Report a Policy Violation
For those who have many watchers, and for those who don’t have many, it is hard to know how one retains that interest as well as receive more. This article explores the basics of watchers and how we react to certain situations. Although it does not affect some deviants, and the tips are generally related to common sense, we hope the article is a worthwhile read and that the majority learn something from reading this.

I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon.... It looked like fun! It bothers me when people get all pissy someone "copied" their idea. It's understandable that people get annoyed for not being original after all, but...more than one person can have the same idea without having copied! OMG WHUT. I know, but it's true. It DOES happen! --- "Copyright is a legal right to control the copying, reproduction, distribution, derivative use, and public display of your photographs [or other work] and to sue for unauthorized use of your work. This right begins automatically from the moment you record your image in tangible form, such as on film or in a digital medium and does not require registration with the copyright office or placement of a copyright notice on the image. "To be copyrighted, ideas must be original. If you make an exact copy a photograph [or other work], or substantially similar copy of another person's copyrighted work, the copy cannot be copyrighted, since it is not original. "Ideas, themes, and concepts are not copyrightable. Only an original expression in a tangible form, such as a photograph, can be copyrighted. You cannot copyright an idea for a photograph [or other work]; only the actual, original photograph [or other work]" ("Photography & Digital Imaging" Revised Fifth Edition 518, Marvin J. Rosen & David L. Devries). --- Not sure if I have to say it, but you may use this in your dA journals or shout-out boxes or whatever if you want. |

Sometimes I take different sides though...
-_-
Like, I had an idea of what I should draw for my t-shirt, and the advanced class was ahead of us, so we would be able to see the results. One girl kinda drew exactly what I had in mind! It was kinda annoying because whatever I put on paper, it seemed too much like hers (besides the fact that hers was better). I didn't want to make it seem like I was copying her...
it was quite fustrating.
and also, ed, you know that robot that you like to draw? someone did almost something VERY similiar to it on their t-shirt in my class. Only difference was, this robot is taller. I felt kinda sad because I felt like she ripped off of you -quite possible, but I doubt it.
But hey, sometimes it's good when ideas bounce off of each other.
Also, my robot is not an idea--it's an original design.... So if they did indeed copy it, that is infringing upon my copyrights. If it was mine, though, I just hope that person didn't say it was his/hers.

Of course I can be in the carpool lane there's a body in the trunk
If you belive that same sex marriges should be legal copy and paste this in your signature
I believe in Jesus Christ my Saviour. If you do too, copy and paste this into your signatu
To come out and say "I created this with no help from the rest of humanity, and now it's all mine and nobody else can duplicate or use it for the good of the world" is simply stealing.
