Same here, and I'd think it would have stopped after a day or two, seeing how many people got busted...
Finally back on track and ready to help you guys :D!

Yeah it's gotten to the point that its funny. Though its also funny that people make monsters and suggests stats that are superior even to legendaries.

All this cheating and plagiarizing is disgusting. I can only hope that Haypi does something about it soon or disqualify those who have been found guilty...

I just did; came back to edit my post, but since you've already captured me in this embarrassing state of ignorance, whatever =P.

It's hard to photoshop that, and if you're able to photoshop that, you're able to create your own drawing aswell.


That's not too difficult, don't even need photoshop.

Step one: Print out stolen art.

Step two: Sign artwork.

Step three: Scan into computer.

Step four: Submit to Haypi.


A lot of artists (myself included) tend to sign names in a different fashion from the rest of the artwork so that it is separate from the art itself.

It's actually really easy, like Luv2Leet said, but it's even easier to just make your own signature on paper with all the other mentioned things, scan it and then manipulate it in. One of my unit tests for a media arts course was effectively plagiarism xD we had to change the signatures on famous artworks or put our own signatures on them through the use of photoshop and scanners.

Keep in mind that most of the people that submitted drawings aren't older than 15.
Their writing skills haven't fully developed yet, and thus, it would be quite easy to spot a fake.
