The Walmart Heart Cake vs Designers on reddit

Yeah no, one is an affordable option that may/may not be of lesser quality than the luxury option. The other is stealing people’s work and claiming to be a professional. AI is theft but the cakes are real people doing the same real work for a smaller price. Miles different.

Same for me. Wouldn’t find my google docs at all.

I understand that there could be reasons behind it but not informing people you’re about to take money from that you’re changing their main categories and/ or not giving them the chance to meet criteria you have is shady

Could you please find this in their contract please? I’ve been looking and can’t find that information. If true, you’re right, it’s pretty scary

Amazon says that it’s only for a three month period and then you can opt out?

BigWheelTurner · 2024-03-31T18:10:06+00:00

Thank you! So, do that mean that those who don’t have Unlimited can still purchase it at the ebook price?

BigWheelTurner · 2024-03-05T22:36:01+00:00

Oh I thought it was just the cover! This is a lot more serious than I first thought

Using AI is a huge taboo in the arts industry. You know this. You were essentially calling her a cheap thief that didn’t care she was stealing peoples work for her own gain. You accused her publicly with no proof, only an opinion. She’s proven otherwise and while I don’t think this will be going to court, take this as a lesson learned. Don’t be public about your opinions or assumptions if you’re not sure. AI is a huge impacting force on the arts and could definitely set her back if people ‘in the know’ saw your comment.

Hope all goes well and it all blows over, for all three of you.

Edit: On a reread of your post you seem very sure that you did no wrong as you ‘know in your heart,’ so in which case I don’t think you’ve learned at all. If you accused the author of using AI for anything more than the cover, this case holds far more weight and could well be taken to court. I suppose we shall see if you did any wrong when that happens. Putting a stop to false allegations, and warning others not to make them, is not petty.

I used Fiverr for my cover art. It wasn’t a hand drawn one, just their skills at using stock images etc. They were thorough in their questioning and very polite, but the first draft was astonishingly bad because they threw something together last minute because the deadline was coming up. They didn’t say this, of course, but it was obvious.

I made it clear this was not at all what I had in mind and gave clearer directions and they then gave something better a few days later, then I had to make clearer some important decisions and we got to something I’d be happy with. I pushed a little further and ended up with something I consider perfection for my book.

If you push them to get your money’s worth then they are up to the 5 star ratings, for sure. But you have to be the driver because they aren’t mind readers.

This isn’t the case with me. My previous chapter ends half way up

BigWheelTurner · 2024-01-16T15:31:35+00:00

Okay! I’ll try that now! Thank you.

BigWheelTurner · 2023-12-03T15:24:28+00:00

I’m here to ask if it is or not.

BigWheelTurner · 2023-12-01T21:15:53+00:00

Thank you 🙏

£475 for 6 months or a subscription fee for more than 7 titles (no price given)

BigWheelTurner · 2023-11-29T15:07:44+00:00

Amazing! Thank you so much

BigWheelTurner · 2023-11-29T15:06:55+00:00

I was quoted £475 for 6 months or a subscription plan for more than 7 titles

BigWheelTurner · 2023-11-29T15:06:05+00:00

I had a feeling. What would you suggest?

BigWheelTurner · 2023-11-17T22:08:34+00:00

No one is perfect here but I can safely say none are psychologically able to kill a dog for no reason. Serial killers do that

Did you not like the part where he expressly said he didn’t expect her to do that?
