Saw this on :icondarlingmionette:'s journal here:  Art Theft.

Went to this website: Korean Drama and typed in my username, and sure enough, they've gone and nicked some of the stuff from my profile.  Of course, they put who the artist is and what site it's on, which I suppose is crediting, but really, they should have told us they were doing this, yes?

Have a look and see if you find yourself on there.

The problem here, as :icondarlingmionette: says, is that there's really no clear linking or crediting to the original artist going on. Yes, it generally says by "such and such" on deviantart, but some of the longer usernames get cut-off halfway through.  Also, there are places where you can "leave a comment" for the artist...which leads to another problem, being WE--the original artists--won't be notified when someone comments on our artwork on that site--only the host will get notified.  And that's problematic.

If you'd like to complain, you can find the proper authorities to send a note to in :icondarlingmionette:'s journal.

EDIT--There are twelve days left to get me as many Poetry suggestions as you can! :squee:

---------------------

Hey, all!

I've been SO busy working this week, and won't have time to slow down until after Christmas is done and over with.  SO--I'm looking for suggestions for poetry to feature over at :icondailylitdeviations:!

Just a reminder, the guidelines as outlined by :icondailylitdeviations: are as follows:

:bulletblue: Only one suggestion per note please. If you'd like, send me a short (3-4 sentences) description on why you feel the piece deserves to be featured.

:bulletblue: Please write "DLD Suggestion" in the subject line of your note.

:bulletblue: Please do NOT suggest the same piece to multiple DLD admins.

:bulletblue: DLD does not accept fan fiction; don't send me suggestions of fan fiction.

And MY guidelines are:

:bulletblue:I am a Poetry Admin. Please only send me poetry suggestions!

I'M GOING to make this into a contest!  It will last for the next two weeks; the person who sends in the most pieces that I choose to use for features--READ AGAIN: I will only count the pieces I'd actually feature--will win a drawing akin to either this piece I did recently:

Butterflies by betwixtthepages

OR like my Disney faeries series:

Tigger Faerie by betwixtthepages
Piglet Faerie by betwixtthepages

SO--Send me your suggestions!! Please?

Hmm...I'm a literature and photography artist, but all I saw was some of my favorites - as in, all the images that came up were images that I have favorited on this site...
