I never saw Zimmie ask for payment or for free sessions or anything he just offered to help edit pictures girls might not like or have problems editing themselves for free and several of you must be really bored and just flipped out on him lol. Let him worry about what he edits himself and getting sued for copyright himself geez. He got totally attacked when all he did was offer a simple edit for free. I think that was very cool of you Zimmie I may have a few pics to send you. I havent changed my pictures in over a month because Its hard for me to edit them with my iphone app on my phone. it took me probably an hour or more to do 4 pics and i messed with 1 i never fixed for probably an hour alone its similar to the girls picture you fixed i couldnt cut my background out |
If Zimmie can help you with your self taken photos then that's great and by all means let him help you. He was not attacked and helping providers with images they take themselves is not a problem. The issue was him making edits to the copyrighted work of professional photographers without their consent or permission. Zimmie posted examples of his work and he does good cutouts and probably good edits and hopefully he can give you some good results with your images but if you ever shoot with a professional and want someone else to edit the images always discuss that with the photographer ahead of time and get their permission because it opens the door to unnecessary problems if you don't. That was the issue with his service offering - just keeping things lined up to keep everyone out of trouble with each other.
Easiest way to put it - when providers see someone "using" their photos on backpage or adultfriendfinder or eros or whatever without their permission they get pissed - well when a photographer has his work "used" or altered without their permission they get pissed - rule of thumb is to always respect the work of others just as much as you want your work respected.
