People genuinely need to stop reposting art from other artists without crediting them
ESPECIALLY on Pinterest. And then when you ask for the artist they don’t reply or they just delete the post altogether… like if u don’t know who the artist is don’t repost the fanart??? Also, then when I try to look for the artist myself they never show up. So the person who reposted, there was probably a 60% chance that they knew who the artist was. Yet they decided not to credit because they just couldn’t be bothered- and I now can’t find the artist because they’ve changed their username, deleted their account, OR they just haven’t credited them.
And the craziest part is I literally watch TWF edits on YouTube, and the creators never credit the artists. Not in the description, title, comments, nowhere. Like I saw this Sophie edit and this person used a bunch of different types of fanart. I could not find credit for the original artists anywhere. I’ve only seen three edits where artists get credited. And that sadly was all from the same person. All the other edits I watched the artists were not credited. I don’t get why people even repost art onto other websites/apps in the first place, it’s not yours to post. Don’t post it. I think Pinterest is one of the worst apps for that
Like I’m genuinely curious if you don’t know who the artist is how did you end up reposting it in the first place? Where did you find it from?
Anyways people need to stop doing this. It’s so annoying and just wrong in general
