You mentioned in my comment box as well as in my EntreCard inbox that you are the copyright holder of the following image:
© Yuri Arcurs - Fotolia.com
In case you just can’t see it, there’s a copyright symbol under that image. Do you see it? Huh? Because it’s pretty damned obvious to me.
Now, I challenge you to produce the license that says you are the copyright holder of this image1. Or any of the images that you use on your commercial website2
Otherwise, shut the fuck up and stay out of my goddamned way, you twit. You lost. Get the fuck over it and move on.
For those that want to see the smack down girlie took I have screencaps and they’re uploaded. Here’s where she decided to go tell because I told her to back off3 and here’s where she just gave up and completely lost her mind.
Here’s the message I received today in my inbox. You’ll see that, um she’s claiming this is her copyright. I have to use “her”4 image because…. Well, see you can’t claim copyrights when you’ve altered the original artist’s work. So there ya go.
Oh, and if some dumbass bitch wants to ask about my usage rights (because dumbass bitches do dumbass shit) I paid for the image from Fotolia.com. I have written proof to back that up, including the date and time that I purchased it5. If you6 would like to purchase the usage rights, please see Fotolia or even 123RF.com. It’s less expensive at 123RF.com, but you have to buy bigger packages. I haven’t done enough investigating of images on that site7.
Also, if you use an image of someone else’s fabulous body (with or without the usage rights) and someone asks “Are those really your abs, Glam?” I suggest that you don’t say “Yes”. Because, you know, some day someone - who is not as stupid as you wish they were - will find out that no those are not your abs. At which point you will probably be declared an attention-seeking, shit-stirring troll8.
Back to the, um, subject of this post.
You’re getting two free links from me and those motherfuckers are nofollow free. If you have the lady-balls to bring it here, then comment. I won’t censor your shit, honey (I put that comment back online for ya, sweet cheeks), but you get no free passes from me. You can stamp your pretty little foot in the forums or wherever the fuck you throw your tantrums, but I will not allow my online sanity be disrupted by someone who doesn’t even have the goddamned sense to make sure I can’t find evidence of her LIES. Nor will I stand by while myself or my blog are libeled. You are out of your league with this bullshit, darling.
When you can fit the big girl shorts, please come back to see us. Otherwise, back the fuck off.
Update
The Copyright Police shared this in the comments. However, it didn’t quite fit right. So, I’m putting it here.
Enjoy.
They’re your abs? Really? Everyone, please note the words “I am wearing NO shirt.”

What’s funny, is http://entrecard.com/forums/3/10411/#p=16. I don’t know if you have noticed that when it’s something that SHE wants to be kept a secret, she tells people to check their inbox. But any other time, she demands that people air their laundry in the public forums for all to see. Hypocrites bug me so much.
On a positive note, you can’t really blame her for wanting to have abs as awesome as me.
That’s interesting. I’d love to see that blog that got deleted. Interesting.
I’m ok, though.
I do love your abs. They are muy caliente. Everyone should be jealous of you. I know I am.
That’s just odd. Someone should ask her where she got those jeans. I’d like a pair. She should be able to go right to her closet and check the tag.
OMG this is so funny. But damn, nice body!
Duh. Baby. Hughie.
This is good work finding where she swiped that image. She’s over at http://superficialgallery.com/Forums/index.php bitching and passing off her fake pictures. You should go there.
Lmao. Owned. Nice job Jinx.
I just read that with a big ol’ smile. hah.
Eden,
I bet they were tailor made. No doubt. Look how well they fit. And, well, who needs
factstags.Peter,
Thanks. I’ll pass that on to Monique.
Realtor,
Ok. I guess. Um, Louie?
zahara,
Howdy! Thanks for stopping by.
It’s good that she’s going on about something somewhere. I won’t drag shit into someone else’s house, though. You know? That’s just rude. Shoot, I was trying to engage her here in my open thread yesterday, but it was a no go. I’m tough enough I can eventually let go of my animosity. And I would have left her alone.
Until she threatened me with the DMCA bomb. Oops. Then she commented on my site. Oops.
Kevin,
Thanks. Just doing a public service. I’m glad I could lighten your day a little more.
Hahaha! I am 80% sure I read a message from her saying that this WAS her… I am going to go and search for it.
Such a good find! This made my day!
(This image is me and my Daughter…”
Even if it was her and it was her image… I dont think she could do anything as she uploaded into the public domain when she used EC.
Wow.
On a more serious note, wow.
Um…
Wow?
No, seriously.
Wow.
BTW, how do you have those cool, snarky footnotes? I want them, too!
Wait one gosh dang minute!
Who the heck is Yuri Arcurs and just how did he/she get my photo!??? I am so going to sue over this! It took me 129873 hours of hard core time on that big ass rubber ball to get those abs just right! I mean, not to mention, I really sacrificed and decided to live off of nothing but saltines and celery for 8 months.
I am calling my lawyer right now! Someone is going down.
*Seriously, Jinx, this is too funny. Love it! Love you! Rock on, with your bad self!
And here I thought you were posting a pic of yourself. You do have a bod like that right? Shall we just say it’s true anyway? I’d like to always think of you as that svelt.
Oh, and way to kick ass.
[I took it out, Officer, and put it in the post.]

Hi, everyone. It’s late in my neck of the boondocks and I stopped by my email for just one more look. Well, here y’all are.
Stan,
You can find that most awesome plugin here. Don’t even have to mess with your theme.
Everyone else,
I’ll deal with you miscreants on the morrow.
zahara,
Apparently I don’t have permission to view the topic where this is being discussed. Thanks for the offer though.
Thanks, Jinxy. I know HTML like I know ’something I don’t know’ so I’ll have to look at this tomorrow.
I have absolutely no clue what started all of this, but I do so love watching people get fucking owned! LOL
Bravo Jinxy!
Lee,
If it had been her image, I would have respected her copyright- because if she created it she would still have it (though EC can do whatever they want with it legally). Since it’s not her copyright and she tried to bully me instead of best me in debate (she can’t) I was forced to throw a tantrum.
I hate being bullied. Really.
Also, your image is also copyrighted, but you’ve given non-exclusive rights to EC.
Stan,
Wow! You are serious.
Awa,
Where the hell have you been? Ok, yes, I’m a slacker too. That is no excuse.
Also, when you were preening in front of a mirror that one time you were completely unaware of the camera behind the glass. You wouldn’t believe the images of you I’ve seen. And what the hell were you doing with banana? Unbelievable!
Vince,
I’m sexy cute in my own way. But if it makes you happy, you can pretend that I’m tall, svelt and have devilish bedroom eyes.
Kat,
Welcome! What started it was that I had the utter audacity to actually disagree with her erroneous interpretation of two Supreme Court decisions. She didn’t like that. When I attempted to join in an otherwise jovial thread (because I did have an itch) she starting kicking my chins- like a petulant child. Then she said I was nasty to her in a PM. I was not nasty then. I don’t go into someone else’s site and shit on the carpet (so to speak) so I brought it here.
This post, of course, is a different story. I just wanted to define “nasty” definitively when it relates to me.
And thank you. *bows
All I can say is OMG … the drama
Glad I didn’t post pics of my abs though, particularly if they aren’t mine. Actually, when referring to my abs … I call them my flabs.
And just for reference … the hot blonde with sunglasses that I stole from somewhere is not me … I use it for all the shitty little profiles I have all over the place because I want to. Actually, I have 3 grandchildren and that chic probably doesn’t.
Suzanne,
I don’t care who uses what image for their avatar. I don’t expect people to show their true selves online because it’s just not safe. Shit, my avatar isn’t me and, clearly, that troll on my open thread isn’t really me. More power to anyone that does that. I’m not the avatar police. Ya know?
Here’s the jab:
She sent me a “notice” to cease using her “copyrighted” image. She went so far as to come onto my blog, leave a message, EDIT said message (I’m suspicious of her motives for that, but was able to retrieve the original from my notification email) and then go to my EC inbox to threaten me? Mind you, she was threatening me with legal action of an image that she doesn’t even fucking OWN.
This started over a goddamned debate that she fucking lost. Holy shitballs, but I thought myself very reasonable too. Not only did she lose the fucking “debate” (I use that term very loosely because CLEARLY she has no clue to what a grown-up debate looks like) then she baits me in the forums. Fuck that shit. She claimed that I was nasty to her. I used a screenshot to laugh at her definition of nasty. And so here we are.
I now, even though I brought this shit to my house, see I’m being called out in the forums again. WTF? Seriously, what the fuck is that shit about? I know you didn’t do it. I apologize if I’m coming off aggressive toward you. I don’t mean it that way. But, you know, someone thinks I’m supposed to roll over, take it up the ass, and limp off the ‘Net defeated and that just irritates the shit out of me.
I wasn’t trying to drag you into a flame or call you out at the forum. I simply meant that I thought Lee had started that particular thread because of him reading what you wrote here but that everyone including him kept denying that the subject had anything to do with her or would have even come up if all of that had not happened. I should have been more clear on that. I think a lot of people are being just a bit too sensative (including Glam) about everything that went on. I don’t have a personal issue with you at all. In fact you were one of the first people I put on my favorite blog lists when I first got to EC.
I do have issues with Lee but after he replied I limited my interaction with him to PM’s and atually asked others to drop it.
Hey Jinxy,
I don’t think, although I should probably look again, that you were called out in that particular thread. Your post was mentioned as a reference was how I took it. A few of us have called out Lee Doyle though. Some of them, due to Glam. Me, on the other hand, based on BS that I’ve seen Lee Doyle shovel across other sites. Two-faced doesn’t cover what I think of him.
Now as far as what started this post, you win. Serious ownage. While I’ll state my own opinion on things at EC that bother me I try to remain consistent. I’ve only disliked one person there, and it should be obvious who that is by now.
The issue which started this controversy ‘tween you and Glam is one I’d side with you on. Graham has the right to decide what he’ll allow on EC, period. He says no nudity, then no nudity. There will always be “grey” areas but most of us can discern between art and porn.
Jesus wept…I’m rambling. I excel at that though.
Rachel,
I appreciate that you came here to let me know.
I have no idea why Lee started that thread and there was no way I was going to get involved in it (though it did give me a really awesome idea for a post). I don’t want any more of this in the EC forums. That’s why I wrote my open thread post and why I said what I did in that newest thread.
Actually, if she’d not have contacted me at all about the image, this post wouldn’t have been written and I’d have simply avoided her. Being called “nasty” was funny and being called “pathetic” was just, well, not noteworthy (trust me when I say that I’ve been called a lot worse). I feel like she was kicking me in the shins and daring me to do something.
I guess you could consider that sensitive. Or bitchy. Whatever. The events that led us to this post (and whatever else) are ridiculous. Seriously. I recognize my involvement in that ridiculous bullshit- to a point. But in the end I felt that someone was trying to bully me as I’d seen her bully others in the forum. I purposely purchased the rights to that image so that she couldn’t “ruin my life” as I’d been warned she was trying to do.
Ruin my life, Rachel. Think about that. Over what? Being wrong? Someone having the utter audacity to call her out? Really? Amazing. Just fucking amazing.
Oh, and Sez-fucking-Who is down. That pisses me off. DON’T FUCK WITH MY THEME!! I hate plugins that do that. HATE… grrrr.
Hey Jinx
Completely on your side … I saw the flames that went down. I just made a light post … an attempt at humor that apparently failed
I’ve seen the flames follow her where ever she goes and no one has that kind of “luck.” I read the personal attacks … read the whole thread until it’s demise.
Monkey Tale,
I did feel called out, but in retrospect I see I was wrong. However there was potential for more of the same from that thread. And I just didn’t want this to be there. EC is not the place for this particular issue. Ya know?
And no need to worry about rambling. As you can see, I’m an expert at the art.
Thanks for coming by. I really appreciate that.
Suzanne,
I understand. I just wanted to state my case one more time because I have recently been told that I’m on her hit list, blah blah blah.
It was never actually about the image. The first time I saw her claim they really are her abs I about choked on my coffee. Bullshit is bullshit and I recognize it. But I don’t usually care. Usually.
Reminds me of an ancient mariner poem that I might have made up in my mind. Anywho, Suzanne hit the nail on the head. If you keep losing boyfriends/girlfriends/roommates because they’re all psycho. Chances are, you might be the one in need of meds. Then again, that’s what my shrink says. So there’s that.
BTW, Jenny, that email you sent me was super helpful and I really appreciate it.
BTW II, I also hate Sezwho and have disabled it. It has changed blogging forever. As in, you have to disable plugins before going to your site.
BTW III, I have nothing else to say but I believe in the Rule of Threes.
Up until a few days ago I stayed away from the forums at EC. And look at what I missed! Clearly those abs are not hers and she is just pissed because you called her out on that. And then it just spiraled out from there. From what I have read on this..thanks to recent convos linking me up…I’m on your side with this!
Keep up the good work! Will be back!
I have no idea what started this but reading a good rant is always entertaining. I really liked the part about finding the actual copyright to the image. Priceless.
Underboobery! Also, you have some mad detective skills hunting down the original picture.
This reminds me of a lot of the icon journals floating around Livejournal. Many of them have the mistaken idea that if they slap two words on some picture of a celebrity they find on the internet in Photoshop, they automagically own the copyright to the “enhanced” picture.
Hahahaha. I think that is hilarious. Congrats and great job on calling someone out. I hate people who try to take credit for something that isn’t theirs.
It’s happened to myself and a good friend of mine (we both are creative writers) a couple times, and it’s fucking annoying as hell, especially when people try to deny stealing your shit.
Stan,
Isn’t there a saying somewhere that if everyone around you is crazy you might be the only one? Or something equally as inane? Ok, I completely made that up. What?
Mom,
It wasn’t the abs pic that pissed her off. What pissed her off was the fact that she thought I was a patsy that she could shit on and get away with it. Is it my fault she don’t read before she cites? No. And did you read the “nasty PM” I sent her (mistakenly)? Mwahaha!! She thought that was nasty…;)
Majik,
Thanks.
Lis,
What’s hoppin’, sticklette?
Actually, I didn’t find it. I was in the process of hunting it down, but someone handed it right to me. Amazing, huh? I guess it sucks to have people that hate you because then you can’t try to bully other people with a sack full of lies.
Asshole legal threat based on lie: $0
License to use copyrighted image: $6
Intertoobs friends: Priceless
BlueWorkhorse,
I hate that too. And hotlinkers. I hate them too.
But, wait, it’s better. She may have had a hand in someone getting their EC banned because she claimed copyright on the above image. How fucked up is that? Gods, I hope that ban is revoked if that was the case.
Anyway, that sucks you had to put up with that shit. It’s people like the above would-be tyrant that make online life a little less that stellar. Crazy stupid people…Gah!
P.S.
I fixed my theme. Woo hoo!
Now to get a new one.
A nutcase that has been telling people to “Get a Lawyer!” for over 2 years. search userid “Passion”
Hi, Batshitcrazy (Nice name by the way),
Interesting that you should mention threats of lawsuits. I addressed that here. Take a gander toward the bottom.
Thanks for stopping by!
