I'M STEAMING MAD
Does the owner of Creative Memories(tm) read this board?
Okay, here's the lowdown. I have gotten pretty good with photoshop and have created several of my own images without using any scrapbooking elements, only by using photoshop and its filters and other plug-ins that I own. I decided to give a go and put up a few of my designs on ebay to give it a go at selling them. I have gotten very positive responses and even sold a couple. I GUARANTEE you that I have not infringed any copyrights or stolen anyone's work from this site or any other. I guarantee that whatever was created in the prints shown in that auction was created purely 100% by me.
This morning, I got an email from ebay notifying me that my auction was removed due to copyright infringement. Since everything I've done is MINE and no one elses, I couldn't understand what could've been construed as being stolen. Well, Creative Memories (tm) was the one who caused it to be removed. Why, you ask? Because of the title, it HAS to be. My listing was titled "Creative Custom Personalized Memories Collage Print".
What part of my auction title would be considered as copyright infringment? Because it contains the words "creative" and "memories" is my only guess. PLEASE give me a break. No one owns those two individual words. They aren't even together in the sentence, for crying out loud! I didn't even know this company existed until today. So now, if I try and relist another auction, my account "will likely be suspended".
What a crock!
