While a lot of people might have taken issue to "Copying is not Theft" (despite the fact that copying is breaking copyright, breaking business models, but is certainly not theft of personal property), I don't think anyone should have a problem with pointing out how important proper crediting is (note that crediting vs authorship fraud is shown on a work well out of copyright, to point out that fraud and copyright are actually unrelated)
SO-
Notice something? 99% of "OMG ART THEFT" complaints are about crediting/authorship issues, NOT copyright. It's not "You shouldn't repost my free-to-download image on another stie", it's "You shouldn't claim that YOU authored this character or artwork when you didn't" etc
Anyways, enjoy. :v I wanna make sure more people see these.
