A good point to make. Seems a bit overbearing for two whole pictures,
which seem to have been modified by some goon making them pretty well
useless. The rather fast response makes me wonder if someone tipped
him off.

No, this is about what I thought too. He can sell his memberships all
he wants, but charging in and declaring he's gonna shut us down here
because some idiot who probably joined the group yesterday decided to
be a junior pirate makes me rather less inclined to want to spring
$10 (US, or about $3527 Canadian ... well, not quite, but close) for
his stuff.

Spammers, pirates, hackers bad. Artwork good. Threatening a third
party for being hit by a sneak attack with stolen artwork not good at
all.
