Answer

You can certainly get credit for your work. Part of releasing a program under the GPL is writing a copyright notice in your own name (assuming you are the copyright holder). The GPL require's all copies to carry an appropriate copyright notice, however you should not remove any copyright notices already embedded in the technology.
