Is it against the rules?

Alright, so I posted a thread in the artist abuse forum a while back where I suspected an artist stole an image. it seemed pretty clear-cut to me since their skill level was pretty low, but then jumped very high, and then back to the way it was before. (the problem was that the character was from a very popular anime, so finding the original was near-impossible.

The image seemed to ba a sprite or doll base. Someone told the artist and now the artist watches it. Though I haven't found the image I think they stole, 4 other pictures in their gallery line up perfectly with with image they used making it seem like a base. Two other images in their gallery also seem to have the same base-sprites/dolls for the picture.

Would that be against the rules?

If it is [i]their[/i] base, then it is perfectly acceptable, even if it is a bit distasteful.

Otherwise, no.
