Cameland

In the face of the recent content thievery controversy, I decided to do some more investigation into people who were using stuff from Cameland. The results were truly shocking.

First up, we have “J-Mee” on MySpace. Be warned, like the majority of MySpace pages, viewing it will cause irreparable damage to your eyes. Fortunately, Dom did look further and realised that this page was bringing in hits because Chau used a Cameland hosted image in a comment.

Second, we have another MySpace page, belonging to “Dan Newguy”, a 21 year old guy from Houston who claims to have eyes in the back of his head. Because he is less of an attention whore, his profile is actually private.

Next up, we have a blog called “BlankGeneration-PlayLoud” (CamelCaps and no spaces make you trendy, especially when the title has no meaning). The guy seems to like taking photos of his food and has taken three posts from Cameland - see the last post on the first page and the first two posts on the second page. Judging from the hit count, it looks like the blog does not have any visitors except the author himself.

Fourth, we have some weird fan forum for some guy called Matt Czuhry. In that thread (look at the third picture), it appears that one frame from a comic post has been taken and placed by itself, all out of context in a “random shit” thread.

Finally, we “p00nt00n” from Nexopia which has directly linked this image. Okay, half of Cameland’s posts are taken from other sites, but at least go to the effort to save it and upload it yourself as is the case here. It also prevents us from suddenly replacing the image with something stupid.

Sorry, I can’t be bothered finding/making an image to go with the post. Here’s a totally unrelated photo of the Sandridge Bridge from a recent adventure. Someone smashed all the glass panels on the display, hence the fencing.
