Credit for an Artist: Photography and your responsibility
12 years ago
I am an artist. My medium is photography.
The furry fandom and other costume-loving fandoms have an inner ecology that is a balance. Suiters suit and the photographers record it with their cameras. Some take time to edit their work. Some don't. Regardless, without someone with a camera, the suiters never get to see what they look like.
When you share my art, my photos without giving me credit, it makes me feel used and disappointed. I would never post your art without giving credit where it's due. Please remember to give your photographers the credit they deserve. Without them, there would be no photos of you! (except for your selfies)
ALWAYS CREDIT YOUR PHOTOGRAPHERS AND ALL OF THE ARTISTS YOU RE-POST!
We want the same love and attention you want in your fursuits.
Thanks everyone! <3
Much love,

I plan to create a watermark and I'm going to start marking all my work. In the meantime, I still expect the same respect given to other artists to be given to me.
