How-to rip off!

Has anybody noticed the new how-to for the kool-aid pie. That's my how-to pic. I'm just a tad upset about that. I can understand if they posted their own how-to, but to use my picture for it! Not to mention she used somebody else's version pic as well. Now maybe I'm making too big a deal of it, but it's kinda insulting for someone to steal from you and present it as their own. Well not kinda, it just is. I AM MAD!

Oh yeah! That's really cheeky and she shouldn't have done that without asking your permission first, because nothing about that how-to is original now. Message the person and ask them to edit out your picture or remove the project?

Oh yeah, I commented on it and messaged Crafterella about it. She messaged me back and said that she unpublished it and messaged that person. I'm satisfied now.

Yeah, guess so. But she used someone's version pic too! And get this, the only original pic she posted was a pic of a "grape" flavor pack for a cherry pie!
It just really made me made when she not only used my pic but someone else's too.

thats right, crafterella was saying it was similar, because she made hers a liquid, and I was like, I would like to know her source. Because it seems a bit too similiar, but if she got her recipie elsewhere...its ok..

but if it was inspired from anyone...it should be known,

and its happening more, by newer members. They copy and it gets put up, all they are doing is adding one material differently
