@3 - no worries at all! I would feel worse if you sent out cards when you couldn't really afford it than if you didn't send them out, honest!
@4 - I would say something to them. For all you know, they might not have honestly known. They have snagged the icon from someone who didn't have credit listed, so they had no way to know it wasn't to be used as a base. Maybe someone else edited it too, who knows? Benefit of the doubt. Just phrase it in such a way that you're letting them know it's not cool, but you're not livid with them, and could the please change the situation (IE take it down, or at the very least, credit you as the base designer.) Let them know you would appreciate it if they didn't do it again in the future, but that you would LOVE for them to send you idea they had, and would happily make alterations for them.
@5 - that is such a design FAIL that it's WIN! That bring SO many bad images into my mind... none of which needed to be associated with shoes!!! *glares*
