The Winds of Change...
It's the end of an era...
*Edit* I started this post as a humorous thing based on the above link, and I left it in for your amusement, however -now I read this, and I'm scared that it really is the end of an era.
Some would say that art theft has become so rampant thanks to the ease of said theft thanks to internet photos/galleries that we shouldn't bother trying to stop it. That, of course, it bullshit. What could possibly be worse than throwing our hands in the air and saying "We can't really stop it..." you ask? Well, I would say that helping those who would steal the intellectual property of others without credit or compensation of any kind ranks pretty highly.
Stay tuned kids.
