No one is attacking her for the fact that she traced the stuff. They are simply saying that it's silly to deny the fact that she did it even though there is blatant evidence that she did.

Also, once again since you seem to randomly skip bits when you're reading a comment, she wanted to charge people for money and that is just not right. She wouldn't have drawn the full thing and even if she edits a few things, she's still copying someone else's work. If she was talking to the artist and they got a share of that commission money, that's fine but she is simply taking full credit for something she didn't fully produce. THAT was the problem, not the tracing.
