I never like my own work. I'm my own toughest critic. Sometimes I make something and do a Napoleon Dynamite-milk-tasting-type 'Yesssssssss' but then I post it here, and seeing everything else, my stuff looks like arse.
Dont be stupid, everyone has different taste, some people even think i have weird taste but if it catches my eye i will try my best to get it. I dont like most of my older things (havent made one for a few months) but alot of people did like it, others didnt...it depends on the eye of the beholder
i don't know of any rip on my sigs it cud be but anyways, i'll just take it like kirbir does i'm not in love with my work anways and if they'll rip one of my latest sigs, some months later i see it an at that moment i already know the sig they ripped was ---- xD
i dont think ive ever been ripped, nor would i mind it if i was. like kirbir said, its like a compliment that some one likes it so much to steal it. but i do despise rippers, someone ripped something on my forum and it turned out he was actually a pretty good designer. idk why he would rip.
I don't even know how many times people toke layers out of my psd's when I give them away at other sites LR. I've probably seen about 3-5 tags that have layers from a tag I made. I also get ideas emulated.
