity got the same exact one right after I left so since she lied and shit talked me behind my back I’m debating cutting it out.

Today,my school had to turn in our castle projects. They were supposed to be historically accurate, but my group decided it would be worth the points taken off. We added a full fledged dugeon, including Harry fighting the basilisk and Tom Riddle, while trying to save Ginny. Guess who got first place. MLIA.

Today, in health class my teacher was talking about the female reproductive system. She even started talking about "that time of the month". A guy in my class then asked why girls didnt just use band-aids. He was being serious. I cant stop laughing. MLIA

Today, my two sisters were having a fight over the dinner table, one is 14 the other is 6. My 14 year old sister yelled “Well santa’s not real!”. My 6 year old sister plucked up some courage and yelled “Well niether is Edward Cullen!”. One ran from the table crying. I think we all know who did. MLIA.
