It was recently brought to my attention, by another CC member, that one of my cake photo's is posted on someone else's website (right on the home page): www.mycakeexpressions.com
I did not give permission to this individual nor was I asked if they could use it. I have since requested that it be removed, but have not received a response. Not only is this completely false advertising, but totally unprofessional. It does not state anywhere that the photo's on her site, are anyone else's but hers... I also recognized a couple other cakes there, that belong to another decorator... I thought I'd give her ample time to respond to me, and remove my picture, but since that's not the case - thought you guys might want to check it out, and see if any belong to you. |

OMG! I found one of mine on there! And it's not even what I consider one of my best ones!
Ok...gotta admit I'm a little complimented by it, and it's the first time I've discovered one of mine has been put on another website, but I'm zapping out an email right now.
It's the principle of the thing. |

indydebi - which one is yours?!
I thought if there were other people, and several of us sent her an email, she might "get it"! |

The nerve of some people! DO you think she has done any of those cakes? I doubt it. Notice the different styles of photography in the pictures. She didn't even bother to photshop them! I feel like sending her an email as well.... I am pretty sure that I have recognized a couple of others on there too. |

There is a pink and brown cake on there that is in my fav photos uploaded by tutugirl. Unless thats the owner of the website, which I dont think so, that pic was stolen too. I just happen to recognize it as one of my favorites. |

I thought that it was interesting that under the name of her company is the word "original"... |

Here's my (CC) link to my cake. It's on her page 3, middle column, 3rd cake down.
My email went out a few minutes ago. |

Ahhhhh, my cakes never get stolen. 
cakesbyallison, your cake is on there like 3 or 4 times! How tacky. The cakes on there are just incredible-I guess she just isn't talented enough to make her own.
I loved the part that said "more photos coming soon"-I guess she has to surf the web to find more to steal.  |

That's what I thought too haha. Did you notice she also has a link to the top wedding site member. Well I went there and didn't find her website listed anywhere. Think she stole that as well?? |
