All artwork on this website is protected by Canadian copyright law and international treaties. Do not copy, modify, repost, adapt, or create derivative works — including turning images into social‑media “memes” — without the owner’s express, written permission. Unauthorized use is theft of intellectual property and will not be tolerated. Graeme enforces his rights vigorously. He will pursue takedown notices, cease‑and‑desist demands, and any lawful remedies available under the DMCA, Canada’s laws, and other applicable statutes against repeat or willful infringers. Attempts to hide behind anonymous or pseudonymous accounts do not shield offenders from legal action. E‑commerce piracy warning: unauthorized reproduction, resale, or listing of Graeme’s designs on online marketplaces, print‑on‑demand sites, or similar platforms is strictly prohibited. Graeme has successfully pursued digital takedowns against numerous sellers on major marketplaces and will do so again; large e‑commerce sites (including AliExpress, Amazon, Temu, and like platforms) now employ automated and AI‑assisted detection systems that rapidly identify and remove infringing listings. Attempts to profit from copied or reposted designs will be met with swift takedown notices, listing removals, account escalation, and other lawful remedies. If you wish to license Graeme’s work for publication, print, or reproduction, contact us to negotiate fair, written terms and appropriate compensation. Requests to use the work “for exposure” or without payment will be declined. If you receive a message from Graeme requesting that you stop using his work, comply promptly. Non‑compliance may result in formal legal steps. — All rights reserved.
A special shout out goes to Heer Law in providing Graeme some very excellent expert legal advice and guidance regarding intellectual property and litigation.
The Social Media Donkey Award is reserved for a rogues gallery of stubborn online offenders who believed hiding behind anonymity granted them the freedom to alter and plagiarize others’ work.
