DNP supply of SONY dye sub media falters

DNP’s takeover of dye sub media supply for SONY printers has faltered this month (April, 2011). The company cites issues with the handover process, and the tragic tsunami in Japan, as causes. Several stock numbers of DNP media for SONY printers are likely to become in short supply, or unavailable, in coming weeks. SONY ceased fulfilling orders themselves permanently at the end of last month. Prices for this media — which had been rising anyway, due to the rising cost of oil — may be pushed up further by the shortage. DNP aims to resolve the supply issues as speedily as possible.

Dorset wedding photographer plagiarized portfolio

The wedding photography website of a Dorset piano seller was swamped Tuesday (April 5, 2011) by UK professional photographers checking to see if it used their images. The site of Affinity Wedding Photography, of 23 Arcadia Road, Christchurch, Dorset BH23 2JF, was found to be marketing a wedding photography service to the public, using a portfolio of images plagiarized from more than half-a-dozen professional wedding photographers. The alarm was first raised by wedding blogger the RockN’Roll Bride, after another photographer alerted her to the use of her photos. All unauthorized images were subsequently removed from the site the same day, though no explanation or apology was offered.
