New rule
Added 2025-01-20 14:42:25 +0000 UTCI promised new rules, and so I shall deliver.
From now on, I will credit artists. I know, I should have been doing that from the beginning, but I am a very bad deer. I figured including the signatures would be good; I never even considered including that part about "if you're the artists, inform me so I can credit you". I guess there's a lot more I have to consider. ^^U I take full responsibility for my blunder, and will rectify the problem going forth.
Why don't I simply use my art, you may ask? Well, frankly, I am not confident enough in my art. Sure, I know anatomy, I know shadow and light, but I feel my drawings are "stiff"; they lack "movement", even if it's an action pose. There are so many talented artists out there, and I use only pieces that move me somewhere in my soul. Also, their art breathes with life and fluidity. When I use images, it is not out of underhandedness, but sheer admiration, a simple decoration to my audio. I have close to 1,000 Alastor pictures saved, yet I have only used what I considered the best. And I do not believe I am there yet, or that I will ever achieve their level of talent.
Art: you can still post, but, if you happen to know the artist's name, do include it, please. If you don't know the name, you can still post, too. If I happen to use it, I will research the name first and see if it's okay to post.
As for my own drawings, please, feel free to use them. You don't even have to credit me. :)

Welcome back, dear Master! I'm glad all this mess is behind us... We'll be able to sleep better! π On the Discord server, people are already required to credit artists if they post images. I think it would be nice if this rule applied to weekly chats as well. And it would also reduce spam. On the other hand, I don't agree with the whole post, I find that you belittle your work and your talent. People who use your work should also credit you. It's a question of respect. You deserve to go to the corner. π But that's just the humble opinion of a tired dragon, of course.

And as for your drawings, compared to someone's (like mine) they are not just beautiful, but chef-d'Εuvre! Everything comes with experience, but I just have crooked h*nds) I couldn't go beyond the blueprints in my school years)
