I am not an artist so maybe my opinion should not count. But here it is anyway. I’m not sure how your scale goes: I will assume -10 is not offended and actually proud 0 is Meh and 10 is very offended. Using that scale I would be a -5.
It seems to me that any time my work is displayed or parodied I am getting free publicity. It introduces my work to a different audience. It shows that someone valued my skills.

Have you seen any Jessica Rabbit porn? Oh my!

Somewhere between “meh” and “excited and honored”, depending on how clever the execution is.

I would have not one single fuck to give, unlike them.

-10. It always amazes me where there isn’t porn about something.

10, really offended. How dare you take my image and craft and turn it into smut.
It’s like making Disney characters cartoons into porn. WTF, must everything be twisted into inglorious smut.

-10 The only things that truly offend me are hateful speech/acts against groups of people, or stuff that causes suffering/damages the earth. Reproduction can fall anywhere on the axes of humor, disgust and joy depending on who is doing what to whom.

I accept the rule that states if something is online, there is porn of it.

- 10. I’m actually honored that someone is interested in my work enough to ever cares to make fanfic from it.

0. I’d be kind of grossed out, but also weirdly flattered. Then grossed out again.

-10. Rule 34 makes exceptions for no one.

^ My take exactly.

Um gross. I would be pissed. I didn’t create something for that purpose. So why are you using it like that. And if It’s got a copywrite on it, would that not be illegal?
