settled

I'm sorry -_- you're right, you did make your Guardian of Fire before I
made mine, but they are quite different people, and I haven't gotten around
to changing Ember's name yet. My Guardians perhaps started out as a twisted
imitation of yours but have grown into something completely different... as
you can see, my Ember looks nothing like yours.

And... I will never get around to writing most of the stories about my
Guardians..... I have a bajillion other stories that are on the waiting
rack. So not to worry! And when I do, I could certainly put a note of
gratitude and disclaimer-ness for the original idea, and perhaps I could
tell a little story about how I used to be your editor and draw you pictures
=^..^= I haven't forgotten you!


I don't know about you, but for ME it's settled now ^_^. Happy Holidays- I'm
AWAY to France!!!!

Character Theft is OKAY according to DA

Currently: Very tired of all this.....

Away from the 31st of July till the 15th of August. I will keep the
pictures watch on, but will shut down the journals. When I get back, expect
me to take about a week to get things back online here ^_^


--------------------------------------------------------------

This is copied from my DA journal.

To make things clear; these are my thoughts and it isn't
my intention encourage anyone to flame that girl. Flaming is wrong. If you
really, really want to contact her, please use reason and no flaming.
I dissaprove of flaming.


'You don't have Trademark over your character, so this is not a
violation.'

EXCUSE ME?! I DO have Trademark. In the Netherlands Trademark and Copyright
are the same. I'm Dutch. Thus my art falls under the DUTCH copyright system,
no matter WHERE I post it. Besides, I have a whole copyright notice on the
site telling we own every single bit on that site.

If I would take an American Character that has been Copyrighted and
Trademarked, I would get in serious problems.

This girl takes a DUTCH Character that has been Copyrighted AND Trademarked
and gets away with it.

Am I the only one who doesn't get that any more? The only thing I can do is
pray that she acts with her characters the same way as she acts to her
sites: abandoning it. I'm only thankful many people know I designed her
first.

Lia, Cora, Ginger, you are hereby the first who stole a character of mine. I
thank you. I will get you back on the most polite and legal way there is. If
you only mailed back....................

Part II:
Okay, I went into a discussion about it in the forums. I believe the short
message everyone is giving me is: 'Shut up, she did nothing wrong blah
blah.'
Eh......¬.¬ Who is the victim and who is the thief here?
I bet that when one of their characters is stolen, they go jumping high and
low and screaming it's stolen.
Maybe I'm just stubborn, but I won't be giving up. I know my character is
stolen and even though I can't sue her because everyone claims it to be a
coincidence, I still have faith that one day I'll show the world who's
laughing last.


Issue this time:
http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/3880088/

The information is taken from her cosplay page as well:
http://images.cosplay.com/showphoto.php?photo=39892

The case:
This is her character. Ember Burns. Has an alter ego called Lady Ignis. Has
blue eyes and wavy red hair. Has a black dress. Is the Guardian of Fire. She
wants to do a manga about it, because it's her character. Appearantly, the
first drawing is made in 2003, and I guess this character is designed
somehwere in 2003 as well, maybe 2002 on the earliest.

The problem:
http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/3485539/ Made in 2002
http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/3443653/ Made in 2002 as well.
http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/2899815/ Made in 2001

There does exist a 4th picture, made in 2001, but I haven't posted this one
yet. Or, I haven't found it in my gallery yet XD

She drew 3 fanart pieces for Serenay Moon, including Lady Ignis. We link to
her site.

Well, the Serenay Moon Lady Ignis, designed in 2000, is the Guardian of
Fire, is also known as Ember Burns (and Chibi Ignis), and has blue eyes, red
hair and a black dress. Ember Burns also has blue eyes, red hair, and a
black dress. Chibi Ignis has red hair, blue eyes.... and a red and blue
dress, but she doesn't count along in this issue.

I do believe things can be done unintended and that coincedence does
exist... but isn't this a bit TOO much like a coincidence?

Why me? What have I done wrong?

DA contacted me, but I doubt they will do something about it because, if I
understood well, they consider it too much coincidence, and that anyone can
come up with something like that. Sometimes I truely hate Dutch Copyright
when something is yours when you sign it, while in the USA it's completely
different. I could have misinterpretented it though. The girl itself still
hasn't mailed me back, to explain herself. How... great... *sarcasm* I
created someone, someone else copies her, and gets away with it, because of
copyright differenses.

Down, Down and Away!!

Hey everyone!!!
 
Sometimes I hate going on vacation. There are so many things left to be resolves. Art Theft, Character Theft, Personal Problems. My friend told me not to think about those problems on vacation, or else XD. Gotta love her.
I'm away from friday evening till somewhere around the 15th. Not sure when I get home. I'm going together with my sister and her boyfriend to France, and since this is the first time she's going to drive this far, we don't know how long the way back will take.
It's a secret though. Well... the WHOLE world knows about me going to France, except my parents. Oh, it's not that I'm doing something illegal or so. My parents are in France and we're going to visit them. They know about my sister and her boyfriend coming, but not about me, so it's gonna be a surprise!!
 
My mom's horoscope only says: Things will not go as planned. Friends will come over and drink all there is to drink and eat all there is to eat. And to top it all, they are leaving all the mess and total chaos behind.
 
This is the FIRST time things will come true for a horoscope XD.
So, AWAY till the 15th. I won't be able to mail or so ^_^. Vacation in France means NO INTERNET!
AAAAAAAAAH! HEAVEN!!!!

Tests

I don't know if this will work. I still haven't figured mail-posting out
completely.

I think this would describe it all:
Elfquest - Wendy Pini - Art - Lorraine Reyes - Ember - Kahvi - Yun - Drool -
Worship - Obsessed.

I wanna be EMBER T_T Oh well, she is not listed, and Kahvi is a bit TOO
bloodthirsty and often brainless XD But you gotta admire her spirit!

Is this gonna work the way I want it to work? XD

Why me?

Why does things like this always happen to me? Why can't I seem to have 1 average week?

Why?

Today is the worst day ever. Honestlty. No, no dead fish. Do you know parents that do this? When you lose something, they claim it's your own fault for having so much mess. And when they loose something, they go all angry, demand everyone goes helping searching for it and say it's because of the mess YOU make. Well, my dad is like that. I'm working on b-day gifts for friends, and it has some small parts in it. I had 6 pieces in total. I left it on a wooden plate to dry, and went away to visit Uum (was great once more!!). I haven't been at the table for 2 whole days. This morning I wanted to continue my gift and... only 5 pieces. I've cried and searched for a whole hour, but I couldn't find it. And only my dad has been at the table. I looked everywhere, and when I called him: Mm... how did that happen then? HOW SHOULD I KNOW?! I WAS NOT AROUND! Now I can buy a new one on his expenses, but thanks to him I have to bike to the other side of this stupid town once again, in this stupid moist and hot weather. Why do I always loose stuff when I'm alone with him? Is it so hard to just NOT TOUCH anything in that house?! He always manages to mess things up. And always tells me how to cook. If you want to survive, don't tell me how to cook. I KNOW how to cook.
I won't go online today, on MSN or AIM I mean. Or at least not before I completely cooled down and/ or found that piece back. Or managed to find a new piece in another shop. Because I'm too angry for words. And the people online do not deserve to face that.
And I just hope that certain people will get brains. Somehow having brains is a rare event to some friends of mine.

Great week

How I love sarcasm. This message will be filled with it!!! I believe it was monday when I woke up and discovered 2 fish dead. Could have been tuesday as well. I cleaned out the tank the best I could (I haven't done it that often yet), and gave freah water. Then, everything seemed to be fine. The fish were eating the food and no fish died.
This morning I woke up and- HUZAA HURRAY - 1 more dead fish *sarcasm*. So, I once again cleaned out the tank (I planned to do the filter next week before I would leave for France, but that thing was stuffed O.o), and have once again fresh water. What a waking up call.
Anyway, I've started to Demi's b-day gift for this year. I already learned a lot from it XD. I should have made a new sheet for it, but I just know that if I did that, I'd be very annoyed because that would mean starting all over again. And then the gift would become worse. So, I'd better continue this way. And besides, aside from seeing some things a bit through, it actually looks nice!!! It's a gift he can never guess ^_^
As for Nanashi, I only need to get the candy she requested, and get some information before I can start on hers ^_^. For her too I won't use a new sheet, because.... well..... Or maybe I should..... I'll think about it. Hers will be done with pencils mostly, but Demi's will be paint ^_^. That's because Nanashi's gift would turn out better in pencil, and Demi's in paint ^_^.
Whatever the end result will be, I'm already proud ^_^ But painting is not my strongest point XD I have too little patience XD.
Stevo's gift was actually what caused giving me the idea for Nanashi and Demi. Because if I didn't have to bike to the other side of town for it, I'd never walked into that shop where I got what I needed! And aside that...... just 600 more pages of translating XD.
 
WORSHIP ME PEOPLE!!!!
 
Please?

Just testing

I so dislike those hotmail/ msn adds under each post, so lemme try a new adress that won't give it ^_^. I'd be able to get a nicer layout then too!
 
This saterday and sunday, I'll be at Uum's place- YAY!
 
Next Saterday, my parent's think I'll be leaving to spend a week at Uum's. I so hope they will keeping this that XD. To be honest, I'll be joining my sister on her quest in France, to go to my parents ^_^.  My mom is there already (like every year -_-), and my dad will join her the day we leave. So, I'm gonna surprise my parents! Huzaa!!!
 
*imagines the scene that will happen*
 
Kitt: Yo, mom, dad, guess who the secret guest was!!!!
Mom: *silence* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
 
There is just no escaping from ME! MUAHAHAHAHA

blah

Well, I can blog again and guess what!!!!

For the 5th time!

About the 5th genie related picture that is online (the 6th one never appeared online and won't appear either)

By the same person for the 5th time (next time I'm gonna publish his name)

And for the 5th time on the same site.

www.thegenieharem.com

New pictures:

MY Kasumi-Genie picture, that was DeviantArt ONLY, and the text and signature has been cropped off.

You'd think that would get me down. WRONG Anime Sultan; the hunt has just begun. And if your friend, the site owner gets to pay for that, either with or without my intention (I'll keep on trying to NOT include him), it's YOUR fault and not mine.

I just want this to stop. And it WILL stop. One way or another.

And oh yeah, that promise that if I met you you'd get a kick between the legs? Add a punch to the face to that list.

You are the FIRST person in my life I truly loathe and am disgusted off. Thank you. Now I know how it feels to hate someone.

Hi everyone!
This message is posted my the Great Uum (yes she is great! Who dares to disagree???? *holds cookie ready for throwing*). That's because I suddenly can't post in blogger any more. I dun know why. I just can't. The text block seems to be missing, and I got a loading image picture for it instead. I already mailed the help service, but no reply thus far T_T. So, till Blogger works again!!!....... or not XD
