Okay first off, yes stealing is wrong. u shouldn't do it. and really it's pointless because, it doesn't make u a better artist of change the fact that the other person has skill. but then again, people shouldn't go out looking for art thiefs. all these art thieft "hunters" are really annoying me. all they are is butthurt trolls. if u find stolen work, get the whole story because it may not be stolen at all. and if it is, simply meld them and go on. don't even tell them u did. it will just cause drama. and im sure none of us want that. and for the record, yes usernames, signitures, and avatars/icons are copy righted. they are directly about the person owning them. yes, if they use a public image u may use it and user names can be simular but if u are directing stuff to a spesific person then it's copyrighted. expecially on deviantArt. and they inforce it more. u can be banned and even turned in to the police.
