Of course it isn't.Since 80% of this site has her style.And I guess she's not so-well-satisfied for this.

I have to say I disagree with that. In all honesty, the majority of the work on this site seems to be balto-style. And even without the "style theft," I still don't see her style as something that stands out from the crowd (but I still see her as very talented, don't get me wrong). As I said, the only theft I have seen on this site concerning her work is characters that look almost exactly like hers, not styles that look like hers. But that's just my opinion.

Look all I mean is people need to stop having Pample-Fever and really just think of some things on their own. Originality is not a bad thing.

Well yeah..things are calming down by now.But a few days ago,it has been full of these.
Ok as you say xD

But yeah,Originality isn't bad...but we always need a beggining,if they use Pample's pics(as models..like to..see the anatomy and all..she's pretty professional,and people like seeing high qualitied pictures).But it can go like this forever.

If they're using others' pictures for anatomy references, even then it's a shame to copy becase wouldn't always be correct, because even "pros" like Pample get anatomy wrong. And learning wrong anatomy for a drawing or an animal, is like learning the wrong words of a different language.

Well I never once 'freaked' out only mearly stated things. Let me say one last thing, we do NOT delete gallery's of artist's because people have similar styles. We only remove them for art theft if they steal the person's character or outright COPY an entire image and claim it as their own.

Not because they have similar styles.

I don't understand that part. What is the problem with the inactive galleries? Do you know ANY site that delete the drawings you sent if you are inactive?
That would be pretty disrespectful, to me. Both for the people who own these galleries, and for the visitors who may be interested in seeing these drawings.

But maybe that's not what you meant, and in that case, sorry.


It has already been said, but the only reasons we delete galleries are :

- If the gallery does not respect the rules. (Stolen drawings, most of the time. No gallery has ever been deleted because of copying styles reasons.)
- If the owner wants to see the gallery removed.

That would take too much time, we don't have time to go through every artists page and find out whom has been inactive.

All I can say is leave the problem alone. She will just get band for art thifing.

How dare they..?!?!
Now, I know that Amber's style looks like Pample's, but PLEASE!! About a year or so ago, before I had a style of my own, I would copy styles. At first, I wanted to be able to draw just like Amber Sea herself, then Cat Wings,(later CatLuvsZuko, who is the same person, cause her style is freakin' awsome), Catwhohas14tails, and for a period of time, Pample!! Then I made my own style, I've had it for half a year now, and I like it alot. My point is, Amber may have based it on Pample's but she has her OWN style.
Thank you.

The last post on this topic was a year ago, you need not bring it back up especially as this would cause flames.

Therefore, locked.
