Icon thieves etc.  
Okay,

if this continues I´m really thinking of stopping making icons. (okay I think this was grammatically wrong, but who cares XD)
I´m not especially angry at the person, but at the fact that you now have to JUSTIFY that you´re acutally the maker of an icon, because other people obviously claim YOUR icon as one THEY made!!!
HELLO WORLD????!!!!!! ..... Oh, geez!!!!
Why are some people so stupid and evil, I don´t get it.
We icon makers really put our heart into making icons. Why is it that there are so many stupid people stealing and claiming stuff as their own??? GRAH!!!!

--> What I´m talking about <--

And here´s a direct copy of the comment:
"I'm sorry to see you feel that your icon has been wrongfully taken,however since I cannot verify you as the creator of this Icon, Icannot, in good consciousness give you credit for this work. I have hadmultiple people try to claim creator credit on this Icon so I will begiving credit to no one for this image. All I can do is state that Idid not make it myself."

You know how insulting that is for an icon maker, no????
I know this is nothing new, but it hurts everytime I see it. SOME PEOPLE ARE SOOOOOO STUPID! (T___T)
(Again this is not against the person who wrote this, but the persons who lead that person to this statement!!!)





Period.

For the record, I did verify that she did create the icon. I'd rather upset a few people than give the wrong person the credit. I like to verify things, instead of just going "Oh, you made it? OK! Let's just slap a label on it" and have the TRUE creator of the artwork gripe at me that oh that person didn't make it, I did. I know how hard icon making is and I wasn't trying to belittle her or anything. I believe that credit is due where credit is due (and I HAVE credited her) I just don't want it to be... so drama-filled. That's what I was trying to avoid.

Gomen!

Don´t worry. Like I´ve written in this entry, I didn´t accuse you of anything but those people who came to you and claimed my stuff as their own. Why are some people so stupid and do things like that??? Seriously.
You don´t by any chance still know who was claiming this icon as their own work?

And sorry for all of the trouble. Seriously stupid people like those give me headaches (T_T)
