[REPORT] Re-edited GIFs Reposter @temptaestions
Account @temptaestions on Tumblr has been stealing gifs from multiple content creators on Tumblr and Twitter. She has been cropping, recoloring then reposting and claiming these gifs as her own since January 2019. When contacted by multiple content creators, she maintained that the cropped and recolored gifs are hers. Further, when asked, she said that she had the video on her phone and gif-ed there. [1]
On September 8, Eshika made a post with the different psd’s that she used on editing the gifs, and made no comment on the actual process of making the gif. Admin Kelly had contacted them by private message on September 9 to remove all reposted, cropped, and re-colored gifs and/or uncredited content. They have not replied to any of her messages until now.
