Is there an option to upload to gallery but make it private?
Is there an option to upload to gallery but make it private? So, this way only certain people (like friends) can download the shared lots?

There are some out there who will download stuff, recreate it, then steal credit (as one example).

Really? I thought the original creator name was stuck on things. How are they doing this?
The original creator name is only "stuck" on there if they use the original download. However, they could easily start a "fresh" plot and then the original creator name is no longer applied.

Still not understanding how they are bypassing the system.
In my game when I download someone's house plot creation, drop it on a fresh plot then start decorating it the creator name stays on the house no matter how many times I save it. Even when I've changed it extensively the original creator name stays on the house plot.
And I would have expected the same of anything I made.
So what exactly are they doing to bypass the system, and shouldn't this be patched out?
They download the lot which has the original creator name on.
They start a new lot which hasn't had the download anywhere near it with the original creator name on it.
They rebuild and reupload.
There may be other ways but that is one, and how can that be patched out? It can't without it realising it's exactly the same, and even then you could change something miniscule about it to get round it.
