If my intention was to have as many members as possible, I would have opted for an open community. If I wanted, I could have over 300 members by now. Having as many "members" as possible is not my intention. The intention of the community is to have people who wish to use my styles, not just "look" around. I do not wish to lump people in the same group, so do not take offense but my experience with those who just want to become inspired by my work are people, who more often than not have just copied my style and then want to claim originality.

I have been copied and stolen from more times than I need to remember. For every 2 people that are honest there are another 3 that are not. You can thank those people for the reason why many of these style communities are becoming so strict with who views their work. I do this to have, in a limited way, control over who has access to my work for now.

I am sorry that you feel you should mot have to link back to join my community (and obviously you do not have to do it if it goes against how you feel) but that requirement is there with a reason and serves the purpose well. There are many style communities out there that do not have such requirements in which you can find inspiration. You might even see some of my own styles floating around. As for my requirement for a link back in my userinfo. It stands.

Thanks for you input.
~Design Kitten
