I don't know what I think is more pathetic, a parent who doesn't feel that they need to educate their child in responsible net community behaviour, or a parent who decides to have a verbal stoush with a bunch of 14 year olds.
Here's a few tips: Firstly, teach your kid that plagiarism isn't acceptable. Give credit where credit is due, this is an online community that thrives on its creativity - something which should be strongly encouraged in young people - are you going to allow your child to pass off other people's work at school? Being a part of a wider community means you have some responsibilities. Parent responsibly, instead of using the internet as a babysitting tool, why don't you try to teach your kid simple netiquette?
Secondly, why don't you teach your darling, *intelligent* daughter some manners? Calling someone/thing "gay" is akin to bigotry. You wouldn't attack someone on the colour of their skin, hair, or eyes. Teach her to use intelligent insults that don't include the use of the denigration of other communities.
Thirdly, your threats are empty. Outside of fraudulent activities, hacking, and the trading of obscene materials, the internet is pretty much lawless. Learn to deal with that fact. Teach your kid to deal with that fact. Posting an IP address is about as effective as pissing in the wind. Authorities would simply laugh in your face.
Finally, both you & your kid did something that, in this community, is considered bad manners. Instead of simply accepting this fact, having a teensy bit of humility in accepting you did wrong and apologising for the faux pas, you decide to square off with a bunch of pissed off teenagers. I wonder who's more mature in this instance? And what exactly are you teaching your daughter with this behaviour?
This has gone far enough. Like I mentioned, give credit where credit is due. Accept the wider community has etiquettes that are beyond your understanding. Then dry your eyes, princess. Like Zdestiny said, get over it.

Oh, and by the way. I know you're from the United States, and this concept of might be beyond you, but I do think it's slightly ironic that *intelligent* daughter wishes to have credit for her layout, then derides those who call her on her uncredited use of an icon.

you really have to ask, if tinkerHell (copyrights go to rachael :P) actually MADE this layout, or if its one of her 'ripsomeoneoffandclaimitforherown' jobs

Yes, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States of America. Don't keep saying cities & states like everyone else should understand every city in the US. There is life east of New York, West of California, and south of Florida, you know.

Sense. And the message was to your mother, I wouldn't expect you to understand multisyllabic words. In fact, I don't even know if I should expect your mother too, either.

Oh, forgive me, I must have misunderstood that whole bit of that post not making any *sence*. If your mother was smart, she'd be parenting you in responsible net behaviour.

You're only blocking us because you are running out of comebacks and because you just don't want to taste the bitter truth which is: You are a liar. You did not make that icon, and we all know it. So stop kidding yourself obi-wan.
