Careful with the icons, the LJ Police will arrest you.
Although this happened in the angelinajolie fandom community, this is an icon wank, so I'm posting this here on OTF_Wank. It's a short one.

[info]p_tunia69 posts pictures of Angelina to the community stating very clearly that "If you want them, take them. I don't think it's fair to claim pictures that I didn't take myself... ; )"



The first response we see is from [info]angelwolf24 who would like credit for a couple of the icons that [info]p_tunia69 uses. Specifically the ones she made.

How silly of her.

[info]p_tunia69 has other ideas. She just doesn't "think it's right to credit someone for a photograph they did not take themselves. I mean, I could just crop those same pictures myself and you wouldn't know the difference. Please don't take offense, I just don't understand these "rules.""

[info]skyegazerlily jumps in with the weight of her opinion; "How does she truly know it's yours though and not someone elses?"

As does [info]rootchino; "I see no point in giving credit, the only thing it does is get illiterate 15 year olds who are friends of some random person that used your icon bothering you to personalize a dozen 'OC' icons for them." She is apparently impressed by a person's knowledge of HTML as seen by her comment, "Wow, you can use bold and italics. Do you know the underline one too?"

Oi.
