Oh God. My hubby's artwork is indeed quite famous among lady bloggers in Malaysia. I found one of his old drawings of Tilmiz from this site to which has merebak to other sites as well. Unfortunately my husband does not hold rights to this drawings. I didn't want to right about it at first but other than widgets and some little doodle's they have put on magazine's for sale... I think people just take paid art just like that and do never ask permission or give any credits. But I guess I should be proud of my hubby's cute drawings used widely...
I don't blame them because probably they too don't know where it comes from. Plus the owner of this production still haven't done anything to protect his creative rights. What to do la right. I think he's okay with it or it's just too complicated to make your art a patent??? Don't ask me, I don't know. It just pisses me off when people use someone's creation to make money and they don't ask permission first. Teringat to the magazine at 7-11 and not this Contest Model Bertudung or any blogger widgets(got credit) I saw.
I don't know why I'm so pissed over such a little thing? Probably I saw how hard hubby came up with the idea and how hard he worked on it. But kesah2 lama ni semua hubby said he doesn't care much. They can do whatever they want because there's not much he can do about it.
2 surprises:
I do understand how u feel.
Most Malaysian are very very ego to give credits to others when borrowing images & etc. I've seen that many times.
U deserve to feel like that and ur hubby shud received credits or at least permission inquires for that beautiful artwork.
Thank you dear. That is so nice of you to say. Piracy these days is indeed a huge problem. Have to learn to let go a little of something. Thanks for visiting:)
