My work, Bill Gates, TED Talks, No credit, WTF!

Journal Entry: Wed Mar 14, 2012, 5:59 PM
....and I didn't even know!! All the way back in 2010 in fact, It took me all this time find out because no one notified me, or even bothered crediting.









I also found this article showing what looks like a photo of my horizon image on that giant view screen behind him: [link]

I can just imagine him sitting in front of powerpoint working away at his presentation, but then again someone more than likely prepared it for him.

So did I? I reported the image when i first saw it, but requested that they get you to note me, when you said you had received a note i thought it was from the DA admins, I know you painted the image to fix it, but it did still look very similar to mine, maybe that's why they removed it, i really don't know. You will have to ask them.

It's really sad to see so many people not crediting you or anything. I mean, could you imagine the traffic you would be getting if Bill Gates had credited your art?! It's another reason why I'm not a fan of Bill. If I'm correct I think Steve Job's always had Apple buy art or had artist's make art for Apple to use.

i'm sorry, i just found this among other nasa photos, have no idea that was yours render, luckily i was noted.
It's quite a lesson for me, not to haste.
I have no commecrciall use in this, so i will just change it.
Again, i'm really sorry, have no bad intention

I thought so, thats why i didnt request it to be removed, you are a wonderful artist btw i have always been a fan of yours. I am guessing you were careful to select your stocks from NASA, it would be helpful to me if you could provide a link to where you downloaded it from so i can trace the source.

Thanks for the link, this looks like one of those many wallpaper sites that are made up of hundreds of stolen images, i have attempted to contact the web masters, but something tells me that won't do any good, which is usually the case.
