Bandwidth thieves

So PreZ sent me the link to some person's diaryland journal this afternoon. Not only did this person rip off several of the menu images from goth.net, they didn't even bother to host them on their own webspace. Not that that really makes it much better, as it's still copyright infringement, but stealing bandwidth just adds insult to injury.

So I've decided to swap the images out with something else. Clicky-clicky.

I'm following it up with a cease and desist email to the site host. They generally don't look too kindly on that sort of thing, and accounts can and do get pulled over it.

I'm also sending an email off to another person whose bandwidth and images she's stealing. Apparantly that copyright on his/her site didn't stop this girl from direct linking to his paintings either and using them as part of her layout.
