I became a member of the #creative group so I could get more active in the overall 'new happenings' that may or may not be placed into deviantart.com. Back in December of 08, I posted my concept for dAim; an application that allows you to instant message anyone on DA who is on your friends list. (

idea has become part of #creative's community favorites-- but not
my deviation. My concept seems like it was stolen. `
manicho posted a very similar deviation on May 6 of this year. Here's a link his deviation:

[link]Now I realize my deviation isn't as shiny as his, but still. He stated that he had this concept on his pc for a while-- but I had been thinking of this idea since I joined DA in 06.
I realize that two people can come up with a similar concept, but the same one? With the same title, 'dAim'? --What's even more strange is I submitted my deviation to #creative and it received a 'no' for community favorites and his, a yes.
I'm not trying to start anything, I'm just saying I'd like some credit. Whether he 'stole' my idea, or came up with the same idea is just weird either way you look at it.
