What everyone is talking about is you taking something and not reblogging properly with credit. That is the issue at hand. If youmake the screencaps then you can do whatever you like with them, but it someone else made them just link to wherever the hell you got them in the comment box or the click-thru. It’s really not that hard! I think the issue is also the fact that you’re not respecting your fellow fans or their contributions to fandom. Saying screencaps are “not real art” is just a sign of that lack of respect. Maybe it’s not fanart, but someone put time and effort into it, which makes the fruits of that effort theirs to an extent.
Just add some damn credit ok? It’s much classier.
It’s the godamn internet, people are always going to steal. And like I said before my intention was not to steal. If I knew it would cause so much uproar then I probably wouldn’t have posted it at all.
If someone puts something on the internet, it’s going to get stolen. All you fucking GIMME CREDIT fools are arguing for a fight you WILL NEVER WIN. If you don’t want you precious “art” stolen, DON’T put it online. Also the fact that you all fucking sit there and complain about how no one ever gives you credit DOES NOT make people want to give you credit.
THIS. I’d be fine to give someone credit as long as they asked nicely.
Outpour (or whatever his/her tumblr username is) could have just messaged me somewhere and asked me to put a link on the image but no you had to go to the trouble of screencapturing my post and call me a thief.
And I’m sure at some point all of us on tumblr has posted something without linking back to the credit source or creator of the image. So don’t you all get on your highhorses with me.
You only seem to have a problem with it if its only your goddamn work. You should feel lucky that there are people who actually reblog your images.
You want me to link back to your image, yet you don’t have to curtosy to ask me to. Like I said if you just asked me to put a link to the picture I would have.
Nobody cares..they are screen caps,not hand drawn pictures,when you start actually making real art or your actually the creator of “the big bang theory” then come talk to us.
Other than that,shut up..my seven year old sister can make screen caps…wait my DOG could probably make screen caps.
