sabertoothwalrus: adriofthedead: kiokushitaka: chalve: kiokushitaka: since there’s apparently some sort of confusion on the matter (read: people are idiots) also, ppl need to get reminded about linking the artist in description since many doesn’t do it. i’d like to add: posting art with a source, but still not asking for permission is still shitty. reblogging art posts/reposts and removing the caption for some stupid aesthetic reason is also shitty (seriously they make themes that hide captions if your stupid aesthetic is so fucking important; don’t remove captions). I saw a post going around recently from a Pixiv artist (from Japan iirc) expressing frustration about the number of messages they and other artists (who had expressed the same concern) were getting, many of which were literally the exact same message sent over and over and over again–because they were from a tumblr copy-paste template. Reaching out to non-English speaking artists for permission to repost their art is cool and everything, but for god’s sake, don’t spam the shit out of them. Imagine waking up one day to a whole bunch of messages in your inbox and each and every one of them were worded exactly the same. You’d probably be frustrated and a little creeped out, too. So be wise before you just start casually shooting off “templates” to Pixiv artists. I’m just going to bold REVERSE GOOGLE IMAGE SEARCH IS FREE, PAL -- source link
