Not that hard to do, really.
You’re killing yourself by doing this. Reposting helps get you out there so people know you exist, by doing this you’re really just showing how stupid you are.
Reposting kills the artist. And what i mean by that is the artist themselves dont get the recognition they deserve. For example, the original post gets about 100+ notes, while some wise guy decides to repost INSTEAD OF REBLOG and said post gets 1000+ notes. That artisit doesnt see those notes, the wise ass does. Get me?
While i dont mind reposts as long as they ask permission and credit me, and not edit my work (which happens a lot to artists, which is one of the many reasons an artist would prefer and request people not repost) theres always going to be some asshat who just happens to find a cool art piece, repost it with no credit/source or the original comments by true artisit, and pretend everything is fine with the excuse of “well they should be grateful, their art is getting out there” bullshit. So yeah, reposting gets art out there but it doesnt help the artisit when people say “OH WOW THAT IS BEAUTIFUL, i wonder who made this… OH WELL DERPDADERP” -reblogs- you know what thats come to? Its called stealing. While there are the few that source the art when reposting (ya’ll are great and i hope you got the ok to repost) the majority of the time from what I’ve witnessed, someone took said artwork, posted it with no link or source to the artist with some comments about the art. (ex. this is cool, great fanart wish i knew who drew it)
Tell me again, how stupid are we? SO. You know what benifits the artist? Reblogging instead of reposting. Its that simple. Really, how hard is that?
So instead of reposting, REBLOG. GIVE ARTISTS THE ATTENTION AND RESPECT THEY DESERVE. and if anything ask permission from the artist, and make sure you credit them. If they say not to repost then its common sense not to. Respect the artist. No means no.
