But My question is if you didn't want the world to see your art, creations or work why did you share it in the first place? What is the purpose of sending a pic out to hundreds of unknown people if you didn't want it seen or used. you should know that at some point that pic will no longer have an identifying mark left on it and there is no way a person can ever trace it back to you to ask your permission to use it
I am not talking about the person that intentionally rips the pics and uses them for financial gain, these ladies and gentlemen here are justn using them for identification purposes only and most only use them for a very short time and will change pics to another one they liked. This is in no way malisciuos nor did they intentionally hurt anyone. In some small way maybe you should feel a little glad that they thought so highly of your creation to want to show it.
They didn't set out to hurt you or any other artist and still do not have that intent, you however have hurt several people and that was your intent. You could at least checked the Roo out and found out it is just a bunch of common people enjoying themselves in a harsh cruel world, it is an avenue of escape of real life. Humor and jokes, poems and stories. We laugh together and we cry on each others shoulders, we feel grief when a member loses a family member. Check us out and see if we are the bad people you seem to think we are. I don't think that is to much to ask of you.

You are, without a doubt, the SWEETEST man .....

Thank you for describing us so eloquently!!!!!

As I sit here and read everything that has gone on ... I wonder why an artist would be so angry to have their pic displayed in this forum. We are loving, caring people. We are friends that share so much with one another. We are from all over the world. No one, would intentionally steal from another person for the sake of having fun here. I know, I receive so many pics with my name on them and without. I will ask the more talented members here to add my name for me or glitter to them. It is so I can display an image that entertains my friends and makes me feel good as well.

I understand your hard work and talent should not go unnoticed. However, we are not mean spirited nor judgmental people. I would think that if you approached things differently ... you might actually have made many friends here. You might actually like it here , when you truly get to know the people we are.

Maybe sit and read some of the larger threads where we talk to one another, help people with real life medical issues, or with addictions, or better yet, where we sit and talk just for fun. You might see ... we are everyday people, just like you, but in here we are relaxed and unwind from the world outside. It seems that you might need a place like that ... try us .... you might like us. Just have your friends be nicer about things and not attack before accusing us. We are all very defensive of the friends we have here and always standup for one another.
