Regarding Art Theft
Forum Index > Core > Announcements > News Archive >
Thanks for posting this, Ravyne! I've already got my journal entry for art credit and proof of permissions. I don't think a lot of people realize just how serious of an issue this is, so hopefully this forum post will help people realize it.
Question: Should my journal entry be linked somewhere specific? Is there a place we can post a link to our proof / sourcing so that you or anyone else keeping an eye out for art theft can easily find it?
{edit] Figured it out. Why did I have to clean out my gallery????? *facepalms* This also reminds me that I have to make a commissions post here.... Thank you for being an effective admin. I'd hire you.

Avatar is official art from Avatar the Last Airbender comic series.
Does this apply to templates in general, I sometimes use other peoples art for templates, I always ask permission, but I get rid of my inbox messages on deviant art so there isn't always proof anymore. I always credit them on the template and link back to them. So in this case what would I have to do, it would be a royal pain to have to add those links and that screenshot to the template each time I use it, or if I make a template for a contest etc.
@MrsLoki; So that I don't have to do it every time the template is used I have a journal entry for crediting art I've used and posting proof of permission to use. That way it's still easily accessible and if there's any issues I can link to the journal entry. That's also why I asked Ravyne if there's a specific place to put a link to things like that.
only issue is kittens, I don't have the proof for most of the artists I have permission to use anymore because I asked most of them over a year ago for this permission.

Well I do have one more question. What if the art includes my username? Such as my signature and avatar? Both have Voxumo included in them and my signature even links to my deviantart page where I have copies of the commissioned pieces including links to the original postings by the artist.
