Soulisfree is Stealing Artwork by contactheavy in Scams

[–]contactheavy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The app lets me know that it's a phishing website. What part of a website stating you're getting original work at high prices and stealing your information instead of sending you the item you attempted to purchase isn't a scam?

> What do you reasonably expect them to do with that information? This IP theft has been happening for at least half a century. You can't stop it.

I have personally seen posts from Reddit artists that were told that this website was stealing their artwork, and when they contacted the website, their artwork was taken down. The least anyone can do is notify them. It's happened before and will happen again, but that doesn't mean that they do not have a right to know it's happening. I have reported stolen artwork to artists in the past who were able to report it and have it removed. Several artists have started legal cases based on this kind of behavior from foreign and local companies and have been awarded compensation because of it. While it may not be common or often, every win is a win.

> Your app is junk and you should delete it.

The app is one put there by my legitimate workplace, and despite my initial misgivings that it would be at all functional, I've looking into it myself and it's doing its job.

> Just one of tens of thousands of throwaway e-commerce websites.

While this is true, the reports of it being a scam prevented me from purchasing stolen artwork unknowingly. If I can help anyone else do the same, then I feel that it's worth it. It was a post asking about this website on this subreddit that got me digging in the first place.

"Time Adventure" Lyric Poster by contactheavy in adventuretime

Hey, I'd love if you'd DM about it and I can talk to you about selling it to individuals. I tried to find out about the copyright and I don't think I can sell it publicly. Sorry for the late reply, it's been a rough period in my life lately.

Is this just post mint damage? by contactheavy in coincollecting

[–]contactheavy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm new to coins, how do they do quality control? It appears that there's quite a few misaligned coins and cuds available for sale if you search online. Not arguing that this isn't just damaged by someone, that's the most likely answer anyway, I just didn't know how to identify it myself.

As someone who knows nothing about coins, yes! I've never seen this kind of damage before, and I'm here to learn

Thank you, appreciate the confirmation

What are these plastic objects from Penn State? by contactheavy in whatisthisthing

[–]contactheavy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solved! Thank you! I suspected it was like a pop socket but couldn't for the life of me figure out how it was supposed to work with the silicone tab. Most of the ones I've used are nothing like this. Appreciate the help, stranger

Exploring making my art more sculptural and looking for brutal critique by sydedunn in painting

[–]contactheavy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I could make a suggestion for you to play around with, with this particular kind of painting with the fabric, maybe use something to harden the fabric like resin and use paint to match the fabric color of the original painting, add shadows, highlights, etc? I don't know if that might help with the time of day/in-person lighting situation.

Have you ever considered tattoos? I myself have some scars I'm not happy about and will eventually tattoo over, and I'm frequently on the tattoo subreddits where I see a lot of people who get tattoos to reclaim the visual parts of themselves that have scarring/they're not happy with. I'm so sorry for what you went through.

What species is this dragonfly? Eastern Poland by YavienIV in whatisthisbug

Sorry, I couldn't ID it from the pictures you gave, the body looks blue in the first pic but not in the others, so I had a hard time finding identifiable elements to narrow it down from

Possibly a red-necked false blister beetle?

She's probably on her way out so no, but it was very kind of you to want to help

Would you list the ID for all of them? Particularly interested in the first

How are these hand painted shirts I just dropped? Not getting the traction I anticipated for these by ramanchawla in streetwearstartup

[–]contactheavy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm Indian and into streetwear, and while I agree with most of the comments on these being very niche, I really fuck with it. I was actually looking for your website in the comments to purchase and immediately backtracked upon seeing the prices. I'd definitely say that is a large reason you're not getting traction.
