While I sympathize with the author and wish her the best, I don't really see how this article belongs on HN.
The 'flag' function exists for a reason.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
> "How do you prove the inspiration came from the "stolen" art, and not Disney's own film or the original story?" And even if you did prove it, is it illegal, and should it be illegal? All art is a derivation of something that came before it. Can someone reasonably claim ownership to "girl painting roses with paint brush as viewed from behind"?
And didn't she, in turn, steal the idea of Alice from Lewis Carroll?
"...I created at University and I was proud of it in many ways. Disney have used it..." If she passed any English classes or graduated from the mentioned university, then she deserves a tuition refund.

"It’s one of my favourite images I created at University" could use a [while] to my ear, but it's not so bad.
The world is a big place.

Doesn't matter; all works of Lewis Carroll's are in the public domain. As far as I know, this is true in all jurisdictions. The traditional Tennyson illustrations are also public domain. Compare with https://www.google.com/search?q=tennyson+illustrations+alice... .
Zynga got too many people... now, they're screwed. Making payroll must suck.
Marriage between equals is best or one will dominate.
If you get paid too little, you will dominate your boss.
If you cheat, you will get in over your head.
God is just.
God says...
15:9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
15:11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
15:12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
15:14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

God sucks at tic-tack-toe.
God says...
23:1 When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, consider diligently what is before thee: 23:2 And put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite.
23:3 Be not desirous of his dainties: for they are deceitful meat.
23:4 Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.
23:5 Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.
23:6 Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainty meats: 23:7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.
23:8 The morsel which thou hast eaten shalt thou vomit up, and lose thy sweet words.

The peperoni was good. I had to choke-down the cookie-dough ice cream. I eat a lot of ice cream and lots of the flavors I'm really sick of... understatement.
Mmmmm.... peperoni.

Whether it is Disney stealing lions[1] or Fox stealing songs[2], their concern for your property is non-existent, but they are willing to throw you in jail if you think about using theirs.
