Here is one of my blingees that has been copied. Mine -http://blingee.com/blingee/view/125316848-Elvis-Presley Copy - http://blingee.com/blingee/view/136572105-ELVIS-AARON-PRESLEY Here is the second blingee of mine that was copied. Mine - http://blingee.com/blingee/view/130008170-Alex-O-Loughlin-Hot-Summer Copy - http://blingee.com/blingee/view/132489770 Please can you have BT delete the copies and warn the people who made them not do it anymore! Thank You! ☺

I do believe that person copied you Elvis blingee. On the Alex O'Loughlin creation, I don't think she was trying to copy your blingee. Either way, I will bring it to BT's attention =) |
|
|
BT was online Friday and did not delete the copied blingees. Why? They have deleted other peoples copied blingees. |
|
Deb, I could be wrong, but I swear that was the same person who copied one of my blingees not too long ago. Do you recall if it was her? If so, we may want to keep an extra scrupulous eye on her/him. |
|
|
I can check on it. I want to make sure that we're thinking of the same person ;-) |
|

Yes, of course, Deb! I certainly don't want to accuse the wrong person! But we all must keep a vigilant eye out for the one's who are legitimately doing it. Who has time to sift through all of the blingees that are made and cross-reference them against our own and our friends blingees? LOL! It's like you only catch them if you HAPPEN to come across them! And, I just want to point two things out to those who have had their blingees copied. 1. If you didn't make a beautiful blingee, then nobody would want to copy it! So, you can be a little flattered. (while NOT condoning the thiefs' behavior) 2. The people who copy another's work are almost invariably insecure about their own artistic abilities. That is NO excuse to steal! But, it helps to not get so angry and upset if you keep that in mind. They may even be a child. Either way, we need to stop them and make it clear that this behavior is not acceptable, but try to have some compassion and don't give yourself a stroke over it. I mean, after all, it IS just a blingee. There's no money involved or anything. Just my humble opinion. Take it or leave it. |

For the record, it WAS Donja01 who had copied my blingee previously. Mine: http://bln.gs/b/28yika Hers: http://bln.gs/b/297h1m And of course the copy has still not been deleted, even though anyone can see that it is a copy. I left her a message on the blingee, but she denies copying it. Well, I'll just say, please beware of this person whether she is in your circle or not. She stole my blingee when she wasn't even in my circle. So, she must have REALLY liked it if she was so compelled to copy it, right? (It just irked me that she won a top 100 badge in the Movie Comp, and I don't even know what other badges she may have won from MY creation!) |

She is not in my circle of friends. She copied my Elvis Presley blingee. I asked her a couple of times to delete the copy but she won't delete it. I saw her blingee in the spotlight, that is how I found out she copied me. She entered her version of my Elvis blingee in a celebrity challenge that I entered. It would be awful if she won anything for it! By not deleting the copies BT is condoning stealing and cheating! |
|
|
Tracy, yeah, I found it interesting that the blingees she copied on both of ours were celebrities. I don't know if it was just a coincidence or not. Did you loo at the links to my Marilyn Monroe blingee and the one she copied? If not you should take a look! |
|
|
I looked at the links you posted. I don't think it is a coincidence that she chose those specific blingees to copy. She likes making blingees of celebrities. Whenever I see a blingee of hers in a competition or challenge it is usually a celebrity blingee. |
|
yup same girl |
|
|
The copy was either deleted or made private. I mean the Elvis one. If BT deleted it than Thank You to them! ☺ She copied Gloria's Marilyn blingee and that copy should be deleted as well. |
|
|
I found out that Donja01 made that blingee private. I wanted it deleted! :( |
|
I'm sorry to hear that this is happening to you! I hope things get resolved soon! Sincerely, Haileyjune8 |
