thank you heather for speaking out about this when I couldn't find the words and was just too scared to say anything in general.... <3 | so a few weeks ago I saw someone post headers for sam and one of the logos/stickers used looked like it was a cut out of one that I made, + https://twitter.com/xephersdevyn/status/1316486368013373442

it was taken from this thread of plain black never normal headers, I was a bit frustrated when I saw it but didn't take any action because I don't like confrontation so instead I complained to friends and moved on until today when I clicked on someone's +

account and saw the same poor cut out of a logo that I made included in this person's header. at that point I tweeted that I was pissed off and sent the ss of this persons account to my friends to complain again because as much as I wanted to subtweet, I know how wrong that is +

and how harmful it can be and I don't want attention on me or my account because of a subtweet especially since I didn't make any effort to communicate properly with the people who I saw use the logo for a header.

anyway after I ranted to my friends I thought to check the app +

I and many editors use which is picsart. picsart is a social media app and an editing app combined where people can make and share their creations. a version of these "creations" are called stickers, they include cut outs of people and all sorts of different things. +

so realizing that someone could've cut the logo out and posted them as stickers on picsart, I checked by searching "never normal" and lone behold there's the logo... the logo that was probably one of the most time consuming to make because yes I made that one, I traced it +

I traced it from behind sam's gamer collection logo, that's how I did it. there's no secret to how I get the majority of the logos I have, I figured out the phone case trick and then found out my own ways to make them look better so I can make better layouts, that being said, +

there are a few logos that take extra effort to get such as kat's blue roses logo, sam's vulnerable guy, and a few others. nonetheless MAJORITY of the logos are pretty easy to get, just time consuming which is why when I post simple black & white headers +

I say "credit is appreciated but not necessary" because it wasn't overwhelmingly hard for me to do and I feel as if because I didn't work hard on it that credit shouldn't be necessary, I don't love asking things of people so I don't. +

I feel like I'm playing the people that give me so much credit for making layouts and telling me how talented I am when all I do is take the t-shirts and phone cases with the logos on them and make the logos into pngs. I'm so thankful for those people but I always feel bad +

because in my mind, I don't believe I deserve that much credit for something so many others do.

I think this thread is almost done, idk. I'm just trying to explain things the best that I can regarding heathers tweets about people stealing from me, I wanted to say something. +

the two people who used those stickers probably have no idea that they were stolen so I cannot and will not blame them.

there was another logo of mine that I saw on picsart and have since resolved that with the person who posted it, thank you to them for talking with me <3 +

they told me that a friend of theirs on instagram sent them this picture that I tweeted awhile ago that has most of the logos I have on it. confusing and sucky thing is that the friend doesn't have a twitter so I have no idea who they got it from and so on :/ +

idk how well I explained any of this and most of it was just me ranting but with all of it now said, I just want to finish this and say that I LOVE making layouts and I do enjoy collecting my stans logos... its like my own little hobby lmao

anyway +

thank you to everyone who gives my layouts so much love. thank you to the people that made me realize that I should just be asking for credit no matter what simply because I spend time on it and that alone deserves credit. okay to finally end this stupidly long thread +

THANK YOU to everyone who loves and supports me and everything that I make.

I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH! <3

also thank you if you read all of this holy shiz lmao and please if you take anything away from this just ask before you decide to take, most people are nicer than you think.
