Look at Ice - Bori Frozen.
Does that look familiar?
Yes, it does because cat_on_a_mat stole it and won the random contest!

Then mail TNT and see if you can get them to do something, just remember to remain polite and calm

Figures. Judging by how little effort they put into things now, it doesn't surprise me that the judging was somewhat slack. -.-

:o This is outrageous! We should contact TNT!

..you're kidding me. *looks* :( That's really rotten. It's really not fair to the person who ACTUALLY took the time to create the icon. I hope TNT does something about it.

Thats not right. Not at all. You know what, maybe put your name in each of your avatars, really small, but visible so that nobody can steal them. Even make it flash for 0.001 of a second, so that if someone steals it you can prove that they stole it by going to that specific frame or something.

For now though, mail TNT about this. I bet that person is feeling all smug and smart now :x Mail TNT, tell them you insist taht he stole your avatar. All you have to do is look at that person's pets, trophies, scores, anything, and you'll see that he's noting more than a 20 month old New Member.

I hate theives more than anything. Lousy good for nothings... Report him!

EDIT: wait, I misread your post. You never said that you made the avatar page. Heh, does that mean that cat_on_a_mat stole from a friend of yours or was it indeed yours?

Odds of TNT giving a crap about it and doing something about it: 0/oo(infinity).

(TNT has, in the past few days, proven themselves to be incapable of running a site properly, thus the comments.)

The avatar boards linked everyone to that page.
And my friend told me about that.
My friend isn't lxopets2 though.
My friend saw that avatar on there before the random contest started.
TNT is deleting all the boards saying about that avatar being stolen.

I see the irony in that! Stealing Ice Bori Image Get's you frozen :lol:

...but maybe that is the same person with multiple accounts. Who knows. Neomail the creator and ask that person to see what is going on would be prudent. Although you think ldopets2 wouldhave submitted on thier little_dragonoliver account where the trophies are kept.

EDIT: I neomailed

I noticed that one of the avatars that won the Random Contest this week was one made by you (frozen Bori) but I wonder if it was stolen. If that is another of your accounts, please dismiss this message. If the avatar was truly stolen, please report it to TNT.

Exactly how people describe me! Wrong but funny!

I know. :P I myself saw it before the contest. o.o

Will they choose a new person for second place when this person is frozen? They might just move one person up from third place, or they could just leave it as nine 2nd place winners.

They won't freeze the person.
