, but can't find a really good picture

! Any help would be so appreciated

Milliepie (a DISigner on the boards here) has some. You can find her in the Magnet thread. She has a link in her signature to her photobucket and 4shared files.

It's a shame people are making money off of designs that were created and shared by someone FOR FREE and now others have essentially stolen them and are charging for them.

Corinna, I know you have been asked many times but could you please PM me the Hidden Mickey images and how you created the necklace! We are cruising on the Fantasy with our Granddaughters in June and they would be great.

Some folks don't have access to a printer to make their own(or simply don't want to take the time or have the time to do them up themselves), I see nothing wrong with this. It takes a lot of ink and getting the sizing correct, not to mention buying special magnetic paper. If someone is willing to make them up and print them out and people want to pay someone for that service....why not?

I haven't looked at what is being created but once people start making money from Disney items it is an infringement on Disney copywrites, something Disney takes very seriously.

They(Disney) don't take it too seriously or you would have all the handmade fish extenders and Disney theme gifts that are handmade floating around on Ebay and Etsy

People are selling the same magnets that people have the graphics made to print up themselves. Somebody else is purchasing the magnetic photo paper and ink, and printing them up for them.

kelmarie66 · 10-01-2012, 10:27 AM

I believe they do take it seriously, and also think it's very costly to pursue and prosecute which is why u don't hear more about it. Not getting 'caught' doesn't make taking advantage of Disney right.

And 'special' magnetic paper is sold online and at most any office supply store (staples, Office Depot). And 'ink' and 'time' are just excuses in an attempt to justify what boils down to copyright infringement, if not theft.

Hi all! Glad I found this thread. I'm hoping to join the FE exchange group for our 12/15 EC on the Fantasy. Great ideas!

If you actually read through some of the listings, it actually states that you are just paying for the design file. You have to print it out yourself. I do not think this is right. I used Millipie's files for my magnets and FE gifts, but I am not making a profit off of it. If you want to help someone who doesn't know how to design, then do it free of charge...don't try to make a profit from it.

A friend of mine designed an image (not Disney related) and posted it on his website with the intention that it be free of charge to anyone for personal use. But it ended up on one of those scuzzy sites that collect images, watermark them, and then charge a fee to download the original. It was a huge battle for him to get it off that stupid site, even though they had no special claim to it. So stealing someone else's original work is a pet peeve of mine.

That said, I've requested images on the DISign board here only to be asked for a "donation" after the fact. So at least the person selling their designs (hopefully they are their own designs and not blanks copied from someone else) is being up front about the fee.

In reality I think almost all the designs I've seen use Disney images in some way though, so it's not like the designers are coming up with completely unique artwork. I've never really understood the propietary attitude some folks have when they're basically layering images (albeit in creative and artistic ways) that were created by someone else in the first place. JMHO

OK, hopefully back to homemade FE gifts now...
