defend-jelsa: “And if people don’t want their art reposted maybe they shouldn’t put it on the Internet????”

First of all, how dare you. how dare you. Please drop your entitled, self-centered, bigoted attitude to realize for a moment that the artists from whom you steal from— (yea. I said steal. Reposting without permission is stealing and robbing the credit from the original artist and oh look at your blog. hella reposted work. with stuff like this pulled. yup sourcing. nailed it.) —use the Internet to share their works and get their skills acknowledged usually at no cost. Also, let’s face it. What blog would you be even running if ALL people who didn’t want their art reposted STOPPED making their art public?????? Also, what do I expect other people to do about reposted art?? ASK THE ARTIST FOR PERMISSION TO REPOST IT SOMEWHERE ELSE???? (the artists are usually crazy nice. if they say no then respect their answer and don’t post it). f* source it. bless and cheer on the artist. not steal??? Just because it’s the Internet doesn’t mean there isn’t an actual, living human being who worked hard, expected feedback, only to have some f* mooch off their work. It’s a free country and so is this guide on learning how to respect people that I found on the Internet. Number 4 would help you a lot so please read it.

Note: this reply isn’t prohibiting the enjoyment people find in Jelsa (ship to your heart’s content and allow people to ship other ships). Please please be respectful of people who don’t ship your ship and tag accordingly so they can avoid it. This reply is targeting anyone who reposts and/or didn’t know it was wrong before reading this.

artists who see their art reposted read this for help on what to do.

for anyone pleaseread this

I’m probably going to lose followers for this but I’ve seen this happening and have heard so much stuff about this going on that it needs to be known.
