I Saw My Art On German Site???? What

Do you have a link?

I will go find it

Linda, go to your control panel, then click on the icon for com domains in the first row.

When on com domains you can see them all and opt in or out as you wish.

Brian has revealed himself as Sean....He has yet to drop the alias McDunn, but his real last name is Brohier.
Beth/Elizabeth has changed her name to Isabella Francesca Abigail Shores, known as Abbie.
I have changed nothing except my ability to keep up with all the names changes, Good to see you, hon!

Oh thank Christine here was the link called www.artists.de but I clicked on it and it took me back here. Is it good to leave it alone??

Hi Marlene great to see you. My name is the same too! As long as they are the same people it's fine with me. Has anyone seen a real picture of Sean yet!! Smile

is it fineart germany? because we have clones that are in english that stem from the US that have the same work as this site. if the site is in german then it's not fine art.

he has like dozens of these set up.

there are real shots of sean in abbies facebook page i think.

I joined artist.de years ago but I have done nothing with them. They (did) operate mush like FAA and I put a number of works up. I had forgotten about them until now. Had some nice feedback from around the world though.

Linda, I hate to tell you this, but the more you put your work out there, the more your work might show up on sites you never heard of. I lost count of sites that others have seen my work on. What are you gonna do but complain? If the site is overseas...what...are you gonna spend thousands to make them take off your work? Such is the new world of internet business I guess.

Yes Bill the more the merrier I guess. As long as they don't copy them all is well! I only sell the originals but what is so funny it looks like I am selling them for 250 dollars that was for the prints I was making myself. The funny part they wouldn't even bite at the originals for 250 dollars. I have given up! How are sales going here?

Hi Kevin I tried to post your Jersey Girl painting outstanding I must of done something wrong.

I am really curious about this, as every time I post a new piece to FAA, someone in Kiez, Germany, is the first one to view my work - no comments, though! In addition, every time someone in FAA makes a comment on my work, this person in Germany is again the first one to view this image. What is going on? Could there be a connection with this German website mentioned above?

I think Kiez Germany is just one of the many bots that visit when a new artwork is uploaded. Most of your FAA visitors are either bots or other FAA artists. Sometimes real outside visitors find your work on Google, Bing or Yahoo and come in that way too.

kiez is just another search bot. this place is just a coincidence.

Good info the way I found it type your name with the word paintings after it and go to images you can scroll over the bottom of your paintings and see where it is from. Most say FAA but this one was different so I checked it. Here is a funny story I have a YOU TUBE video of me promoting my book. I am showing some leg and a little cleavage when I went to look it up to show my neighbor the poster of the book was there my voice and they cut me out of the picture. I looked at them and said what happened. They said look where it is being advertised it was in a the middle EAST they do not let woman look like that in there country. So they removed me but the book is about Gambling I guess they let the women do that!!! LOL

Thanks so much, Mike and Dave for your helpful comments.

The only domains are those in your BEHIND THE SCENES | Domains

If it is not there it is not ours

Photo? Just google Sean Broihier and up will pop photos.

Well I checked Abbie artists de is not on it so does that mean they stole it. When you click on it ,it brings you here!

I think Kiez Germany is the NSA.

It may be a scraper site (like a search engine who make money from adverts on it)

You need to look on the site which is infringing on your copyright and find a contact link. Then you need to file a DMCA notice (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) I have single image notices on my personal site and a sample http://1stangel.co.uk/cease-and-desist-letters/

Unfortunately these need to be sent in by the artist themselves to the site stealing them or to the server host of that site.

You can also find that here http://www.whois.com/




KIEZ is a search bot. Not a problem
