The Sleazy Side of The E-niverse

  Interviews and artwork in the new book Colorful Illustrations 93°C were ripped off wholesale from Darren Di Lieto's Little Chimp Society. Dozens of original illustrations and interviews with the artists who created them have been copied and repackaged as a $100 book.

  It's the modern nightmare of electronic distribution. On the one hand, it's an inexpensive way to get your work in front of a worldwide audience. On the other hand, a fake publisher in Hong Kong can copy it all and publish it under a fake ISBN with very little fear of legal retribution.

  If you or someone you know/love/share fluids with is a big fan of overpriced art books, please make sure they know that purchasing this particular tome is a kick to the soft bits of all hard working artists who share their work online.
