Yep, his is definately just a p*ss poor copy of your image mate!! Justgoes to show he ovbiously has no artistic vision so feels the need to use someone elses work to make a few quid!
Just my opinion, before I get shouted at.

You should be flattered - imagine if Banksy got in a flap every time someone ripped off one of his pieces.
I'm sure Nick Walker would raise a smile if he saw your avatar on Flickr

the thing is, I feel flattered, but this is just wrong... and if you are tying to work hard on your artworks it just don't feel right if someone is doing this. will it have an influence on me? no, i don't think so.. but what about the other artists that are duped? and what if his buyers find out? they wont feel happy with the work they did buy from him, and they will probably will never buy one of mine be couse of the feeling they have with the works... anfd the money they spend on shite!

and posting all them hi-res images on flickr... you make it way to easy for them man!
get what he's trying to say with artistic license to replicate an image but there's a difference between using and stealing an image... he's just using the same blabla all them copycats hide behind to justify their stealing.

As far I am aware he is in breach of copyright that you own because it is your image. Look at Cartrain and Hirst. It is flatering granted but it is also against the law. What he says is rubbish about Warhol etc, forget it all. He is not making an artistic statement he has made a product.
I would definately make sure Eelus is aware of this and would email Stella Dore and POW too. They will have advisors and be able to send a much more impressive email I am sure. There is a British website about intellectual property that will give you advice. I had to ring them in an emergency and they were great. You can also officially register your image there.
www.ipo.gov.uk
I think you will be suprised how quickly he backs down. It will give the neccassary law to reapproach ETSY and make them aware.
Us forum artists need to look after each other. It could be anyone of us next. If nothing else this is a matter of British pride afgainst the bully boys of the US of A - go David - fire that sling.

He is obviously very lazy. Interested in short term gains and not that bothered about being liked. What matters to him is to make a bit of cash any which way.
Visit that website and then ring up or get someone else to and get advise. I really think you should make a stand and I also think its a good experience to share and learn from. It will be alright. His email is rather bullyish. He's a coward really.
