"credit to the original! ^^" and it takes about 2 seconds to find the original artist

Please CREDIT ARTISTS FOR THEIR WORK I AM LOSING MY MIND??? "credit to the original" IS NOT REAL CREDIT !!!!! YOU ARE NOT CREDITING ANYONE !!!!! so many of the communities i've been in over the years are ssSSOOO BAAAD at crediting people INCLUDING the DW community and it annoys me to no end. either do your research or dont use the work at all . come on chat we can do better

Even when giving credit, you also have to make it different. Crediting is good, but your basically still stealing if you don't ADD something. Edit it, dub over it, reanimate it, whatever. Just make it different, creators.

So true and I saw a creator getting scared of getting the og creators getting mad at them for reposting their vids. And the worst part is their was no credits at all! They just get worried about and not realize what their doing is wrong.

RIGHT thank you for saying this im ashamed to admit i used to do this in my baby years of the internet [like...six or seven years ago] but as someone who wants to be a full time artist in the future, i pretty much immediately learned to NOT do this, why its important not to do this, and that it doesn't take less than five minutes to find the original artist. it's not hard, people! do better!

Oh my glad im so glad im not the only one who gets peeved by that- I get in some situations with certain trends or pieces it can be hard to find the originals but at least TRY to find it before using without proper credit ESPECIALLY if its an edit or a repost thats using the artwork directly pLEASE

There's a person that pmo so badly, like they literally used SOMEONE ELSE'S SHELLY DRAWING AND ONLY DREW DIFFERENT EXPRESSIONS FOR AN ANIMATION MEME AND THEN SAID "I gave credits?" LIKE HOW ARE YOU GONNA LEARN TO DRAW IF YOU USE SOMEONE ELSE'S WORK, AND THE PERSON DIDN'T EVEN LET YOU USE THEIR ART??

@BlobsPassage

"credit to the original artist" aint helping NO ONE find the source!! Credit is giving a specific person recognision for their work. Acknologing their existance ISNT credit... Well unless someone is literally called "the original artist" 😭🙏

@P1nk13_Pi3

THISSS OMLL "found this art!! Thought it looked cool" sounds innocent enough until you want to see more of it and you don't see credit anywhere. Atp you have to do literal scavenger hunts to find the actual art bc it's been duetted, stolen, shoved into tiktok comps and ai generators too many times to count. Start giving credit. Start doing stuff on your own. Start asking permission.

The idiocy of “Credit to the original artist” is far beyond words. Thanks, reposter! Now I have to travel across the entire internet to watch a ten second clip!
