Alright, before this person gets dogpiled by the numerous base-users on this site, let me defend this with my views.

Pinkie: If you ever want to learn how to draw yourself, using a base is terrible for you, yes. However, despite my dislike for bases (since they cripple any artistic growth) they aren't morally wrong. Bases were made to be used, usually with credit given, so using them isn't bad like say, tracing or coloring over other people's art is. That's probably what Pinkie here was thinking, since the logo isn't a base so much as it's a crude color-over, which makes it outright stolen technically.

So Pinkie: Free-to-use bases fall into a completely different category than other shortcuts people take. I don't like them, but it's more of a grey area of laziness/lack of confidence than actually being a bad thing to do morally.

Everyone else: Pinkie mixed up the terms/overreacted a little bit. Yes, I can see why people who uses bases her got defensive, but don't dogpile someone who was probably just worried about art theft.
