Vinylfantasy, you are right! The game producers borrowed that exact image. Now we know how wide-spread Ayumi's popularity is.

Hopefully they credited the artist because it's an amazing vector. If not then that's just plain rude. I don't mean for it to sound snobby, however I know that as an artist I hate it when people steal my stuff and say it's theirs.

I think someone should get intouch with the guy who made the vector and find out if he knows they used it. If not i can smell a law suit lol

Not really...

There is SOME resemblence, but I wouldn't go as far as saying it's her spitting image.

Actually, it is her splitting image lol . The vector was made from this original Ayu picture.

As soon as I saw that screenshot from the game I immediately thought of that vector. I REALLY hope they're not using it without permission, because it's truly awesome and a lot of work has obviously gone into it...

Well not just the guy who did the vector, but the magazine and/or Avex which holds the original copyright to the photograph.

I don't know if, legally, they have to do anything for the use of Ayumi's image (not sure of Japanese laws in this case). Ayumi's image is used in dramas and anime on occasion, as well, and no one ever mentioned legal stuff then.

I left a note for the guy on deviant art.. hopefully he'll respond to it..
since it's like to see his reaction..
I showed him the two pictures.. the first of just the screencap with the small portion.. then the part with his vector in it to show what we all saw..
I guess we will see (hopefully) what he says!

Geez, I don't remember the anime that her "Rainbow" poster was in but I saw a screencap of it. Also, there was a signed "Rainbow" CD in the Masaharu Fukuyama drama "Bijou ka Yajuu". Hmm, looking at my two examples, it looks like advertising for that album!

Okkkkkkkkkkkkkkay.... here is the reply to my note at Deviantart from the guy who did the vector

Deviant: *cd-marcus (#199368262)
Date: Dec 12, 2005, 4:34:03 AM
hey, thank you!

and i can't believe on this...
i've never been contected by the company responsible for the game, never!
i'll check my previous notes and emails to have sure, but i think i'd remember if i had given permission for using my work in a game.

this is not a simple case, like taking the image to make a wallpaper or something...
it's a game and they are selling many copies using my work (well, it's a small part of it in, but it still is my work!) and i should, at least, have been contacted and have my name published in the credits.

thanks a lot for informing me,
i'll look for assistance and see what is possible to do.


Needless to say he was not very happy about it.. .. I wouldn't be either.
