MOTHER****** <- YES U KNOW WHAT THAT IS. ITS OKAY!
THE ASTRIX ARE ONLY FOR THE MINORS ON THIS SITE! NOT THAT I THINK THEY DONT KNOW IT ALREADY. BUT NO! I JST DONT WANT ME TO BE MAKING THEM SAY IT ONE MORE TIME!

ANYWAYS SO !
I WAS CALLED FOR AN INTERVIEW TO FREELANCE AT THIS MAGAZINE AS A PHOTOGRAPHER!
SO I WENT THERE.
WAS MADE TO WAIT FOR ABOUT 15 MINS BUT THATS OKAY CAUSE I WENT IN 15 MINS EARLIER :/ WAS JST BEING A NICE ASS. SHOULD HAVE WALKED IN LATER AND NOT CARED ABT THEM WAITING FOR ME.

SO ANYWAYS.
I WENT THERE
AND THIS ASSHO*E COMES AND TELLS ME IN HIS FU*KED UP ATTITUDE TO SHOW HIM MY PORTFOLIO :/ I HAD MY LAPTOP WITH ME ALTHOUGH I WASNT ASKED TO BRING ANY PORTFOLIO FOR THE INTERVIEW AS THEY ALREADY HAD MY DA LINK. SO ANYWAYS I SHOWED HIM A BIT OF IT AND WHEN I CAME TO [link] ON MY LAPTOP. HE SAID 3 PEOPLE HAD ALREADY SHOWN HIM THIS SHOOT.
HUH?
MY SHOOT?
MY MODEL?
MY WORK?
MY LIGHTING?
MY FU*KING PHOTOGRAPHY?!

HE GOES LIKE YEAH. I WAS LIKE WHO? HE GAVE ME A NAME AND A NUMBER OF A PERSON WHO RAN A MODELING AGENCY AND I CALLED THE PERSON UP, EXPLAINED HIM WHY I WAS CALLING HIM AND TOLD HIM TO BRING HIS ASS TO THE MAGAZINES OFFICE OR MY OFFICE. THE MAN SAID HE'LL SPEAK TO HIS PHOTOGRAPHER AND LET ME KNOW.

ANYWAYS
THE ASSHO*E AT THE OFFICE SAID HE'D SHW ME THE PIC AND LATER SAID ITS NOT IN THE COMPANY'S POLICIES. THE OWNER OF THE MAG (APPARENTLY A NICER LADY) CAME AND SAID ITS NOT IN HER POLICY AND WHEN I INSISTED, THE ASSHOLE PUSHED ME AND WE HAD A BIT OF VERBAL ARGUMENT AND THEN I CAME TO MY OFFICE.
NOW THIS OFFICE IS REALLY CLOSE TO MY OFFICE AND AS I PARKED MY CAR OUTSIDE MY OFFICE, THE LADY CALLED ME AND SAID SHE WANTS ME TO COME AND TALK AND SO I WENT AGAIN TO TALK.
DISSED THE GUY A BIT AND TOLD THEM TO BRING THE GUY WHO HAD SUBMITTED MY PHOTOGRAPH WITH HIS NAME.
AND THEN I CAME BACK.

HW THE FU*K DO U STEAL SOME BODYS WORK AND SUBMIT IT TO A CLIENT SAYING ITS YOUR WORK AND THE MODEL HAS SIGNED UP WITH YOUR AGENCY WHEN THE MODEL HASNT? JUST COS U LIKED THE PICTURE THAT MEANS U FU*KING STEAL IT?
INSPIRATION IS FINE!
U GET INSPIRED BY MY WORK, YOU TRY TO COPY IT AND YOU SELL IT? THATS FINE! SERIOUSLY! ATLEAST U DID SOMETHING! ATLEAST U TRIED AND SUBMITTED YOUR OWN PIECE OF WORK EVEN THOUGH MY WORK INSPIRED YOU OR YOU COPIED IT! OR ATLEAST GIVE ME CREDITS?! ATLEAST ASK ME? ATLEAST DONT REMOVE MY NAME BAR AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM?! YES THIS IS WHAT HE DID. BLOODY FU*K FACE COULDNT REMOVE THE WATERMARK AND LET IT BE BUT HE CUT THE BARS ON MY WORK.

WHATS GOING TO BE MY STANCE NOW? I M GOING TO ASK THE GUY TO BRING HIS LAPTOP OR WHATEVER SYSTEM HE'S GOT MY PHOTOGRAPHY UPON TO MY OFFICE OR THE MAG'S OFFICE. DELETE IT MYSELF. AND MAYBE SCREW HIM LEGALLY.
LETS SEE.

ALWAYSSSS USE A WATERMARK!

What do you think should be my stance?

UPDATE 1:
The model co-ordinator is saying he has no such picture in his data base. And so I told him to come see me. He goes like imma busy man. I said busy or not bring your ass down to where I can screw you.

UPDATE 2:
The mag's owner called me and said she's fired a guy (yeah ryt) who's actually responsible for downloading pics from my DA account and renaming them and putting them in a folder which had photography of different photographers. YEAH RYT! LIKE YEAH FU*K RIGHT!
DID HE CUT MY NAME BAR TOO ? AND MY ZENASHAE MEDIA BAR TOO?
WHO THE FU*K DID THAT? I WANT HIM/HER/IT/THEY.
So. I asked her to type whatever she said to me on the fone and print it on her letter head. That scared her :/ dunno why, but anyways. I m waiting for that to come.
I just want a written proof of her words.
