Brigsis, try to let it go. I had a copycat follow me a few years back. Turned out it was a young child, so I decided to just forget about it. Anyone can see by the date that you did yours first, so no worries. Keep up your good work! |

Well said LadyO. I think most of us have had it happen. And Brigsis, you know what "they" say. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. |

Thanks everyone, I kind of freaked because in the past I've had people copy me and take all the credit making people call me a liar. It was horrible. I know this isn't like that, its just a sort of sensitive topic for me, and I really don't like people who imitate me. |

could be an interesting debate brigsis,for example,when does a copy become a work of art in it s own right?Andy worhol for instance would produce variations on other peoples work but would nt mind taking the credit,as many artists do and forever will.From my own point of view,the idea of steadfastly reproducing anothers work is not only mindblowingly boring( knowing the best credit you will have is that it was well copied) but darnright dishonest and shows genuine lack of talent.So im with you on this one brigsis. |

I believe that louwho8 is a very young girl. She admires your work so much that she has tried to learn form you. (She made an excellent copy!) You are a role model. She is your fan! I have a few fans on TD and it has never hurt my feelings because, as Clo says, 'Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery'. They are young and mean no harm. |

Lizzi was well aware that Brigsis is "only thirteen". Lizzi is astonished that Brigsis would describe herself that way. |

When I see these, I see a compliment to the original ~ makes me smile twice. No need for upset, there's no bad intent in it. It happens all the time, esp with new TD users. And no need to insult the skill of the copy-cat... not exactly easy to copy someone's pic, is it? |

I don't think we mind being copied so much as the lack of credit given, Now that I'm back, several of mine are being copied again. But as some of us have pointed out, they appear to be young contributors. |
