Okay, now, someone i know who i can not say, has been for a long time tracing pictures they use for
commissions. they trace the pose, and change around that. this person isn't banned for it, but this is
very illegal. and some have caught them at it already, but nothing was really done. I'm saying this
because they owe so much in art, and i doubt they can pay it back. not to mention, it is horrible to pay
for traced art. now, it's there digital art i refer to, and i cannot say who it is, against the rules of the site.
Now if you note me, i may tell you, but you cannot go harassing pages, subs, and journals. No going
ape shit a stuff. if you talk to them about refunds or anything, be polite, trust me.
that is all. if you want to spread this journal, go ahead, i wont stop ayone

You know, it always irked me when magazines would post artwork on fan-art pages...and the pictures would be so blatantly copied off of an original work (yes, "Animerica" and "Shounen Jump", you know who you are magazines)...yet, people like me and my friends, who would submit original art, would NEVER get published on the fan-art pages. For me, personally...I think they actually held my AGE against me...I'd rarely see printed art from anyone over the age of 20--as if 20-year-olds can't be anime/manga fans!
It disheartens me to hear that people can still get away with copying an image and get money/fame/recognition for something like that.
