Oh hey! I'm here reposting my old journal, because some folks clearly STILL don't get it. I am sick and tired of having my art and characters traced, altered and stolen! Sick. And. Tired. Of. It.  I may not post as much as I once  did, but i am very much STILL HERE, and NOT amused by the recent thefts i've experienced in the past weeks.

SO! Once more:

MY ART AND CHARACTERS ARE MOST DEFINITELY *NOT* FOR:

*TRACING
*ALTERING
*USING MY CHARACTERS AS YOUR OWN OFF-SITE OR ON
*STEALING IN *ANY* SHAPE OR FORM!

I put my signature on everything for a REASON.

Putting my art on this site is NOT an invitation. I am SHARING what I do with all of you- and just as easily, i can decide to NOT share it anymore.  Please keep that in mind.

...And, for any of my watchers out there- If you happen to see my art being used somewhere/by someone else? Please REPORT IT, then promptly LET ME KNOW so that I can do something about it.

I know some people think thievery as a form of "flattery"- like, "OMGZ, YOU'RE GOOD ENOUGH TO BE STOLEN FROM?! LUCKY!!"

Well, it's NOT a flattering feeling, to have something you put feeling, thought and work into. So no, I don't find thievery "flattering" in the least bit- in fact, it really pisses me off, weather it happens to me, a friend, or anyone else.

Thank you.
