    it could be flattering in a way because ur art is taken by others.. but frustrating at some point because they took it for their own pleasure...

    there are just some who took it to hear praises for themselves.. but there are also some who took it and will fight for it.. lol.......... i know 2 people who'll fight for what they stole til they get banned.. XD

    well.. it's not like we can stop those kind of people... i just wont tolerate it when it comes to my art being stolen.. they can fight for it whatever.. the original artist will always prevail... lol...

    You have every right to be PO'd at that person. Stealing art is wrong. But you can't help but feel a teensy bit flattered, can't you? Your artwork is amazing! You shouldn't cut yourself short. As far as I'm concerned, your art is up there with all the greats! ^^ Keep up the stunning work! ^^

    @Teapot Domescam:

    there's actually no need for comparisons coz we have our own style of drawing.. and who cares if one is better than us.. lol... we are drawing for fun.. at least i am drawing for fun and to make myself better for my future profession..

    even though the right clicking is disabled, there's so many sites these art thieves can get other drawings from... i think the only way to prevent this is to make them think that your drawings are everywhere and they cant take it away because other people know that you did it and that u have complete ownership of that piece..

    uhh.. yeh.. my drawings are everywhere that is why i get reports from people about these art thieves..

    if they think i'll stop posting drawings because of these art thieves, think again.. if i stop, they'll just claim something again and there's no other way to prove myself or there'll be no one to bash the truth to their faces.. lol....

    that is why "think before they act"... good thing i didnt draw something that can be stuck under their noses.. lol..

    *nods head* Yeah totally, I agree with everything you just said. You like, took the words out of my mouth. I know people who are better than me, but that doesn't make me a bad artist. I just have to accept that I have my own style. I don't understand it either why art thieves get pleasure in hearing praise that doesn't even belong to them. It's pretty funny and stupid once you think about it. But hey, the internet is a cruel place. I think the otaku should disable right clicking or something to prevent it.

    Fortunately, I don't think they knew my PIN. However, I thought I had locked my car door. Apparently not since I received a call the next day about some suspicious acitivity. Some people, I swear. I have no clue who the thief (or thieves) is, but if I ever found out... Look out!

    hmm.. it's good that i've hunted them down... 2/3 got banned.. the other one locked herself in her private world so the mods couldnt do anything about it til the creator of that site take action.. but yeah.. i wont rest til those art thieves get what they deserve.... *banned*

    i so agree that we have our own style.. that is why we need to work more and practice.. there's always someone above us.. i know a lot of artist waaaaaayyy better than me.. and i am trying to reach their level someday.. although it will take time but with hard work and practice, nothing's impossible.. we all just need to stick to our own style and believe in our capabilities.. we can do it.. yeh.. all our efforts will be realized anyway.. and thats the real pleasure in all of your hardwork..

    art thieves should really think.. the words like "wow ur so good", etc are not meant for them anyway.. how can they be satisfied in those words not for them... ignorance.. they really need to think their brains off..

    Man, your work is beautiful. ( I simply enjoy the save to the computer option so that I can have beautiful artwork saved on my computer to look at when I wish and sometimes format it for a wallpaper for myself, but not to post and claim as my own.) Stupid art theives

    Wow you are an amazing artist. I am jealous of your shading, but I guess we all have our own styles, so maybe I am wrong in being envious. Anyways, luckily I have never gotten my art stolen, but I feel bad for you. Too bad you can't hunt them down and kick their ass. Wouldn't that be too good to be true?

    It if makes you feel any better... Just a couple days ago, I had someone steal my bank card! The lame-brains spent $300 of my hard work! So, yeah, thieves are thieves. It's a crying shame that you seem to be a victim so often. Hang in there!! *hugs*

    that girl in gaia... i dont know what happened to her.. she's been hiding in her private profile.. i guess she's too ashamed to face the public coz her name has been tainted.. her fault anyway.... lol...

    i dont think there's a point in understanding why they steal drawings.. thats just immature.. if they want the pic, they could've just grabbed it and post it in their page but editing out the original artist's name and saying u did it is just an act of ignorance and lack of attention...

    i've heard this from other site.. just gonna quote.. "Let them rot to death with their own ignorance" yeh i guess thats right... they're not the one being praised anyway..

    btw, is ur description cut off ? i saw in DA it was longer than this lolx.

    whatever anyway, art stealers gotta get a life of their own. they want to be famous using ur drawings and/or other people's drawings, they are as good as dead people who cant use their own life to make a name for themselves.

    i hope i made my point clear !

    and no pro artists got impersonated.. pro artists are waaaaaay better and they have good drawings too.. why me..?? am i posting my art too much? should i stop posting...? i have a lot of thinking going on.. but... if i stop, art thieves will just keep popping and this thing will never be proven..

    i seriously wanna cry when i saw that girl said she drew it and accused me of stealing it... gaaah.. *shoots her* she's banned now anyways.. bleh..!! XD
