Usually my outfits are not copied or mimicked much. I do outfits that tend to be a little different then the norm. Though this outfit is mainly a set, I try using different elements to complete the site. I use a color scheme not many people use because in a way it does match. I try not to be the same on each site I am on and if I happen to be similar to someone else, I could careless. I think people get their balls twisted about these things and it is childish.

I will say this
there is not rule where it says one person owns certain avi..plus you have right to put items on even if they have it on too..I mean you are not the only one who wear same three items

[Glitch]

I haven't had it happen to me -- however. If somebody has an outfit I think is super cute I will blatantly tell them I going to be their twin. If they say no then there would be no fun in that - so I wouldn't do it. But of the times I have, they usually tell me they are excited about it. And then we post in the same forums and are very silly.

I would say the only thing I'd ever steal from someone, is if they have a color combo I really like, I might make an avatar with those colors. I'd try not to make it look the same though.

Typically when I do make an outfit though, I find one item I like and make my avatar based around it.

I've dealt with this on gaia before. Someone decided to confront me and say I stole their avatar, but I actually didn't, they stole mine. x n x It really urks me when someone says that I stole their avatar when I came up with it or had someone make it for me and then they take it from me.

[Lucid:]

honestly, if I see someone else use a color combo or a layering trick that I really like, I'll "steal" it. but I always incorporate it into my own style. like, see Nightmare's awesome layering with the slant socks? I love that. I want to try it someday, when I actually get more than two colors of slant socks. but my avi's not going to look anything like hers when I do end up making it.

[Kotomi]

I'd more likely not care, one everyone could get the chance to get the item, two there are other people out there so many times who have also come up with the same idea as I had when I was younger and actually started to make a profit off it which I had no way to make it at the time I thought of it
so I guess I'm used to seeing others with the same ideas as i do on sites... or elsewhere

I don't think I've ever been accused of stealing someone's avatar, or accusing someone else. lol. Just seems kinda petty, in my opinion. I've had avatars that look similar to someone else, but they had different items, etc. Usually I compliment the other person anyway!

I do like some of the color schemes that other people use so I might try it eventually, but my taste is different than someone else. I've never had this problem but I could definitely understand how it could be annoying.

[Gwynllid]

I've found people using similar items as me to compliment their wardrobe, but more often than not, rather than point out "Ohh, you stole it" or whine about it like some freaking child, I say, "Oh hey, I've got an avatar that uses those items, too. Want to see?" and proceed to show them. Then, the person and I usually end up chatting for a good 5-10 minutes about different things that could be added or traded out on our respective outfits to improve them.

[Ladyduet]

Have you ever dealt with something like this before? yes on a couple occasions on GaiaOnline
What did you do about it if so? ignored them because they were just being stupid.
If someone really DID steal your outfit on here or any avatar site in general, what would you do? ignore and feel flattered that they stole it in the first place.

[Holly]

If they want to copy my avatar and buy all of the same items, go ahead.
I wouldn't care. e u e;

[Echo-chan713]

I did copy an avi but she insisted that I cosplayed as her so I had consensual copying

[Lucid:]

if someone dressed as me, I'd feel flattered.

[Glass Heart]

I had someone, on another site, ask me if I had any extras on any of the items I had on and once I traded with them they completely had the same outfit on as I did, I thought it was sort of neat because someone actually liked it ^-^

(｡◕‿◕｡) I actually never got a PM about stealing
someone's avi. I have gotten inspiriation
from some people's before and did my
own version of theirs but never got
a response from it though. I don't know
what I would do in that situation. I wouldn't
care if someone copied mine. I might be
flattered because someone actually really
liked what I did.

I've never had that happen. And so what? Either they happened to have the same idea...like all the pyramids in the world...or they like the style you got going on. Either way...chill out it's just pixels and doesn't matter.

People are stupid.

[Echo-chan713]

Still never had one before
