Such a beautiful piece of fanart..!

I must reblog! I- Wait...

It's unsourced

Again

[pettypunani]

Mangetsuh stop being such an asshole towards my friends,

you used a drawing of Sasoreo without sourcing it,

please be mature jfc and admit your fault =__=; stop being so immature for christ fucking sake.

There for. Sasoreo had requested on her pixiv for people not to copy her stuff without her permission. You violated her terms of usage.

You're the one at fault.

Somebody in the snk tag is posting so many unsourced art im really fuckin irritated with that

[ace-and-ranty]

You know what sucks?

Seeing this BEAUTIFUL, heart-wrenching amazing piece of art on the Thorki tag, immediately getting super excited to show it to your favorite Thorki author, and then realizing it has No Source.

And seeing as your best friend is an artist and you know what an horrible thing not crediting is, you have long ago promised yourself you wouldn't reblogg non-sourced stuff.

Why would someone post a picture so beautiful, go to the job of actually finding a matching song's lyric, tagg it "art: not mine", and don't credit it?

People not sourcing fanart...Here's how: The Easiest way!

It seems like Puella Magi Madoka Magica is A HUGE victim of this...so here's a HOW TO FUCKING SOUCE YOUR SHIT GUIDE...with no read more so people read it.  This is for people who have Chrome or Firefox. Using a picture I found improperly sourced for this guide!  For people who use Internet Explorer or Safari, I'd say either TRY another browser if you cant copy and paste the URL of the picture into Saucenao or google image search .

Install this:

Image Search Options for Chrome

Image Search Options for Firefox

Once that's installed, find a picture you like , right click, and you'll see this, then you pick Saucenao (very likely the only one you'll need to use with this sort of stuff, it'll find you Pixiv stuff, if not try google image search as the option)

You'll get this. Click the thing I put in the red circle, there's more options below if that doesn't work (sometimes a person deletes their art and it still comes up first but it's in the thing below it , and you can refresh that and make sure). This will link you to the pixiv page which you use: 

If it is not there, try the google search option. Pixiv, Tegaki, and Drawr are all good sources. DO NOT SOURCE ZERO CHAN OR WEHEARTIT! THESE ARE NOT THE SOURCES YOU USE BECAUSE THE ARTIST LIKELY DID NOT UPLOAD IT THERE. I'd also like to add that Deviant art may be ok, but it totally depends on if you can make sure it's not anywhere else.

Anyway, how to source on tumblr? 

Take the URL:

Then Put it here: 

THEN POST, and you're done! 

SUPER EASY! Sourcing this way takes so little effort!
