Thanks,
She is an hero.
high heels, cheater…
yeah, what a mexican, she’s cheating.
real ballerina’s don’t use high heels…pfff
NOOO! Don’t do it! You have EVERYTHING to live for!!! Please?
after she does it, the camera man raped her while her vag was still warm
this is cute.
you dont know wether to get a boner or not. lol dead chicks are sexx4y
How the hell did the “4” get in there colin?
For cryin’ out loud, I thought this was a tripod/timer shot. The camera man is a stupid, blithering idiot. Cute ballerinas need to stay alive. They are prettier and much more fun that way.
tiki god you are a fucking thef. It’s bad enough that you stole my work then you give it some fucked up name. THIS IS NOT A SUICIDE IMAGE YOU MORAN
You have 7 hours to remove this and any other of my images before I take leagle action.

koukei: hang yourself.
9/10 of the time I can give credit to where it’s due, and even hopefully help the original owner turn a profit on their merchandise (posters, t-shirts, games, etc, etc)
And I can see how much credit this site gave me.
Remove this image now you thief’s
koukei and your relation to this picture that is making you so upset is?
And QQ this is the internet, once an image is posted anywhere, then it belongs to everyone. There is no getting it back, or stopping others from taking it.
Yes I do, so what? I Pirate tons of shit! What you gonna do about it koukei?
Tiki will take this image down if you actually have some relation with it. But so far all you have done is whine and bitch like a child. Repeating the same fucking thing over and over. Wanna try explaining? Or having a little patience and waiting for Tiki to log on, since I’m 100% positive that he has better things to do than sit on here all day.
Quite possibly he doesn’t know where the picture originally came from. Why don’t you calm down, and wait for him to come online, which could quite possibly be tomorrow since it is a little late. You said you’d wait 7 hours, so just tough it out for 6 more.
Don’t listen to Wisebrute. Before you take ‘leagle action’, listen very carefully: If Tikigod accidentally uses a copyrighted image the person doesn’t want used freely, you only have to ask him. Either by E-mail, by a simple polite post here, or contact him on his many IM services.
He always has taken images down by request, and always will. He has never made an exception. However, having a spam attack is no way to go about this. It’s 4AM where he lives, HE IS ASLEEP. Just wait it out a bit.
Uhhhh isn’t that exactly what I said in the post before yours Caio?
I’m sorry. That came out wrong, wisebrute. I just meant to say that copyright does apply on the inernet, although enforcing it is nearly impossible. Tiki is a good guy though, and honours these requests out of the goodness of his own heart.
When he’s awake.
Your right of course, and I may have been a little childish in my first couple of replies. But watching him spam everything and expecting it changed immediately was too annoying for me to take.
WIsebrute how annoyed do you think I get every time I see someone knowingly steal my work for profit
I’m sure your angry, I would be too if someone used something I took time in making without permission. But as I said, its the internet and everything gets around fast, so I’m sure he didn’t know where the original image came from, He then posted it up here because he thought it was interesting. If he had known who created it he would have given credit, or that if you have a pay site he wouldn’t have posted it at all. Since you obviously don’t want it up, He will take it down immediately once he comes online. It is late and most people are asleep, so tomorrow he will remove it I’m sure. Sorry for being rude previously, but spamming wasn’t helping your cause.
Tiki wouldn’t “knowingly steal” your work. He always puts up a name and source when he knows them. And most people are fine with it, free advertisement and pulls in more people to your site. But he has always promptly removed anything that was unwittingly taken against the artist’s wishes.
Out of curiousity koukei, what’s your site? I like this picture, and if it’s yours I’d like to see your other work.
Koukei, if you’re old enough to be taking those pictures, shouldn’t you know how to spell “thief”, “legal” and “thieves”? Thieves is the correct term for plural thief. And again, spamming this site is dumb. Won’t help your cause. And if you think this site is just stealing, why do you come here?
If anything, it could give your work more publicity. I would be grateful if my work was posted on here. With the correct credit, of course. The easy way to get that is to put a watermark or website address at the bottom.
Indeed, thanks for sticking up for sanity everyone. Sadly, it would appear that koukei is either not the author, or has no ability to link to examples of the image on a professional level, which is generally all the proof that I require for an image take down.
I will note that:
1.) I used to have a disclaimer on every page, but that was lost during the last site layout change. I’ll be digging it back up and re-adding it.
2.) Spamming the comments section of any website is a bad idea, and will lead to the ban hammer.
3.) koukei couldn’t / wouldn’t link to their portfolio. This is a beautiful image, and I do appreciate it’s composition, and would much rather have a link to the author’s site then not, but such information is not readily available to me. Links to the original content are always preferred, even if they’re only in the comments. About 9/10 of the images on MCS are uncredited, and the ones that ARE credited are usually done so by the Super Awesome MCS Members.
4.) Haven’t received a single e-mail about this. In fact, I wouldn’t have known anything was amiss had I not hit the site on my way into work.
5.) I think you’ll find that I have no problem with removing images, given proper notification, and verification. In fact, there’s a whole category on MCS that deals with the posts that have been removed in the past.
6.) I think you’re a troll. You might have authored the image, but you’re still a troll.
Tiki, if she does prove that she’s the author and you take the pic down, can you still keep the thread around for the lulz? This has got to be one of the site’s classics.
Oh, the threads all stay, just for future reference. There’s a whole archive of posts that the image was removed from in fact. That’s both for admin purposes and for lulz factor…
Tiki gor you stupid thef.
This isn’t a suicide image. She’s been put on trial for expressing her rights to go shirtless and wear high-heels, and the court obviously found her in the wrong.
Lawyers won’t listen to your leagle issues. Sorry.
and “moran” is spelled MORON, moron.
@... koukei
If that’s you…..you have cute boobs. But, you’re still a MORON.
So butthole took the picture? Tied the noose? Is the chick?
I’m confused. If you’re a photographer who considers yourself an artist and you want the picture removed that’s fine. Legal action can only be taken if you prove a revenue stream or prove that he interfered with your own. Otherwise regular IP law and how it applies to the internet is so foggy you’d be better off suing tiki for stealing your ability to spell.
Outside of the .00002 cents the ads generated for the one post made I don’t see a profit.
It also seems odd that you’d flood this place with tears but never have the brainstorm power to post a link to your purported work.
I can only conclude that you are a gay.
I don’t think this poor soul is “a gay” in either sense of the word.
He is obviously not happy and with all that poor grammar he couldn’t pick up another man to save his life.
this concludes ‘ask an expert’.
Thanks, by the way, for the clarification of your handle, Magnus. Because you have it “mAgnUS BUTTfoorson” I thought you were saying “A US BUTT”, saying that all American’s are butts or asses. So, really, by what you said last night in the thread for Sad Boy is that your name is ANUS BUTT. Does your real name have anything to do with Magnus Buttfoorson or any of it’s derivations? BUTTFOORSON or anything with FOORSON seems to be Swedish or some other Nordic or Scandinavian country. Am I even close? FYI, there’s no need to come back in a tirade, I am just asking questions, not trying to threaten your family name or anything.
@egnilk66
Moran is a fark cliche. another hint that this is just a troll, and not a real person.
ah… I see. I’m not sure what a fark is other than a fork in Arkansas. But, thanks for the enlightenment.
I meant Americans not American’s.
Fark.com : a user submitted news website. Funny headlines are posted, which link to a story, then people can comment on that story. Kinda sorta like MCS, but not really. They’re my inspirations. I luv you Drew!
“Thanks, by the way, for the clarification of your handle, Magnus. Because you have it “mAgnUS BUTTfoorson†I thought you were saying “A US BUTTâ€Â, saying that all American’s are butts or asses.

Nope.
Is it really something like Fred Barnes or Joe Smith?
Or maybe you’re Inuit and your name is Mackukluck Gooisi or something.
Maybe it’s Patricia.
Who knows. Who cares. Anyway ANUS BUTT, it’s been nice talking to ya.
What she didn’t even give Tiki any proof? I thought maybe she was just mad at me so she wouldn’t really talk, but if she won’t even give Tiki the proof of being the artist, or at least the site url, then wtf was she thinking.
www.koukei.com.au/
There’s that dick’s website. He’s actually a really great photographer (I love his mannequin/people super-impositions). Too bad he’s also a great troll.
Nice work. It would have made more sense for that crying bitch to just prove himself and then just ask for credit/recognition. Dumbass.
I can’t wait to steal those pictures and profit from them.
koukei:
Standard Disclaimer: Unless specifically mentioned in the post, we have no clue where this picture came from. Know where it came from? Post the link in the comments, and reap the glory that is knowledge.
It’s called the world wide web for a reason, idiot.

tiki god if your not a thief show us all the link to where you got this image from. so you can prove you didn’t know who to give credit.
How is he going to prove where he got it if he didn’t give credit to whoever made it?
God, koukei, make some fucking sense please, or GTFO
koukei,
Why antagonize everyone here with your stupid bullshit?
He got it from me. I was using it to wipe my ass and I threw it at him after. He asked me “what is this shit?” And I said koukei. He thought I was referring to the Korean food we shared by candle light earlier which I had digested.
Simple miscommunication.
Now go fuck off. If you still have that noose please use it on yourself.
thefing ashule.
he put this image up, so all I’m asking is where did he get this image from.
And the answer I just gave you will bring about as much resolution as the one you’re so desperate to hear/read.
So fuck off.
koukei is just trying to aggravate people here, ignore him, Tiki will link it since koukei has indeed provided links to his work. As good a photographer as koukei might be, he still posts only to incite anger.
He got it from the internet you dumb fuck.
Welcome to it.
wow apparently you’re 46, and never learned how to spell properly, nor how to have civil discourse?
Once MCS receives a proper takedown notice the image will be removed.
I’m not trying to incite anger. I’m just sick of people stealing my work then claiming they don’t know where they got it from.
Hey koukei, if you really want to claim something before putting it on the WORLD-WIDE WEB, maybe you ought to sign it somewhere, or add a watermark.
Also, the English language is NOTHING like art. If you make a mistake with it, you can’t claim it’s an artistic expression. Please stop maiming it.
tiki god yeah I’m shit at spelling but I don’t steal. I have proved that I own © on this image.
So to have you remove MY work from this site I have to
The subscriber’s name, address, phone number and physical or electronic signature [512(g)(3)(A)]
Identification of the material and its location before removal [512(g)(3)(B)]
A statement under penalty of perjury that the material was removed by mistake or misidentification [512(g)(3)(C)]
Subscriber consent to local federal court jurisdiction, or if overseas, to an appropriate judicial body. [512(g)(3)(D)]
when all you have to do to steal my work is right click copy past.
Come on show everyone you are not a thief. show us where you copied this image from.
I know exactly where I got it from,
it came from one of the chans.The idea that this information is going to help you however is ludicrous, as every board using the*chaninterface is a giant clearing house for images with literally thousands of them being posted and deleted every hour. If you’re going to get your panties up in a bunch when people repurpose your images, by all means, get them up in a bunch. But don’t threaten ‘leagal action’ if you don’t even know how to spell legal.And as for inspiring anger, that’s usually the end result of your tirades, and defacing a website with spammy comments.
ladyoftheorb sorry I’m shit at spelling and the anger I get the worse my spelling gets. I don’t watermark my images because I find watermarks distracting and ugly. This doesn’t mean people have the right to steal them.
Again for dipshit.
Prove you’ve lost money in ANY way or you have NO and I mean ZERO fucking legal recourse. ZERO. NOTHING.
Take this to a lawyer. See how hard they laugh in your fucking face.
Also I think I’m the only one here who thinks your pictures are fucking stupid. You’re a talentless little prick and your pictures look like something a 14 year old girl who admins a Tarsem Singh fansite would come up with.
Take your anger and go fuck yourself.
There is no possibility of legal action. None. The thought is even a joke. You’re a joke.
There has been no theft. When you display something in public domain on the net it becomes a free for all. You have two options: 1)provide precedent proving otherwise or 2)don’t post anymore.
tiki god I admit I cant spell, Everyone who reads this thread can see I can’t spell and I own this image. But they can also see the lack of honor by the Admin on this site.
I think all koukei wants is a detail about where the image is from, am I right? Is that so hard to do?
I doubt he’d understand anyway.
No one (and I feel safe speaking for the entire population of MCS) sees the admin as lacking honour or as a thief. We just see you as a whiny douchebag.
For once I agree with mAgnUS. Tiki has proven that he’s more than willing to yank an image once the proper channels have been followed. But it would be bad business to just take the word of any schmo who logs on and says “it’s mine, take it down” without any kind of proof or documentation. And besides, it’s not as if he’s making millions off this site and selling this shit for profit.
So far, all I’ve gathered from this topic is that koukei can’t spell, so that’s his defense that it’s his picture, egnilk66 has complete gone insane, tiki once again rules, and I am deeply disturbed that I agree with Magnus. The Internet confuses me…

Proves who the © owner of this image is.
He might not be making millions from this site but he is making money by stealing peoples work and displaying it without credit or permission. The longer this image stays on this site the more people will see the lack of integrity of the owners of this site.
They now know real © owner dose not want his images on a site that supports theft but they keep displaying it.
Ugh, calm down. This site is MADE on images from other sources. You would be hard pressed to find one.
If it makes you stop shitting bricks, I will hereby bow down, and worship at the altar of your autoerotic asphyxiating ballerina.
*find one that isn’t taken from another source.
MrPsychic
Insane? how?
My point is * I * could sign in with the username koukei, say the work is mine, link to the original and demand he take it down, all the while spamming the site with poor spelling and worse punctuation. He would have no proof that I am, in fact, the artist simply because I signed on with the username and linked to the original site. I could sign on with the username Luis Royo, link to Royo’s page and demand that any Royo images be removed. That in no way proves that I am Royo and the images are mine.
exactly the owners make money out of stealing others work and displaying the hear.
This is my work and I dont give this site permission to them.
Koukei…
You’d better have look here then….they’re using your images too. I don’t think they’re properly crediting you there either. So, go spend some time there and let us breathe a little.
There’s still the issue of hard, physical (on the internet) proof that you are said artist.
@koukei,
Putting a © on your site doesnt prove that you own those images. You need to go through the proper steps to ensure that you actually do own the copyrights to said images, which i doubt you have actually done. And even if you HAVE done that, your copyrights accorind to YOUR own site, expired Jan 1st, 2007.
So unless you can prove that you actually own the copy rights to the image in question (A © on a website isn’t sufficient proof.). There is no legal way to force Tiki to remove the image.
The easiest way to ensure you own the copyrights to something, is to mail a copy of it to yourself. that way it gets an offical government seal verifying the date that it was mailed, and after your letter gets sent back to you with the disk, or orginal print of the image, you can safely distribute it without worry of copyright infringement, and if you ever needed to take someone to cvourt that envelope with the government stamp would be proof of when you orginally created the document. But i doubt you have that unopened letter from yourself soooo Shut the fuck up and stop whining, you should be happy that there are more people appreciating your “art”.
And considering MCS is getting on average over 100K hits a day and your site doesn’t even get enough hits to show up on any site comparison tool i can find you should be THANKING tiki, not insulting him.
Well said…. Kero’s spot on on this one…. you should be thanking Tiki…..and me. YOU SHOULD BE THANKING ME, you fucker. Why? I haven’t the foggiest idea…but you should be.
Should be thanking you for being the bright-ass ray of sunshine that you are. 😀
koukei is by far the dumbest person I’ve encountered on the internet this week. Granted it’s only Monday but the bar has been set pretty damn high.
I mean…his site isn’t even for profit. It’s a public portfolio. Kero is totally right. koukei owes tiki money for getting his name out there.
Unless you’re ashamed of your work? Is that it? You’re ashamed and you want it taken down because you’re like me and you think it’s fucking dogshit?
Are you sorry your work reminds me of something scribbled in a fat 14 year old girls notebook followed by a poem about how after she cuts her wrists her step-dad will be sorry he yelled at her? You want to apologize and save any others from being subjected to your crap?
“exactly the owners make money out of stealing others work and displaying the hear.
This is my work and I dont give this site permission to them.”
Your wants, needs, and demands amount to a heaping pile of fuck all. Your permission is not needed. Welcome to the internet.
At least I’ll have a story to tell about what a douchebag this “artist” is when I see his “famous” work somewhere. Like a bathroom stall at TGI Fridays.
egnilk66 flickr gave both myself and the model credit. not like this site.
You know, I see your keystrokes, but all I read is “wahh wahhh wahhhhh wahhhh”
I’d like to know how you can post something on the internet, and try to take credit for it.
Once it’s posted on the internet it belongs to the internet.
Its simple remove my image and I will crawl back into the toilet that I came from.
No.
Your move, Ace.
Kero is right. Saying “Copyright” does not mean it is legally copyrighted. The mailing thing works, and I know there’s also the Library of Congress (at least for writing, I am not sure how that works for photography).
You can’t slap a © on something and say it’s copyrighted.
Granted, you’re only “required” to provide such evidence in a trial, but since you threatened legal action, you may as well be prepared. 😀
The thing i find funniest about this is that had you e-mailed Tiki, and simply asked him to remove the image, he would have done so no problem. It’s happened before. But since you were such a douche about it I doubt that will happen now. Unless of course you can come up with solid proof that you own the image, which as I already stated is impossible for you to do at this point.
Maybe next time someone ” ” steals your image, you’ll just ask them to remove it nicely instead of being a giant cock about the whole thing.
Seems to me like you’re still in the toilet, ace (if magnus doesn’t mind me stealing the moniker for you, since keikoui is too damn annoying to type).
Under the Berne copyright convention, a work is automatically copyrighted at the time of creation. Registering your copyright helps your case if you take legal action, but its not necessary.
Mailing it to yourself creates a legal verifiable date of creation, but does not copyright the work. (IANAL).
Still, koukei should quit complaining in the comments sections and contact tiki directly.
www.myconfinedspace.com/about/contact/
Kero
I have sent 2 emails, The first was a angry one with lots of F’s the second I asked why I had to employ a lawyer to complete a DMDC to have my image removed.
I have never needed to do a DMDC before why is this site so special.
Maybe you should ask yourself why you want it removed from a site that gets more notice than your own? Or you could read mAgnUS’s post, since he thought it for you. Asshat.
“The first was a angry one with lots of F’s ”
Do you seriously not see the problem with this?
