I honestly don't think there's any way to stop people from "stealing," designs like these. It happens to many designers, and it sucks, but the choices are:
- be angry, but flattered, and let it go
- sue them for copyright infringement if applicable
If you're a designer or an artist, you take that risk. Look at it this way: if your work is good enough to steal, then you're doing pretty well. If you keep working hard, maybe Apple will rip you off: http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/05/apples-little-problem-wit...
