Ummmmmm I'm an artist and I've had some of my art iconed, and to tell you the truth I couldn't care less if they credited me/asked my permission or not. Yeah, it takes hours for me to do one piece of art that's half-way decent, but once I put it on the internet I say it's free game to anyone. Slice it, dice it, saturate it up.

Cry moar, BAAAAW, waaaah, etc.
