Magazine ad for the VHS/Beta release of Ralph Bakshi's WIZARDS (1977).

[geeky92]

There’s a little bit of false advertising in that first sentence up top. Ralph Bakshi had NO involvement in Heavy Metal at all.

[animationproclamations]

By golly, you're right!

Another Sam & Max cosplay photoshoot because I finished upgrading my Sam cosplay

I made a new, smaller head for Sam and made him a new suit and nicer shaped hat from scratch. I have fixed Max up as well after these photos cause I noticed some more flaws and stuff and I tried picking the photos where it's less visible cause I didn't wanna bother anyone with retaking more photos...

Have you ever wanted to beat the hell out of me? Just absolutely wreck my face and body into an unrecognizable pulp? Make a bloody paste of my mortal coil? Now you can!

It's another year and another Artfight, which means it's the only time of the year that I'm legally vulnerable to death! I'm on team Seafoam this year, and for once I'm not doing all of my prep work the day before! You can follow me at ~typefourty on Artfight! Come say hi! 🐚

cant tell you how bad it feels to constantly tell other artists to come to tumblr, because its the last good website that isn't fucked up by spoonfeeding algorithms and AI bullshit and isn't based around meaningless likes

just to watch that all fall apart in the last year or so and especially the last two weeks

there's nowhere good to go anymore for artists.

op's tags

[cozylittleartblog]

ok you know what yeah, yeah my tags Should be part of the post. they're important.

Ppl: “Glaze and nightshade all your art!!”

Also ppl: * does not mention that you need to have a fucking NVIDIA GPU and running nightshade on one image takes at best 20 minutes*

Like the online version of glaze/nightshade requires an account. And last time i checked they arent accepting new accounts because of the high pressure.

Like i make my art on my ipad. My MacBook is from 2014. If i tried to download and run nightshade on my decade old macbook and go throufg 10+ years of artworks i might as well just set it on fire.

[foervraengd]

Like majority of digital artists doesnt actually have a high end gaming pc setup. It is unrealistic to expect everyone to be able to run such a heavy program just so we can feel somewhat ok with sharing our drawings online. It’s ridiculous. I CAN NOT nightshade or glaze my artworks even if i wanted to.

its official: tumblr is selling our data to Midjourney

Tumblr and Wordpress to Sell Users’ Data to Train AI Tools

Internal documents obtained by 404 Media show that Tumblr staff compiled users' data as part of a deal with Midjourney and OpenAI.

we'd been hearing rumors about this for a bit but now its open and out there. some details from this article

it goes without saying, but if @staff goes through with this its going to be an utter shitshow and im all but certain the website will not survive it.

everyone go enable this immediately. it can be a bit hard to find because “visibility” is under blog settings instead of general settings or privacy. you have to do this individually for each separate side-blog

if you can’t find it on the app then the update probably hasn’t rolled out to you, and you’ll have to go through the web browser. what a truly wild way/time to implement this

[kukurubean]

took these screenshots for people like me who would rather just know how to opt out than read several paragraphs on corporate greed

[dreamyfreakout]

tumblr has an AI toggle you should turn on to prevent your work being shared with training models/etc! it's under settings & visibility.

[tshortik]

Turn on "prevent third-party sharing" in your settings!

Go into your settings, click on your blog name, scroll down and enable "prevent third-party sharing". I'm gonna be honest, I question how much/if this even prevents any AI bullshit, but do it just in case anyway.

Edit: On Mobile it's the Settings Gear, Visibility, Prevent third-party sharing.

You have to turn that on for all your blogs separately.
