y'all do realize if you keep reposting gifs without permission/credit/following the gifmakers rules, gifmakers will eventually get completely fed up with all of you and stop making content for you to enjoy.
gifmakers spend HOURS sometimes days, weeks, etc on gifsets. from creating ideas to downloading/finding videos to colouring the gif to sharpening, etc, it takes so much time and gifmakers do this completely on their own free time, for free. just so y'all can enjoy content of your favs. not to mention the time gifmakers often spend doing requests from other people just to be nice and make someone else happy!
so with this i remind everyone to stop? reposting gifs?? i don’t care if you “saw it on google/twt/etc”, if you did not make it, It Is Not Yours To Post. that is a very simple concept im sure all of you know full well of. and when you come across gifs that are clearly reposted, don’t reblog them? like if you see a gifset with multiple different colourings, a gifset with someone else’s url in the watermark, a bunch of gifs in a textpost with no referral link, etc. it can be pretty easy to tell when something’s been reposted :/ also saying “credit to original giffer” means nothing. ASK permission before using someone’s gifs always.
it’s okay if you genuinely weren’t aware until now, but please, stop disrespecting contentmakers and thinking you can completely take advantage of them and their works.
