Hey Tai! Did you make that avatar of yours? Really? Do you have all the proof you can back it up with? What if it was actually My work your using for the avatar? Oh no, your stealing my work! Im now sueing you for all the money you have. Dont use that avatar anymore. In fact, dont use anymore you find on the net since your actually stealing form someone. Hey Livewire, did you make Squall from FF8? No? Then stop using that avatar, its property of Square's designers. Stop it! Yeah I'll give up my ghost one also, but after all of you give up your own. Jeez...whats up with making such a big deal. You know what, Im so glad they did it now. Im hoping they do it again. Get it through your heads, if you put your damn art on the net, get ready to defend it. Its the INTERNET. I.N.T.E.R.N.E.T. INTERNET. Your work WILL be TAKEN and used. So if you see your artwork where you dont want it, tell them to take it off. Otherwise, they'll do what they feel. Until blizzard sends me a letter saying I can't use a Ghost as my avatar for a non-profit purpose, I'll use it on any forum I post in! Lets face it, not everyone is an Artist, people depend on you to draw their favorite characters. So all they do is cut the face and use as an Avatar for a website...omg. (Why the hell am I defending a site I dont even like?). ANYWAY, listen, from now on, you artist put on whatever site you put your pictures on that these pieces of art may not be used either for anything, not even avatars, may not be adjusted, may not be formatted, may not even be changed in size or editted in any way. And post that somewhere people can read it clearly and also post it on every picture. Also, do your normal artistic signature right on the face of every character picture you make. Yeah its a shame you have to do this, but do it or start browsing websites to tell them to take it off.

A licensed piece of public property is different then a private work of art, mr. know it all. Characters from famous, or well reknown - or even not well known - pieces of art that have been SOLD as such in a manga, magazine, comic, game, story, book, movie, series, tv, or film, are free to use by and for the public, as they not only promote the product and company, but increase their sales and their PR. Private works of art, ie: works that are NOT used for those purposes, and are personal expressions and intellectual holds and rights to their original artist, THAT is art theft and breaking the law. You need some re-education boy.
You're an evil little kid that needs a good spanking, with a spiked board made out of rusted steel nails.
Infact I'm willing to bet you have no talent in anything useful what so ever...
 What I've learned from living in this country : America is a bad word, so is Religion.
