I took a good hard look at my own blog and while I'm good about crediting artists, I noticed I'm not as consistent about crediting photographers, and they deserve recognition for their work just as much, when possible. Reverse image search on Google is really helpful to find the artist.Thomas Denmarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06135075012362548876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-737809845612070971.post-25516029599921186132017-11-13T03:32:36.704-08:002017-11-13T03:32:36.704-08:00Cheers.

I don't trawl through artist sites plundering them for profit i mostly grab images from FB, Tumblr and G+ sharing and aggregation groups and pages. Im going to make effort to stop using on this blog as I approach being comercial. I would prefer to come to a compromise or even a collaboration over this stuff but i get why ppl get angry because everything i put online is mechanically ripped off and sold automatically by at least a dozen sites. Id still happily do a feature or something with the artist or use with permission or link as I offer before but lack of sleep and worry has me a bit nutty now and I dont even want to write. <br />Konsumterrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18170560484656800416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-737809845612070971.post-58620869032726296212017-11-12T20:49:30.891-08:002017-11-12T20:49:30.891-08:00tumblr too

Partly why I didnt pull my blog was some ppl would kind of over react on some way I dont like.<br /><br />You can probably see the old pic in one of dozens of feed sites that steal all my content as their own.<br /><br />Ive been posting online stuff since 1989 and and this is second time I have had a complaint - other was for a great cassowary pic on FB that someone was initially aghast i had stolen from their front lawn (FB feed) - we talked they calmed down I pulled it. Ive walked into galleries and found images of my work for sale. I once found a whole gallery where 10 out of 12 huge digital prints were my work. I made friends with them and they became a patron. Gave me one of works, did a collab, had me as a guest speaker, got me exhibitions hot dinners and art equipment. Two other ppl who had some of their work in images just bitched and got nowhere. So there are ways of confronting this stuff that benefits everyone. For a hobby that preaches no to bootlegs on ebay and pdf torrents most of the same people post art all the time without credit - most FB groups on gaming preach defence of IP and share ll the time. Anyway I don't want to start a flame war or have my fans go mental. For the record I denounce any fan related shankings, hackings or other shenanigans <br /><br />Expect lots of pics of me in silly hats from now onKonsumterrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18170560484656800416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-737809845612070971.post-13620419566277111122017-11-12T20:12:54.354-08:002017-11-12T20:12:54.354-08:00Don't let that Party-Popper bring you down!

I never received any credit the first 20 years of commercial work i did. I have mental problems remembering any names or numbers and wish i had the kind of memory for this stuff. Most images I source from FB or Tumblr and i don't know who did them. None of this excuses me. Some have web links in them or artists name. I certainly wouldn't crop out a artists name. If i start making any money from this I will probably delete this blog. It might happen sooner If I thought I had upset lots of people. <br /><br />I'm probably more offended by RPGs and crackpots using historic or cultural images without citation in the correct manner for racist reasons like alien astronaut theory or the 80% of aboriginal art in australia that is fake. (You linked to someone discussing alien astronauts which i had commented on using images owned in collections). I dont expect ppl to share my concerns.<br />You dont need to convince me how hard artists work - ive worked as one since 1986 and seen most of my friends go insane from poverty.

Im happy to remove it If you think it is the right thing to do. Or Id be happy to provide links to artist or even feature them. To date I have regarded this as just another social media platform like FB where credit for shared images is mostly never given.

I've gotten commissions from unexpected places when an art director saw my art somewhere I was unaware of.<br /><br />I read your blog regularly and enjoy random tables, so much that I've considered approaching you about a collaboration. It just happened that this image caught my attention because it is a friend who I worked with for a few years at a studio.

This doesnt forgive anything. If any atist complains personally Im happy to remove the artist or credit them as they prefer or even do a feature on them. Ive been posting art online for 20 years and one person has complained in this time period. Im happy to respect a artist who contacts me. If I was doing anything for profit I would not do this. People take my blog articles and sell compilations and charge for it. I can't even see them without using payment. I personally recommend putting name in work obviously but Im aware ppl crop them out.Konsumterrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18170560484656800416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-737809845612070971.post-63974084002663371672017-11-11T11:21:56.555-08:002017-11-11T11:21:56.555-08:00When posting an artist's work (which I'm p...When posting an artist's work (which I'm pretty sure you didn't pay publication rights for) at least credit the artist.<br />Art © Mitch Mohrhauser https://www.artstation.com/mitchmohrhauserThomas Denmarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06135075012362548876noreply@blogger.com
