A Skin By Any Other Name

Posted by Teagan Blackthorne on February 2, 2008

Seeing how Ornamental Life beat me to the heart of this issue I wont go on but to say that this issue is serious.

Here are photos of the displays. Look familiar? These pictures were not taken at ThAbyss, RaC, Redgrave, MM Skins, FKNY. They were taken at Bonnie Arado’s store. You can see why everyone is up in arms about this.

    [...] working designers is immoral, unethical and just plain wrong. Situations documented here, here, and here are causing designers to stop designing, shops to close, and leaving a bad feeling over the design [...]

    This is f*cking rediculous. I dont even know what else to say. People who steal like this really are a waste of life.

  3. Magnolia Mayo Says:

    Very sad news. I hope LL do something about it or everything will be wasted soon.

  4. Siddean Says:

    Wow, they didn’t even shoot their own ads? I am gobsmacked.

    the copycats look stretched out on my screen, and some look murky, but otherwise they seem to match up pixel for pixel. Disgusting how someone wouldn’t even take the effort to clean up their stolen products. Individuals like that need to be stacked three deep in a 60 foot deep oubliette.

    I may sound lika noob or w/e but the skin in the 6th picture that says 4skins -2eyes -2lips…What store is that actually from ?

  8. Sioxie Legend Says:

    UGH! I hate thieves! Too bad there’s no “Shrivel up and die” button. I wish those thieves would leave for good! This is hurting so many people that I know - I really wish that LL would do SOMETHING!
