It seems like plagiarism is becoming the norm. Just think about it; with millions upon millions of images online, and the ease with which one can use certain software, plagiarism is going to be the norm, not the exception. Especially if you make work that is easy to copy or emulate and just right to add something to (text, dates, anything) it's going to get stolen.
Anyone thinks their a designer nowadays.
If some retard in an internetcafé opens the GIMP or Photoshop Elements he or she can make a print-ready poster, flyer or "art" by simply Googling. If you don't want your work stolen, don't put it on-line - this is a very valuable lesson I learned.
Still. One likes to be online. Why? Because it is a showcase, an international, easy-accesible place for you to show off your skills. Your mad skills. Either figure out a way for people not to be able to steal your work (use dA's watermark, take only photographs of you physically holding your work or make it very low resolution) or get off-line.
It hurts. I know. It hurts - a lot. Especially if they do not stop. But what do you expect when so many people use the internet?
