I don't know why I get so pissed off at people uploading pics that they didn't do o.o I know it's not against TOS so long as credit is given, but for some dumb reason when I see an amazing drawing and then read that it's done by some other artist, it just rubs me the wrong way for some reason >_< Does anybody else experience this, or am I the only one? o.0
The two main reasons that it bugs me is 1: I hate doing searches and seeing the same image posted twice, or worse, three times or more (cause everyone in the pic has to upload it), and 2: It's easy enough to /fav commissions/gifts/etc. Uploading other people's work turns the site as a whole into more of a journal site (cause ya'll know how much I love journals) rather than an artists site.
I think that FA should add a new tab onto the artists page.
User Page - Commission Information - Journals - Gallery - Scraps - [b]Commissions/Gifts[b] etc
So people can choose to mark submissions as such when they upload them and they will not appear in searches. Or, instead of actually uploading them again, they could go and "mark" the artists work as "Their Commission" similar to a new "Favorites" tab, that way you don't have to see the same image appear on the main page and such.

I only say this because a character of yours is YOUR creation as the art is their's.
Not to mention, it's uploaded at a separate time, so other people may be glancing at the front page when it gets uploaded and may see it when they otherwise would have missed it.
Bonus points in that it brings said artist new watchers in the form of people already watching you. :)
