    To add to what Daveyboy has said, you may want to also report this to DP admins.

    Im a believer in Caveat Emptor, so on one hand it's my fault, but on the other hand, this kind of sucks.

    This is also bothering me because I put up relatively big dollars to attract the best of the best. Just goes to show, you've got to sell the clients on what you like, and tell them why they need to like it. heh.

    Guys,
    Matt did the right thing and refunded my money like a gentleman. He was very upstanding about the whole thing. Everyone makes mistakes.

    Not sure if you're talking about my entry, but I haven't copy from any other site. Also, Josh asked me for changes, and just few minutes ago I sent him psd. ;)

    That won't help in any case, mods/admins don't jump in member disputes.

    No i just meant that a lot of them were pretty obviously google images or images that already existed, I know a few of them weren't yours included ;)

    Well done on winning!

    Darkx: while they may not jump into a dispute, they most certainly take the time if it's critical and do ban members. I know I have pointed out things and they have responded appropriately.

    Happy to know this ended on a good note. And congrats, Dark!

    Alot of them havn't been copyrighted, and are free to be used because they can classify as ClipArt. Mine was a clipart image. Clipart can be used freely.

    While that is true, you should at least tell the contest holder of the deal; like he said he wouldn't have paid 100 bucks for something that wasn't unique and that he could have cobbled together himself if he looked on google images. If you throw straight dice from the start, problems never arise.

    In addition: Just because an image doesn't have a copyright symbol next to it does not mean it's public domain. And sometimes you can use an image but not for profit or resale....each image has it's own rights for usage. Just need to check on it....
