I thought some of this stuff looked familiar, too. For instance, I had already downloaded the tree air freshener here:

ok good, glad I'm not the only one who thought this... I have scoured around the internet looking for .svg files and when I saw some of the ones she was selling I thought they were duplicates..

Which files are you talking about? Be more specific before you accuse someone of stealing. The air freshener? I'm sure that anyone with mediocre skills can make the air freshener file. Its a universal shape. Geez.

Technically I guess it isn't stealing if I gave it away free and she changed it even in the smallest way. I never accused her of stealing. Maybe she just came across a similar jpg that I did and changed it into a svg but i sure looks extremely similar. I may in the future also sell my files on etsy. I didn't mean to make you upset or imply impropriety. It is the flower medallion I posted on 1/31 and honestly I didn't look at her file to see if I could see when it was posted. I love this forum and enjoy posting so I hope I haven't caused animosity with my ignorance.

I'm not sure what you mean by Flower Medallion. Can you post a link? No, I'm not upset, I'm just making sure people don't say anything negative. Her work is awesome and she is even taking time out to help me via email. Based on the originality of her other items, why would she copy anything? She is nothing but sweet and helpful so I doubt she would do anything like that. Can you post a link to the file in question?

Okay. Sorry, but this is the flower of life symbol. This is one of the most ancient symbols in human existence. Lets just put this to rest. There is no reason to even talk about this. Please read more about this symbol before you say anything about anyone that has created a file based on it. Her file is clearly different then yours, it is smoother and has many more petals.
