MATT490's DeviantArt gallery seems quite familiar, doesn't it?: matt490.deviantart.com/gallery/
More than half of his "art" is directly lifted from me as well as other Wheel fan artists on DeviantArt such as wheelgenius, germanname, and smashwhammy, sometimes only with minor changes from MS Paint. Notice how he re-posted my purple Mystery Wedges mere hours after I did. He also only credits the original artists in comments when prompted, if anything.
Matt, please stop stealing my artwork. I don't know what your intentions are, but I demand that you stop re-posting things that I take the time to make for the enjoyment of other Wheel fans including yourself.
If you and other people (including whoever keeps re-posting my art at Game Shows Wiki even after I told them to stop) don't stop with this, I'm going to have to watermark the things I post (with an approval process for anyone who wants to use it for something and will have to request an unwatermarked version) and I really don't want to do that, because I'm usually flattered when I see my stuff being used for good intentions. I do not enjoy seeing them directly posted at some other site for no specific reason other than some arbitrary Wheel gallery with no credit.
Thank you.
