#ask-glittershell

returns this blog but revamps it where everyone are zombies

This year I will be vending at Bronycon at table 38 with @ask-glittershell as my lovely assistant. I will be seeling Posters, prints, and buttons, and Aeroshell dakimakuras/bodypillows!

Also if you wish to reserve a pillow/daki check out this post I made earlier about making reservations.

is this a jojo refrence

As an artist I honestly disagree with this notion entirely. My content saw massive spikes in followers and viewers after being reposted and shared to other websites; some of the audience of those sites come to find the rest of my content. If I had demanded confirmation for every single post I would have alienated a number of those people, and limited my contents spread.

Well I’m glad you were one of the few artists who benefited from people reposting your art. Unfortunately, not all artists have the same luck, and a few good experiences doesn’t make up for the huge problem reposting art is. There are still a lot of reposters that gain thousands of followers for doing nothing, while the artist gets no recognition. Most reposters don’t care to put a source. Most reposters fight the artist when they are asked to delete the reposts. Most reposters are shitty.

About artists and the way they feel about reposting: Some don’t care, but others do. I do care. The first time I saw all of my art reposted on derpibooru, it really hurted me and made me feel like I had no control over my own content; nobody ever cared to let me know it was being reposted, everybody just assumed I would know about derpibooru and be okay with the way that site works. Now my reposting conditions on Derpibooru are “With permission only”, and suddenly nobody ever cares about my art enough to ask for permission or just let me know when they are gonna repost something. Most reposters are lazy, and I don’t trust them. That’s it.

All I ask for is permission, simple as that, if they can’t do that, they can’t repost my stuff. It’s my content and I deserve to know where it ends up. I refuse to feed reposting culture.

Applejack: So Twi built a flamethrower wieldin’ robot pony because Sunset Shimmer said she couldn’t.

Sunset: I did NOT tell her to add a flamethrower to it! I just didn't believe that she would actually build a fully autonomous robot pony. I didn’t even know that was possible.

Applejack: So why’d she add a flamethrower to it?

Me too @ask-glittershell. Meee toooooo.
