It looks like they have other fans' artwork and photographs from past cons too. All without credit and probably also without permission. They even cut off my signature on one of them.
This all violates their own terms of service: "No third-party materials. Your User Content should not contain any visible logos, phrases or trademarks or other third-party materials.

I have reported this to MGM.
PS: The new site also contains misgendering and character disrespect violating the canon source hierarchy-- mostly the same stuff copied over from the current site. Same stuff, different website and wrapper and a new coin/point/rank system. The site has posts dated 2017 but a flurry of recent 2019 activity.
