Changing My Pfp + Confession about Scribs
3 years ago
Yo, what’s up fellow airheads?
I know last time I asked about changing it pretty much everybody said no, but this time I feel it’s serious as I’m no longer comfortable with having it as I’ll explain below.
So, my Scrib pfp doing the Dingus Dance for Pringus McDingus’es Dingus Day has been my pfp on a lot of my social media accounts for years now. It’s been very popular from its dorky stupidity and I’m glad you all like it. But since it’s at least 2 years old I’ve gotten bored of it and want to move on, but the more important thing, and also the reason I stopped doing Scribs… It’s traced
When I saw the whole tweet about entering for PMcD’s video I also assumed he wanted it in his dorky style, and since I wasn’t that skilled at the time I blindly went ahead and traced the base. I was the only person in the video to mimic his style and I feel uncomfortable and a tad guilty about that. Then I started making a whole artstyle around that traced drawing while pushing away the thought that I’m copying his style for my own use without his permission. Whether he’s okay with that or not is unknown to me, heck he likely hasn’t even seen the others, but I still feel very uncomfortable with the face of my account being an artwork I traced off of somebody else.
I have a few candidates as my new pfp and I’ll be switching around between them for a while before I settle on which one’s best. I hope you understand this change as once again, I know a lot of you vouched for it to stay, but I simply can’t let it be my icon anymore. I will still be keeping the other Scribs up so don’t worry about those vanishing too.
