Possible tutorial ripping? With links...

Pank and any others involved with writing tutorials here, I recommend that you take a look here http://www.graphics.ru/tutor/ It's quite possible that some of your stuff has found it's way there.

It's all in russian, but over at gurusnetwork.com we found some tutorials of ours, translated and posted. They had links back to us, but no one asked us first.

My guess is that it's well intended with the link-backs and all, but anyways, take a look and see if any of your stuff is there.

Yep. I can read Russian and those are difinately rips. Almost every single one.

There is even mo0chan's tut on the feather! :D Or at least I think it is...

Fockers.

you never know, maybe pank gave him the green light.

I never wrote a tutorial for a feather...

You did now.

LoL! Well maybe since it's in Russian it will help those who dont read english understand the tuts?

Exactly. I myself don't see too much wrong with it. Im sure Pank would have said yes anyway, but still, there's no harm in asking i suppose. The russian guy did give him credit...he didn't put his own name on it. If he did, that would be a whole different matter.

Tutorial? We dont need to stinkin' tutorials! We are ze masters of photoshop as it is. ARGH!

:D

At the bottom of the tutorials it also says Translation:... and then Source:.

So yeah, I guess they're not rips.

Actually, I don't know what the international laws are on copyright infringement.... but why does it make it not rips just cause they're in a different language? A rip is a rip--something used without permission. We won't unleash the hounds until pank says to tho....

No I never give anybody permission to dupe the tut's
I don't see any of mine though do I?
