NZFF

Today at work , i had a quick check on Google (Looking for T tails) and i spotted an image that looked familiar .... one of my screens.
I followed the link to a site called Planesimulation.com , never heard of it before , and there was one one my screens from March 11 of a C-5 in AB's repaint.

I wonder how they found it ? what a pity theres no copyright , i could have sold it Oh well , at least they thought it was good enough to borrow.

I find a lot of my scenery posted on sites other than my primary upload site Flightsim.com , that's as they keep the authors name , mine so i'm fine with that , i see many of my screens pop up all the place without my name and that's fine , they obviously check out the NZFF forums and say to themselves i like that and post it with name BUT they don't use a name , they simply like to look at it on there home sites .

It when my scenery's or paints start appearing across International sites , this has happened even on this forum and seen my work used with people putting their name to it .... generally you can get it removed but there was that recent historical case were two people come back and threatened myself and other people to a stage some backed down and shimmied away because they believed these people had the right to do it ... fortunately these types were starting to show there true colours .

Our trusty large international sites Avsim and Flightsim took anything related off with these peoples name ... they were stealing everyone work across the spectrum of flightsim , screenshots are like the word you type on any thread or forum , one reason I've posted using my name .

Cheers Ian , Im not worried .... just was a shock to see my screen somewhere Ive never been .
If there had been someone else's name on it , i would be pissed off .... but wouldn't be able to do anything... anyway, all good , their just screenshots.

I was going to contact them and politely mention , not so such my screen , but AB's paint .... but it seems you cant contact them unless you pay $20 USD .... no problem , i should be faltered i suppose.

Just had a look through their forums, this email adress was in one of the post, maybe give it a go if you want? webmaster@planesimulation.com http://www.planesimulation.com/HQ/ident/vi...php?f=2&t=3
