RE: Just a Steemian Concerned About Art Theft- A Short Rant
hahaha @art-mess you must admit how inventive that thief you posted is, he fliped image so he made something by himself...
Just kidding off course..Stealing art unfortunately is becoming common this days not only on Steemit..
But I agree, those things should be flaged and maybe with more posts like yours some people will be aware of it.
I seen lots of that (and commented on this tread as well) - on Facebook I do image searches from time to time and find that some are even cropping off the signature and/or copyright notice, or else clone over it with a healing or cloning brush.
hahaa Yeah @jungwatercolor they really went all out on the edit. It must have taxed the resources of the computer from the massive render.
I fear if we don't stay on top of it there will be no room for the people actually creating content for all the piles of stolen art. I really like the ideas that normok threw out there about a negative curation list and the curation trail.
It's good idea with negative trail, but it should be handled with care, since like everywhere people may use it the wrong way ..Like putting there someone they don;t like for personal reasons etc..People are just people
Haven't seen anyone using my art that way still, and if I do, he will be put on wall of shame for sure :)))
I don't have problem with protecting original artist loud @art-mess.
Sometimes my boyfriend jokes me that I am revolutionist and fighter against injustice in every topic in life :)
Yes. We definitely don't want to start something that doesn't have a solid system in play to verify users work. Time to dropkick those thieves.
@art-mess flipping and cropping is no massive editing - it's done with a couple of mouse clicks in a few seconds.
That is just my sarcasm leaking brother. :)
