Indeed. But it's not just Spyro, they've taken from Disney and from other things. It's probably a personally run site.

They've got my art up on there too. Stealing people's art without permission and selling traced versions for their own benefit.

You should contact them and order they cease such activity and state that you can legally sue them. Not saying you will have to, but by law you could and it would be in your favour.

I'm sure you can report them somehow. And I doubt they will respond to, but it's against copyright laws so someone is gonna stop them. Perhaps emailing Acti's legal department or Disneys?

This person who is running the site honestly needs to have his site taken down. It's kind of piracy if you think about it.

I already contacted the host provider of that site with a copyright complaint letter. They have received the letter and got back to me by email today, so I'm waiting for their response about the issue.

Yeah HostGator took the site down due to the infringing copyright. But the site owner is still able to recreate the site, even with the stolen art still on it.

Only the copyright owner of the artwork still up on the website can send copyright complaints to the site host provider. I also sent mine, and HostGator took down my art and the site, but the site owner brough the site back up.

If anyone wants to know who one of the victims are, his usual username is:

Blackrhinoranger


I'm not sure if he is on dS or not but some of the art that was stolen is his.

I'd say about 75% of the art stolen was of theirs.

I'll list all the stolen art form Blackrhinoranger I can find right now. I'll edit this post for news on stolen art from one of the known victims Blackrhinoranger. If there is numbers in the name, they will be listed.

Elf Skylander Embroidery design.

Eruptor Skylander Embroidery design 02

Eye Brawl Embroidery Design

Flame Slinger Embroidery Design

Possibly Gill Grunt Skylander Embroidery Design.

Hot Head Embroidery Design

Jet Vac Embroidery Design

Maybe Ninjini Embroidery Design 02. Not sure.

Pop Fizz Skylander Embroidery Design

Maybe Terrafin Engaged Embroidery Design. Not sure though.

Tree Hugger Skylander Embroidery Design.

Maybe Thumpback Embroidery Design. Not sure.

Quite possibly Zap Embroidery Design. Not too sure.

Maybe Zoo Embroidery Design. Not really too positive.

I'll submit links when I can.

EDIT 1: I see some Wreck-It Ralph art that looks like it belongs to a deviantArt member. I also checked the spongebob page and I saw a suspicious looking picture of Mr. Krabs and Scrooge McDuck fighting. They're also stealing Angry Birds art too I believe. There is also some more suspicious looking art in the MLP section. So it's not just skylanders art being stolen.So It's practically every single trend art that's been stolen.

The site owner brought the site back up, when HostGator took the site down for copyright.

I sent a copyright complait letter to HostGator, they took down my stolen art, and several others I've mentioned, and took the site down. But the site owner apparently doesn't care and brought it back up. Only the copyright owners can deal with this problem.

I've already mentioned to Blackrhino that he should send HostGator a copyright complaint letter to HostGator, like I did, to take down the site and his stolen art, but I haven't received word from him that he will do the task after he made a journal that he "gives up" when he saw the site back up again...

I can apparently guess that Blackrhino saw your message about it because he made a video about his reaction to the site that was selling his art. I honestly really do hope the site gets taken down permantley.

The unfortunate thing about fan art is that most of the artists don't actually have much legal ground to stand on. However, the person who is stealing can still be stopped because it is very much illegal in the US to sell unlicensed merchandise of a trademarked product, which all of that art is.
