I have to agree with Linda here. Keep drawing, keep putting beautiful stuff out there and that will eventually win out over the ugly toxic stuff. I think that as soon as you put your designs in a public place like the internet, you open yourself up to be used. I like Linda's suggestion that you invite people to use your designs but ask them to email you about it first. I have your designs in my book and I make sure to mention your name as the artist (though if you could tell me your whole name I will put that in my book next to your designs). The woman who had your designs at her henna booth had all the ones that I saw the last time I visited plus some others that I had never seen. She had about 20 of your designs. I haven't been able to visit your site in the last month because of a new firewall thingy here at my job so maybe the ones I didn't recognize were just new ones you put up recently. When I saw that she had a full set of your drawings I thought that maybe you had sent them to her. I didn't talk to her because she had a big crowd around her. I don't think she copied them or printed them directly from your website (there weren't footers at the bottoms of the pages) so she may have just copied them freehand into her book. If that's the case, putting a watermark on your images wouldn't really help.
