Would be nice if they credited you. :(

Wow, that's terrible. It must be infuriating to see the crappy Boxxy edits, too - that's like adding insult to the injury of them stealing your artwork to begin with.
Definitely need the watermarks, sadly. Ahh...
it is a sad day when artists are unable to post artwork without them smothering them in watermarks to stop people using them without crediting the original author... iv seen flash animations and music go down the same route, even my crappy flash animations had someone steal them... it really pisses me off when someone such as yourself is targeted and not given credit... even if it is a mashed up version of your original... you should of been given credit like you said... its a shame, but this is how the world works now... no one gives a dam :(
