My name is appearing twice on my own gallery item. I've been working on this lot for several hours tonight. I finished it, uploaded it to the gallery, but then decided to put the lot in a different place. So I placed it on the lot from my own library (while it was still listed on the gallery). I decided to tweak a few more things, saved my game, then uploaded it to the gallery again, deleted the old gallery listing.

Then, I click back on the newer version to make it my showcase, and I notice that now is says "By: Hellkittenn Originally by: Hellkittenn". It's making it look like I stole the item from someone with my name, but if you click it it brings you to my profile. But I don't understand, why when its MY OWN CREATION, it's showing my name twice like I took it from someone. Is there any way to fix this? It's really getting on my nerves.

Hi @Hellkittenn 

This behaviour is as designed.  That system is there precisely to protect your creations from being stolen. 

I do not believe it causes confusion, as both ID's are the same. (Although I take note of your feedback)

However, If I download any of your creations, do a few tweaks and upload it again, it will appear as:

By: SimGuruIcarus

Original by: Hellkittenn

Implying that I'm not the original author of the creation.

Hope this helps! 

Cheers!
