Case #13 - Slinky

Slinky was caught selling stolen BJD images, which aren't allowed in the GASR anyways.
She had a shop in which she stated the following things:


"
All BJDs where photographed by me. (with permission from the owners)"
"
Please do not steal my work.. v_v"
"Do not claim as your own. "
"
*There are a Lot of scam artists on GASR who will save pictures from image sharing websites and sell them as their own. I am not a scam artist! All pictures where photographed and edited my ME.
"

They all claim that she is the only owner of the BJD pictures in this shop:

She was then later asked for proof, this was the reply in which was returned:


Later on after searching the internet we seemed to have come across some familiar pictures:
Number 6 -

Funny how this one even says "Not to be reposted or redistributed" right on the image.

Number 4 -

And number 1 -

The others are probably stolen as well but are harder to find the original copy.

From these pictures you can see that she didn't even make an attempt to edit them she just re sized em and slapped them on a blank 160x220 canvas.
All the artists that we found were contacted of their art being stolen and we are currently waiting their responses.

As for her other art, you should be cautious of what you're buying from her.
She stole once, she can steal again.

    anyways all i did was google image it and found out it belongs to a digital artist anna from finland. Slinkys name is Jaymee shown in her little sig. anyways the artists page is here http://mai-coh.com/
    :I I also noticed she stole another art piece from here which she named "imperfect" in gasr trying to sell it for large amounts, its deleted on photobucket so no real point in screen capping it but i do recall it cause I remember wanting to buy it :/ it was this image though http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq352/samanatha_recreated/slink2.png
    im sure she prolly stole more from her but I looked into gasr and she deleted it from photobucket.
    Beware I guess :I shes actively stealing
