The Big, Bad Bullies on the Playground

As an artist, I often have gripes about plagiarism and independent artists getting ripped off. One bully in particular is Urban Outfitters. Now, back in the day they used to actually have some decent clothes. They were trendy and hip, of course a little bit overpriced at times, but for the most part they had a good sense of unique style. But I guess the style, I'm afraid, isn't always their own. The bloggers over at Urban Counterfeiters have made it their mission to set the record straight once and for all.

And while we're on the subject of plagiarism, let it be known that Logoworks.com has been stealing ideas as well, unveiled by Bad Design Kills. By stealing the designs of others they're not only ripping off their clients, but the original designers as well. Of course, they deny it but the evidence pretty much speaks for itself.
