Hello! I conducted an experiment recently about art theft and created a report on the results. I would like for this to be spread around so people become more aware of the art theft problem on this site. Here is the piece! [link]
has many deviations which she created by using other peoples' fanart, official game art such as screenshots and promotional images, and doesn't even care about it. Doesn't even credit /link back to the original images.
This is where all her editions go. The backgrounds she uses for her editions seem to be found through Google images or elsewhere.
An edited fanart:
- Original: [link] - Bad traced over and added random background: [link]
I tried to make her understand that Deviantart is a place for submitting stuff created by us only, and she did not want to listen, simply "doesn't give a fuck" and thinks she is doing it right.
