Today I have permanently removed an account from HiResCovers, due to persistent cover stealing. Netjunkie is Cover Fan has been downloading covers from several sites, and uploading them to other sites, without consent from the creators. I spoke to Netjunkie is Cover Fan last week regarding this, but it appears he is still uploading to other sites, covers he has downloaded from here.

The reason I am making this public, is I want it known that we will not accept this here at HiResCovers, and no matter what user group you are in, your account will be removed. The rules clearly state '9. You may not upload ANY art work to another site, that you have downloaded from hirescovers.net, without the express permission of the original creator. Doing so may lead to a site ban.'

If you have paid for a subscription, and are banned from the site for this reason, you will NOT be entitled to a refund.

Please make sure you read the site rules, like you agreed to when originally joining the site.

Yeah just had a look Demon and saw that Zantasha's Zodiac cover and Maladroit's cover have been uploaded. Is there anyway of contacting cdcovers and asking them for the ip address?

/Edit - also found Zantasha's Pirates Of The Caribbean - At world end cover aswell
