I just felt the need to warn you all (if anybody still even checks this out occasionally): I used to have "Are You Drawing At Me?", an art blog. I deleted it last year because I had lost scanner access and couldn't update the blog. Well, at some point, apparently a spammer grabbed the url/blog address, and is now using it for spam bait. I have little doubt I'm the only person this has happened to, so a fair warning: even if you have no intention of using a blog again, don't delete the blog if you can avoid it. Keep it, at least to prevent spammers from using it and sullying your own good name and reputation.

Update. It seems my email to Blogger did not go unheeded. "Are You Drawing At Me?" (the ripped off/spam version) has been removed. If Blogger allows me, I'll try to re-capture it, just so it doesn't happen again.

You are not, flag it as inappropriate content and blogger will review, and pull it off.
That's what they said, except I informed them that the blogger toolbar up top (which has the "flag" button) is *optional* and these spammers turn said option *off*, so there's no way to actually flag it.
