seems to true. i was looking over new art people had posted, this one person freaking takes a bunch of art and just posts it and says "I really like the way I DREW Gaara here..." i was like "Dude... wtf?!"

you said it, and you said it right!

i just got pissed off for seeing the same damn picture put up by so many people... and i finally found the original artist who even had the WIP and i was like O.O OMG ART STEALERS!

First of all this isn't news.

Second not everyone that posts art that isn't theirs to get attention, some are genuinely ignorant of the rules. I find myself unable to be angry at someone who posts something that isn't theirs because they think this is photobucket, at least if they take it down once they're told that they're only allowed to post their own art.

I know they should have read the rules when signing up but most people didn't read them in full anyway. From what I've seen most people just learn the rules as they get to know the site better.

By the way speaking of art theft have you looked at your own gallery recently? I have a heavy doubt that you took this picture or this one. I could be wrong and if I am I apologize. Of course the fact that you categorized it as a drawing when it's clearly not drawn makes it suspicious.

Also you're not allowed to have anime screen shots in your gallery, not even as previews so this breaks copyright policy. Do you know why? You're using an image you didn't make instead of just making a preview image yourself. Also next time save it as a .swf file, so it really counts as flash.

I can find more than one thing in your favourites that relies on copyrighted music, not made by the artist to make sense. And from what I can see at least one thing in your favourites is a screen shot.

Just because something's popular or famous that doesn't make it any less art theft. Think about that before you start ranting about something that you seem to commit and condone yourself.

I think they steal art because they have nothing better to do. That and they a low self esteem about their art and just want to ruin other's reputations.
