He'll probably read this I assume if he's on here. But there is someone on Deviantart taking Night Fury art, uploading them onto his account, and selling them as prints. He stole my art, even though my art is pretty shitty to begin with. XD But he's stolen from many others too.

He deactivates his account once reported, and removes all comments against him, or replies rudely to the artist.
Apparently he has about a hundred accounts also, meaning he is everywhere.

I advice anyone with Night Fury art of any kind to Watermark their art where he cannot crop it until he is stamped out.

Either add it to the drawing or on DA click 'update' and look for a button called watermark.

otherwise you have the option to watermark in Photoshop (atleast in CS6, don't know about the others, I used to have CS5, but I didn't really look if there was any there.)

He's not stealing literature pieces, right? If so, then I'm in a really bad position. I just uploaded my fan fiction to DA and if something happens to them, I don't think I would know how to react.

No, only Night Fury art, and selling them as prints, as far as I'm concerned you have nothing to worry about. ^^'

This is really sad. I'll do what I can to help out, but the annoying thing is...he is kinda right. There is almost no effective way of banning this guy :unsure: . Even IP bans are simply a minor inconvenience with the way most ISPs work these days.
