I thought I would clarify a point about my last journal entry so that no one gets confused. When I say that it's fine to be inspired by me, but respect me and my work, what I mean is -please- do not take my art and claim it as your own, and please give me credit. Do so with ANY artist you are inspired by. If you should copy my artwork to learn from, and then turn around and slap your name on it and sell it, that is disrespecfull. If you take my art and put it on something and sell that (without coming to an agreement with me), that is disrespectfull as well.

On the other hand, if you take my art and do something like this with is: [link] That is awesome! Notice that my name appears, very small, in the lower left hand corner? That's all that I ask. However, if your art or creation is merely inspired by me and you did not copy my art at all, or only copied a small part of it (such as a hand, or something), no credit to me is needed. Does that make sense?

Anyway, so yeah. Please, be creative, but please respect us artists as well

EDIT: Oh, and apparantly I now have my own forum and shoutbox on here? [link]
