Skin Ripping

[Ice]

Here is your chance at getting back at those fools that have stolen your skin, and posted it at winamp.com. We all realize that this is a really horrble crime, because of the many hours that you (the artist) had spent on the skin.

Please, in this thread, confront the person that stole your skin. Provide some evidence that the skin originally belongs to you, such as your own website, other places the skin has been posted, etc. If there is enough evidence that the skin is really yours, I will do my best to have the rip removed from winamp.com.

Chances are that if the ripper knows that he has been discovered they wont rip again. Please keep your posts on topic (no "Lets get this topic to flame" type posts, please). Hopefully, people will think twice before riping other peoples hard work because they know we are serious about preventing theft.

Is this only for authors to report on rips of their own skins, or can we report any rips we know about?

If there is enough evidence to prove that one of them is a rip, post it here.

UCI Ant Amp was one of the first five star univeristy skins on www.winamp.com (http://www.winamp.com) ( It was first posted in March of 1999 ). It was reposted on the current www.winamp.com (http://www.winamp.com) on 12/23/99. It used to be at the top, no wonder people tried to copy it.
