I've been getting really sick of seeing people credit artists incorrectly or not at all. Sometimes it's legitimate ignorance, sometimes laziness, and sometimes just plain ol greed.

NO. This is not ok.

I'm posting this so I can point people to it in forums and on any site where pony art is found that it shouldn't be. I consider it a first warning before reporting them and asking for their account to be banned.

I'm sick of people stealing art and acting like it's ok.

And because I forgot to say so the last few posts, this art was inspired by the very awesome Lauren Faust and Hasbro MLP FiM team!

IMPORTANT! Here's Rainekitty's comment on this post. What she says here is exactly what I'm talking about: [link]

EDIT: I also forgot to mention that I was really terrified of drawing this by hand instead of using vectors. I know some time I have to move away from the crutch (it's a crutch for me) of vectors and do some real drawings... I hope it turned out alright because I'm proud of it :D

Also, for those that are interested, I do have a lot of the art in this somewhere in my favorites... in case you don't want to hand-type the links anyway :D

Be sure to put watermarks on your art to help. Otherwise, I would concentrate more on the English sites myself, though the rampant spread without consent or attribution is pretty annoying.

I can't tell you the number of time's I've seen this (find the source embed in the url or something) and the post says source unknown - really? it's right there. I have the fun indexing/photographic memory the number of times I'm like where have i seen this before. But saidly I think only the people that want to do the right thing will follow this.

Glad I could help! I made a non-pony one if you want to share this with others without it being all pony :)

Ironically, I just finished reading that one! I'll be sure to refer any friends to this if they need help!
