I offer freebies from time to time and it makes me really happy to see them being used on NiteFlirt and on the internet. It does NOT make me very happy when I come across custom designed graphics for clients on pages and websites that they did not pay for or belong to!

Just because you “find” a graphic on the internet does NOT mean it’s free or for public use. It upsets me even more when I contact people letting them know they are using graphics without permission and I get a snotty attitude or get a reply saying “they found it” on the internet. If I’m writing to you and asking you politely to remove graphics - it’s certainly not for my health or to try and start an argument , but to let you know you are using stolen graphics.

 Graphic designers KNOW their own work when they see it silly people. It kinda makes one not want to offer ANYTHING for free, if other stuff is being abused or taken without permission.

I am considering starting a “shit list” of websites and pages that blatantly steal my work and client’s work - perhaps publically shaming the thief might help?

It all really disgusts me - the thievery, stealing and blatant attitude of people today.
