Welcome to the MPP wall of shame. Here is where I will post names of
people that are no longer welcome to my sites because of various circumstances
relating to my terms of use. Anybody on my wall of shame page will never
be removed so please don't waste your time and mine!!! Not all people
who have violated my TOU will make it to this page for one reason or another,
but I will not be removing any who do!!

Hayley Ferguson aka Linda Ferguson
Little Doodles
Signature Creations
Scotlandrus
LindasBoutique
PixelIslandViolated my terms of use by copying my outlines and offering them as her
own!! She has a member area so I cannot see everything - but her
samples with copied images are
here. Samples of copied images are
here incase she removes them from her samples pages.
***August 2 update*** It was brought to my attention that my
'friend' Hayley and an old 'friend' Linda both share the last name and the
same IP address. I had issues awhile back with Linda having posted
some images made from my graphics as tubes, but I didn't grab any
screenshots of it because she pulled them down. After that she was
caught offering tubes from a friends site in websets she was selling that
allowed purchasers to do as they pleased with the graphics, so she was
banned from MPP. After finding out that Little Doodles is run from
the same IP address from Linda, I felt justified in adding her to my
Little Doodles notes to warn you all to stay away from her!! Both
her and Hayley are up on at least one other wall of shame that I know of. |

Gerda Burghardt
Formerly of
Cute Country
Graphics current site is
Stamp Fairy Violated my terms of use on two different occasions by stealing my
tutorial sample images. Samples of stolen images are
here. Note that in
2014 she has accused Debbie Baka of My Doodles of stealing her work but I
believe it's the other way around. Please consider the facts here in
front of you before jumping on the band wagon to accuse Debbie.
Though she is not the original artist of the lines in question, she did
purchase them and the copyright that goes with them. Some of the
lines in question were available from Debbie before appearing on Gerda's
site in 2012. |
Thanks Artemis for your idea to track graphic theives and share the
information so that others may be aware of it!
