Talk:Art Theft (copying)/@comment-7895800-20130802043257

Here's a article I found, I just wanted to share it with you guise. ^w^ It's about stealing other peoples pictures and what will happen. I think this article is very interesting. :3 And it has to do with art and photographs. Even though we are young, we can still get in trouble. So as us young artists, we should watch out on what we draw nowadays. :I Because think, if you were the original artist, how would you feel if some little kid took YOUR art? Pretty bad right? Just because it doesn't have a copyright signature, doesn't mean it's not copyright. People put art on websites, so at the beginning of their website they already put a copyright sig on all their artwork without actually putting it on. "But it's DC, they won't even go that far." Yes the would! :O Face it, if you steal it, you steal it, if you have a chance to get a fine, you have a chance to get a fine!

I'll even admit so I won't look like such a bad guy (because most of you think I'm always the bad guy) I used to get Super Mario pictures on a Mario Wikipedia, and redraw the whole picture all over again! And I really thought that nothing was wrong with it! I'm thinking about deleting them because it's plagiarism and it's WRONG. We shouldn't think copying a simple picture is OK, when we don't know the benefits. Disney Create owns all our pictures right? Yes. So if the original artist caught us doing plagiarism, Disney Create would have to take responsibility of your mess. That's not fair that DC would have to do that. :(

Anyways, here's the article I promised in the beginning. http://m.blogher.com/bloggers-beware-you-can-get-sued-using-photos-your-blog-my-story I know some of you may be stubborn and still stick with your ways, but you know this is true. :/ Oh and the article is two pages long, so scroll to the bottom of the article to continue. Enjoy. :) -MJ
