Hmmmm... someone does love Getty, doesn't he? Check it out:

(note: if this link doesn't work right, just go to Getty and search for "dalmation goldfish"

At least only 2 people got suckered into that one...

yes EJH, it seems that Amine has a thing for pulling a fast one on us all.

Obviously, this is an extreme case demonstrating what I've been discussing for the past few weeks.

There are others that have the same look and feel which as I can only describe as just too perfect or too much for a crazy contest like this that also includes a portion(s), in one manner or another, of the daily starting image. These images, too, must be looked at and evaluated based on the work of the psc member and not the work of a getty images photographer. Keep in mind that I'm not suggesting you all search for for proof that one entry isn't a stolen stock image but just use some common sense.

This is, afterall, just a friendly little competition site where we all try to do neat things with photo manipulation. Most here really work hard to do the best images they can but those that could do what you all thought Amine had done would certainly not take the time or make the effort to do it that perfectly for this site and it's contest. IMHO.

I really hope this will bring this subject some merit and cause people to look twice before clicking vote.

badcop, no such luck on me being amine. I just got lucky Smile

Google tells me:

Definitions of plagiarism on the Web:

An unacceptable practice of using other people's work or ideas without acknowledgement.
www.waikato.ac.nz/library/learning/glossary.shtml

Act of taking credit for ideas or data without permission or that rightfully belongs to others.
ori.dhhs.gov/education/products/n_illinois_u/data_management/datamanagement/dmglossary.html

is using another person's ideas or creative work without giving credit to that person. It includes:
www.cgcc.cc.or.us/library/lib-instruction/define-terms.htm

stealing someone else's ideas and presenting them as your own
library4.vccs.edu/connect/tcc/glossary.htm

The willful act of presenting another person's work as one's own.
www.athabascau.ca/handbook/glossary.htm

The list goes on...
http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&lr=&oi=defmore&q=define:plagiarism



IMO plagiarism should = banishment

(all sources in this post have been credited... I do not guarantee their accuracy... they are not my own definitions but I believe them... if you don't, oh well)

Looks like it got pulled Smile
When I first saw that image, before this thread started,
I assumed it had source, but that I just couldn't find it.
which happens fairly often, and now I wonder if
there's been more of that sorta thing going on than I woulda guessed.
So has anyone heard from Amine an explanation?
