Only if you signed DaVinci's name on it, or claimed it was the original. But really: If you had that kind of talent, why would you waste it copying the work of others? You (as v does) would strike out and create original works.

The sad thing is, if MrGrim01 had asked v's permission to port with the intention of selling, I'd bet v would have come to some arrangement with him, or would have helped the guy somehow. Well, he'll never have that chance now.

Thatès because he resubmitted it, here is the latest one... http://browse.deviantart.com/customization/skins/#/d2zfy3s

I know, Karen. I reported it to what passes for Moderation at dA.

Sorry Doc, I was trying to reply to Uvah post 132.

Exactly. Asshat is not deserving of a place to hang his "art". Shame too, because he apparently has some talent. But it won't do him any good with a bad reputation for stealing other's works/design/concepts.

scharchuk .... let's not post racially biased comments.

One of the Wincustomize.com Administrators is Australian.

I'll leave it to you to work out whom....

Don't wanna mess with them Aussies....they might go Crocodile Dundee on your arse...lol.

Just kidding......(says Jim to the unknown Aussie...)

Commented on and reported!!!! Not blocked as of yet!

Stratch that blocked 10 minutes after posting here.I would say he is reading this.

yeah, I've been blocked now too.

Really disenchanted now with DA; so many people there seem to think that ripping is an acceptable way of life.

I agree. I have spent alot of time over there the last year getting into Rainmeter and have come across some really fine people, but this incident is really upsetting. The lack of respect blows me away. And what really ticks me off is that I am blocked from commenting, even on the group pages, my comments about this sh*thead are hidden.

Oh this is rich....

This whole episode should really generate some renewed respect and gratitude to the Mods here on WC.

"Thank you" seems hardly sufficient.

Rich indeed. Who has lost their decency?
