Shit

1 min read

I was deleting messages I sent from the sent section of my notes section & was stupid enough to delete messages that were in my inbox instead of my sent box


Notes I was saving for trades & a possible commission were in there along with bits of an RP I forgot to move. I guess when it comes up I'll have to ask people involved to send the refs again since most of it is just waiting for the other side to do something.(Finish their part of the trade & wait for confirmation/payment)

Art theft

2 min read

Update: The account of the art thief has been deactivated, with lucky they didn't make another account to do this again



By chance I decided to look at the Adoptable party thing DA was doing & by chance saw someone called achblurdicatio in the comments with a picture that looked very familiar


The image they used:

For Adoptables party #pt.2

Sure enough I realized it was an OC by onisuu


An image by Onisuu of the OC

OCs -- seine

Even worse this person used are that wasn't made by Onisuu(after some searching in their gallery) so that means this person stole from two people.


It didn't stop there I checked their gallery & it looks like a lot of the art doesn't belong to them in fact a lot of it is the image resized to be tiny, many if not most cropped some likely to hide the watermark/username in the corner.


Gacha Life & Roblox(though given everything these were likely stolen edits too) might be understandable(some screenshots from games too) but there's wallpaper & art that literally says it's from Sanrio.

Top it all off to make things even worse they didn't just steal art & repost it in shitty quality but if you go to their shop section you can clearly see they're ATTEMPTING to sell these stolen images. It's bad enough the images are stolen but to try SELLING it for actual money, I want to also point out possible official art from Sanrio is there too.



I have very little faith in DA doing something about this but I thought I should give a heads up. This is probably the laziest attempt at art theft I've seen cause while I've made tiny images before the size of these reposts make it all questionable. No one would even buy something that small unless it was specific sized pixel art.


Also I called them out & their only reaction was "Oh" & the only image taken down so far was one I pointed out still had a username in the corner(last I checked you can still see a preview of it on the Adoptable Party journal page in one of my comments calling them out but the image leads to a 404 cause they realized to take down at least THAT image instead of everything else)

I don't know if I missed it & noticed or if it really is today but my DA account is now 11 years old, since whoever is working on eclipse decided to remove the join date I've been checking in on the thing that says I've been here for 10 years on my profile until the year changed to 11.


Why? Well I'm weird & like to do things on certain dates. I've mentioned this at least once or so but I had plans to make an account on a site that's suppose to be similar to old DA on the date I joined DA.



So yeah I joined Inkblot(LINK), there's not much right now as I'm still trying to figure things out. I guess check in when you can & I'll maybe make another journal post after I get more setup. It seems so far(or at least for the time being) you need an account to look at most stuff but you can chose to have it be a normal one or a creator account.


My plans are to start mirroring my posts on here after figuring things out. I'll be starting with posting old art with a slightly edited version of the description for the pics. At best it just says when it was first posted & some might get edited for some mistakes/add an explanation for something.


I won't be posting all of my stuff, some posts should be left in the past so the only way to see it is to go looking on here.(With luck they don't remove the gallery search bar) Given that I'm pretty tied up with stuff it'll probably be a while before I finally work on this but at least I've gotten partly to it. ...I should work on my carrd & commission examples at some point.

Well I didn't run into this person but I did come across the warning for this. Just helping boost the heads up.
