I think there may be a lot more at stake for Springleap than a couple of bruised egos if they, trusting us to submit original ideas, put someone else’s artwork onto their product and claim it as their own.

They really are trusting that when we tick the Terms and Conditions box, stating that we have sole ownership of the designs submitted, that we are telling the truth.

Integral, don’t stop submitting your designs – the medium does not decide whether one is an artist or not … whether you draw with a pencil, manipulate a computer mouse or use your wedding tackle to put paint on canvass, like Pricasso (ouch!), if someone thinks it’s art, then it’s art!

None of us exists in a vacuum – we are influenced by design every day – sometimes we use elements deliberately, say, if we’re wanting a retro feel, and at others, we’re convinced the design just came together organically – but take a look at the media on which you’re feeding, and you’ll see that a lot of it will be regurgitated in your work. That’s just the way it is.
