Default BSGfanfilm website content lifted & put on YouTube

Hi all,

Don't know what to make of this.

Someone has gone though my whole website and lifted all the fanfilm. Then signed up on YouTube as Battlestarfanfilms and uploaded them.

It does, I suppose help promote osBSG fanfilms. The descriptions do include a link to my site amongst other prominent websites.

But I put a lot of hard work into that site, and obtained permissions from all the fanfilm creators....and they have just taken it for themselves. Haven't had the courtesy to contact me. I only found out when 1 fanfilm creator complained to me, asking if I had done it.

So is this a good thing ?

I dunno. I'm not angry as I don't think its been done maliciously, its more the lack of courtesy to me, the creators, and all the work put into fanfilms and the site.
