1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    1. Wow. I can't even believe this conversation is going on, given recent recent art theft events. I thought most people in this hobby were now finally aware of intellectual property and how not to breach it. I am both amazed and disappointed.

    2. I'm not the active member of DoA and don't know what was going on with the "recent art theft events". Now I'm deleting all the flickr pics, so you don't have to worry about it

    3. Sorry for offtopic, but i must confess - Looloo, i really (really!!!) do like your photo, and dolls living in your house!
      Guys, you all are good talented people!
      But as for me - i prefer to watch your photos on Flickr.

    6. A lot of the stolen photos are watermarked actually, not all but a good chunk of them. This does not mean that someone shouldn't credit the pictures properly, due re-posting, saving, resizing a watermark can sometimes become hard to read and it's just the right thing to properly credit.

      I personally would love it if I and others wouldn't be forced to plaster our names and urls all over the photos :/
      It looks often out of place and can be removed way too easily if you place it on the borders, and if you put it right into the photo it looks bad.
      Instead of teaching people to watermark the shit out of their photos we should actually tell people not to steal everything they can find.

      @jadedkuroshi: How can you check if something is hidden or not?
      Maybe she just wasn't able yet to delete everything yet (since she said it might take till tomorrow, considering the big amount of pictures she posted that's not sooo unlikely)?@_@

    7. Agreed, Ara*. Big fat watermarks all over beautiful pics spoil the whole thing.


      Whose pics are the ones jadedkuroshi linked to?

    8. Falconieri1986 please DELETE the pictures. They are all hidden. We are not idiots. Thanks jadedkuroshi .

    10. When i clicked on some picture an album with all 4+ thousand photos popped out. So, pictures were deleted from the wall, but rested there, like all of the stolen pics do rest there now!

      I could not find the authors either on deviant or on Flickr

    12. Ok ... I was just curious. I'm not that good at recognizing people's dolls and as far as I can tell, those might just have been her own. But more than 4k photos sort of proves that one wrong :doh
       
      #72 Jany, May 1, 2014
    13. Doria with red hear by tjassi,.. and Akando - tough one - still looking for the author

      She has her own style of editing her pics and always watermarks them - so they are pretty recognizable and in minority, comparing to those stolen

    14. See, that's what I mean - I don't have the first clue about those things :sweat My own pics are too crappy for anyone to steal anyway so I don't bother with watermarks ... sorry for the stupid question(s)!
       
      #74 Jany, May 1, 2014
    15. Those are not stupid questions;)

    16. Actually, you had to wait for me before you accuse me of lying again.
      Me and the moderator deleted all posts with photos with Flickr all this time.
      Now I can't see all of them from computer and from iPad, but I still see them in some unexistent album from my iphone. I think may be the problem is in cash of the device, which shows they are still exist or I will write to the vk site support to resolve the problem
      To jaredkuroshi - VK site technically does not allow the creation of hidden albums in groups if you do not know it, write to your friends who are also group administrators and ask them about it. I can make screenshots, which confirmed that I do not see any photos from Flickr in the community

      http://vk.com/dolladdict if anyone except jaredkuroshi has the access to vk site - you can scroll the wall of the community and prove I'm right. And please, look to the albums - there's NO pics there.
      Again - VK don't let to hide albums in communities!!!

      I've sent the request to vk support,

      here's the google translate

      Good day! In connection with the violation of my copyright on the use of the photo, I wanted to delete the photos from the wall group http://vk.com/dolladdict
      I deleted all records using these photos. When I go to the computer or tablet, I do not see them, but when I go to the iPhone - I see some album "Stock Wall Unit" (not delete), which have all these photos.
      With other devices, they are not visible, but as I understand it, this album exists somewhere.
      How do I delete it?
      Thanks for the quick reply

    17. Ara* It is not an official dealer, she - the mediator. But she deceived beginners her deception was discovered recently - it's true.

    18. Hope support will help, because i see it from accessig my PC as well as from ipad and iphone.

    19. I think I find a right way to delete it. But I should do it one be one, so please, wait a little bit - it's really a hidden album, but it's hidden for all, and administrators too, it's technical album, as I said. And whan I've deleted POSTS with pics - I haven't deleted the pics form these posts(

    20. Falconieri you forgot to remove the banner using a picture of a dear friend of mine FrankenWah (Flickr and deviantArt) as advertising of your BLOG. Unless you want me to ask him to contact you. He would be very upset seeing that!
