Comments on Don't Steal Art/Characters??? All Comments

What a mood honestly, I had someone I trusted basically take a design from me and say 'I slightly changed it so its okay to use'. I got to a point that I was no longer comfortable with them using my design (even if slightly changed) and of all the people I thought would understand that using my stuff without permission sends me into a panic attack, they did it anyway. I basically felt forced to give them """"permission"""" to try and keep our friendship but I was an idiot for doing so and I regret it to this day. 8/
