Just wondering. How many of those shouting 'DON'T STEAL MY WORK' actually did their 'work' 100% on their own? Actually made the photographs of the people in it, the models of the ships or the backgrounds they use? Until you actually do that I don't think you've gotten much of a right to scream that. I know I never claim something to be 100% made by me.
Why this post? Because it's getting rather annoying.
No need for links. People who I'm on about know it.
Select few who seem to think they're graphical gods. Newsflash, you're not. I can think of one graphical god and he doesn't do sigs. One of you (and since I don't want to use names, I won't say which) does decent work, the other is just blergh.
Besides you there's more people who do it, just weird. 'Don't steal MY style!' 'Don't copy MY render!'
I did this once... About a month ago. Half in jest, but it was a little frustrating that the day after I release something somebody pulls up an avatar of the very same subject person.
Anywho, since I haven't been gallivanting all over the Media Center recently, I can rest assured that it wasn't me. Hearts!
completely new things I create -> I hope that people copy and then tell how they did the image.
Things that I created by photomanipulation to a limited extend -> Who am I to say people that they cannot copy the darn face of Ian Mc Kellen. He is Ian McKellen afterall...
