Author Topic: Why is my portfolio on Pixmac (Read 9128 times)

Suljo · « **on:** September 17, 2009, 20:57 »

After some googing my name I find some image which is not mine but it is signed with my name. I click on it and find my portfolio on this site pixmac.konj (newer heard about them)
How it is possible? I NEVER sign my port to them especially images which I never created???
What will bee if original creator of his image (but under my name) find this??

What to do???
I find some Skype address with name
Vitezslav Valka but it not online for moaning.
Can you check you ports to see if you images are there too, messed with other images!
I dont know are they third part agency but they they own watermark on them and they claim on front page that images are from 0,10$?

This has been brought up many times before since about one year ago. Do a search here for Pixmac and you will find the answers you need.

Pixmac are linked to Fotolia, so these images will probably be from your Fotolia portfolio.

A few days ago I had the same experience, it was my Fotolia portfolio mixed up with some other images that weren't mine. I complained at the fotolia helpdesk and still waiting for an answer....

You will probably get quicker action by contacting PixMac since they are the ones who have control of the images displayed on PixMac

I got an answer from Fotolia today: According to Pixmac, wrong thumbnails were displayed. It's now fixed."

If you look at the pages, the thumbnails seem good now

I checked and still had a foreign image in my portfolio. I was wondering: if they put them to my portfolio, my images can be in someone else's portfolio so where goes the $$...
