I am missing something here.

So, I was just surfing around while finishing my dinner and waiting for the girlchild to finish with her evening ablutions, and I came across something that made me say "Huh?"

Someone made icons using screencaps from a recently-released DVD, and was exhorting people who chose to use them to give her credit as the creator. Not doing so, she said, was THEFT. (Caps hers, not mine.)

So apparently, illegally copying images from a movie and making them into icons is just fine, but by golly, copying the icon is just wrong.

I don't get it.
