Bread's Bulletins
edit: i have made an extended post here: https://toyhou.se/~bulletins/1865743.extended-teelia-bulletin
if you have questions or concerns regarding this post, please read the other post for more context, thanks!
this is in regards to Teelia / https://toyhou.se/Teelia / https://archive.is/1pIeN
other names she goes by are Teelia Pelletier / LadyTeelia / Sato / Satomail / Avi / AvianaArts / AviJethArts / Jethro / Vidyal (these are all public names)
i am making this as a last resort. i didnt want to make this public, but toyhouse staff has refused to even respond to me. its been over a few year now.
*links contain archive links as well to show proof
Character Theft:
teelia has consistently split and stolen design credit from me, and the staff continues to ignore my messages about this.
she has redesigned these characters, which is fine, but my art rules clearly state that my designs are not to be split, or co-owned, which basically all these characters are.
2019 TOS: (https://sta.sh/0214qdqs9c7k)
2019 proof teelia knows/ had known that this rule was included in my tos:
current TOS: (https://toyhou.se/~bulletins/444916.tos-faq-etiquette#tos)
question i'm preemptively answering: 'how did she gain the creator role/ you were listed in the ownership logs/ you gave it to her/ etc.'
i never gave teelia the creator role on my designs. i moved my designs from my toyhouse to my deviantart (ESPEON). it still was credited to me at that point. sometime later down the line she claimed ownership of the designs, which is what started this whole thing.

this is hard for me to suggest how to resolve, as she has taken money and art from unsuspecting people with no regard and no notice of them being splits. it is not fair to these new owners. i would still highly prefer that these characters become whole again, or for Teelia to delete/remove her splits of these designs.
as it stands now, both versions of these split designs can not be traded, sold, or gifted. the 'new' version Teelia owns still are connected to the old designs whether she admits to it or not.
Patreon:
this part is shorter, but nonetheless as egregious as the former complaint. teelia is making money off of my art, which is breaking my tos rules.

the $50 tier states as one of it's perks: "Authorization of my Toyhouse (access to unwatermarked and hidden images for my characters, a TH code can be provided as needed!)"
my art rules clearly state that my art strictly falls under the Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/)
2019 TOS: (https://sta.sh/0214qdqs9c7k)
2019 proof teelia knows/ had known that this rule was included in my tos:
current TOS: (https://toyhou.se/~bulletins/444916.tos-faq-etiquette#tos)
either teelia needs to remove all my art from her toyhouse (not hide, remove), or she needs to unwatermark and unhide the art i have made for her to stop breaking my art tos rules.
Stolen Characters:
Teelia was supposed to make a full ref for two character trades, Feltlands/Synthetic(/1743225) and Circus(/1776819). A full ref, she states, as being two fullbodies and a headshot. She only made the one fullbody.
Essentially, she has stolen at least one character from me. I am willing to go as far as to say she has stolen both of these characters from me.

Us talking about the trade:
Unfinished Art Trades:
She still owes / owed me an animated doll, as well as another custom she never completed. I had completed my side of the bargain
(https://toyhou.se/907204.clock/8719808.feline-form#9353457)
(https://toyhou.se/6737049.pentaprism)
Here is her confirming with me what we owe. (Note; she did complete the drawing of Bread)
Closing Words:
I have not gotten into the mental turmoil Teelia has caused me at the end of our friendship/following years, as I do not see it as necessary at this point. For now, I do not think it is fair to let Teelia keep getting away with blatantly stealing art, designs, and essentially money from other users when her whole schtick is making and selling designs. Whether or not you believe Teelia is a good person or not is up to you. I'm simply sharing what she's personally done to me.
As a note; This bulletin has nothing to do with Teelia's LupisVulpes shenanigans, as I am not involved with her concerning that subject, though I do thank the multiple people for posting those threads as it made me feel safe enough to post this.

››› Frequently Asked Questions
What do you use to draw?

Are commissions/trades open?
Commissions are on a case by case basis right now. Most likely, I will not take your commissions. I do not do trades with non-mutuals.
» If you are interested in prices, they are located here. You can message me with a proposition on art and I will let you know if I am interested.
Do you do pings?
At this time, I do not do pings.
Can I take inspiration from your characters?
The short answer: yes, I'm perfectly fine with people taking inspiration from my characters. In most scenarios, you can take inspiration and you won't even have to ask because I won't even be able to tell. Taking heavy inspiration from my characters can make me uncomfortable, though, depending on which character and what aspects you take- Mainly their designs. There are nuances to this discussion, so if you're ever unsure you can always PM me for approval.
» Please note this doesn't apply to designs I've made and have sold or auctioned off. I'm only comfortable with people taking inspiration from characters I own myself. Do not reference art or designs of commissioned / sold work. Thank you.
