    Topic states it all really

    I`m sure you guys dont want your stuff appearing elsewhere , just add an antirip logo or just put your name on it or something

    This is just some friendly advice , you obviously dont have to

    Cheers

    As far as tags go, I don't really care. Also, it is rather easy to rip stuff if your text isn't unique. I love when people sell things for 'learning rights' only, when that guy just needs to take the PSD, add his name to it and he can say its his on another forum...

    Sound advice for those who take it, though.

    I personally think you should always have your name on your designs. Even if you have it really small or hidden somewhere that way it's harder for someone to rip it.

    Good advice, G72. ;)

    Here's a good tip which i do. If i make a sig that doesnt have my name staring you in the face i hide the initials of my name in the sig. I blend it in so it can be barely seen, but if you look hard enough it's there. Pixel font at size 10 is perfect for it.

    Ha.

    If you're good at photomanipulation (not giving any hints here) and know your way around photohop, antirips become mearly opacitied text that's easy to remove...

    Yeah, but most people who rip don't know squat about PS and that's why they claim others' art as their own.
