Hey real talk if youāve dubbed my artwork or plan to please fucking stop.Ā
I have never, not once, been credited for my art being used in aĀ ācomicā dub, which is especially rich considering I donāt post comics at all, they always crop my watermark out, and Iāve specified that I do not like having my art placed on any other platforms for any reason at all.Ā
It makes me uncomfortable to have my art reposted and itās also theft, so literally donāt dub any of my art. Itās super easy to ASK or at least credit but since apparently thatās too much work youāre just not allowed anymore.Ā
On that note, Iāve only ever had this problem with the Sanders Sides fandom, so yikes. Iām starting to see why artists like Pastel-Peach stopped drawing for this fandom entirely and I think they were right to do so.Ā
Yeah, those of you who miss my Sides art have other fander content creators to thank for me losing motivation in it. The art theft in this fandom is so unbearably rampant it makes me sick. Iāve high key lost all motivation to write and draw anything Thomas related because I know thereās a good chance someone will cut the watermark and paste it somewhere without credit.Ā
And yes, this is one of the reasons I donāt post art here anymore. I understand other fandoms have this issue but Iāve never been in a fandom where itās happened to someone like ME, who is neither popular nor especially talented. If even MY art gets jacked, itās fucking bad.Ā
Mmmm this isnt cool my dudes!
Please, please dont do steal art. It hurts fandom creators so badly. If you ever want to repost art, ALWAYS ask the artist first, check their FAQs and whatnot, and respect their answer.
If its NO, then itās NO. If you do not get an answer, itās just as good as a NO. Only if you get a specific YES and abide by their terms should you ever repost their art.
Iām sorry you had to deal with this, Paper. I hope the current issue gets resolved soon.
Yeah, thatās really shitty guys please donāt do that :(( Iām sorry paper for that happening :,(((
And spread the word!
Also, if any of you see uncredited art reposts from me, please donāt shy away from contacting me!
Art theft will earn you two seconds of fame and a lot of anger and hate, just donāt do it
