Today I am pissed. While I am a bit late with this news, it's still important to get the word out. Let me preface it by saying that in any case the idea of plagerism hacks me off. But with all the madness going on with the Orphan Works legistlation today, my "button" is much more sensitive. So recently I learned about a case of plagerism that hits close to home. There is a gent, Darren Di Lieto, that runs this great site called the LCS full of incredible illustrators, great news and excellent interviews. It seems that a publishing company 'Great Creativity Organization', in Hong Kong, took it upon themselves to drop a book into the market called "Colorful Illustrations 93°C". Here's the rub though.

If you are an artist there is always the arduous task of preparing your art for a showing or sale. Presentation is always key and it's always nice to gain extra-valuable tips on this subject. Creep Machine brings just that with the latest post "How to prepare your art for show and sale". Here's a bit of an excerpt:

"One of the most important things next to creating unique interesting art, is how the art is presented and how you take care of the art when it is shipped to galleries and buyers. Presentation is a factor that is present in everything we partake of, whether it’s buying a new guitar, dining at a restaurant or staying somewhere while on vacation. If your dinner was just thrown down in front of you, and the place was dirty and the people rude, would you feel comfortable about spending your money there? Or if the hotel room clearly hadn’t been cleaned and was run down, or that special guitar you bought was shipped in a cheap box and poorly treated. You would no doubt question your purchase and steer clear of those places in the future."
