Heya.
I didn’t say that you were ‘stealing’ my work. (Any mention I may have made beforehand about removing watermarks and possibility of having your work stolen was being said in general terms, but wasn’t directed at you, as you weren’t taking credit for it or anything like that).
While I’m glad my picture could’ve served as exercise for you, I still didn’t really appreciate that being done. Yes, the amount of watermarks could have been seen as excessive. But they were there for a reason, mainly because of previous events occurring.
It more so got to me a bit because you removed not only the watermarks, but my smaller signature in the upper left hand corner. If you at least kept one of my watermarks/signatures up there, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have minded as much. But removing all of my forms of art credit did rub off on me the wrong way.
I do thank you coming here and wanting to have your say in this. My apologies if there was any negative things said towards you if folks on 4chan were making mention of it. Wasn’t my intention to cause trouble for anyone, but all the same, I just really don’t appreciate that with any of my art. <:)
