I've been getting a few comments to the effect of "I love the stuff you make", and while I'm flattered that people like the content, pretty much everything in my Gallery is titled with "by AnotherUserNameHere" for a reason. I'm often a commissioner or receiving art as a random gift. I haven't produced anything of my own for this FA account to date. I just want to be clear about this because I respect the artists that have portrayed me and believe they deserve credit, comments, favorites, watches, and the like. I do reuploads with links back to the original work after the original work gets buried deep enough in FA's archives. This both gives those artists another chance to be recognized for their work and allows me to keep a copy of all work done for/with me.

Again, I'm really happy that people like my character's designs or the situations in which he's portrayed, and I'm all for getting watches, faves, and comments because I intend to keep getting portrayed in those situations! I just want to make this journal and put it right above my shouts to show respect for the artists who have depicted my character. I know that if I drew for somebody else and saw that person being called a great creator when it was reuploaded, I'd be a little irked if that person wasn't clarifying the situation. I don't think this journal is going to stop the misconceptions, as people aren't very likely to read this if they didn't see the "by AnotherUserNameHere" in the art titles, but at least it shows that I'm not attracting the wrong attention deliberately.

To be clear, I don't intend to shame anybody for not reading titles carefully with this journal. I very much appreciate those of you who have given me compliments for the situations in which my characters have been!
