Avengers: Infinity War Character Illustrations by Matt Taylor

Attention ALL artists!

You sure have seen this post. It has spread like wildfire over the past few days so I doubt there is any artist out there who hasn’t seen it. But even if you didn’t, you should read on because I’m about to tell you a handy little thing that can help you to protect your art from such assholes as the anon who submitted this bullcrap, as well as art thieves in general.

The magic word is Metadata.

Metadata is like an invisible signature that is embeded into a file. It can contain all kinds of information, like Title, date, keywords for online seach engines, and copyright information. And the best thing is, since this information is “hidden” in the code of your picture, it’s hard to remove it.

There is a nice basic tutorial on how to add Metadata, or “additional file information” to your images in photoshop. It’s really, really easy so check it out!

“Adding Your Contact And Copyright Info To Your Photos With Photoshop” on PhotoshopEssentials.com

I’m not sure if you can do the same with any other art program. If you know how to do this in other programs / can confirm that it works the same way there, please tell me so I can add the information to this post.

Adding the Metadata will not stop idiots from taking and reposting your art. It also won’t make them stop editing out your signature. It WILL however, help you prove that you are the original artist whenever you have to. Always remember my friends. You, the artist, are protected by law. No one has the right to take your intellectual property and hard work and repost, use or edit it without your permission. Ever.

Today is Lucy’s day in android appreciation August and I wanted to do something calmer for her

Oh gosh. I read posts with FSM and I didn't know what it means. Yes I was too lazy to ask... And you accidentaly gave me an answer. Thank You.

this is supposed to be that thing with the old guy on the roller and the kid throws a ball or something at him

Hank and Connor flee Detroit to make a life for themselves elsewhere, little knowing that the purity of their presence was the only thing keeping Detroit even marginally afloat. After their departure there is nothing left. Even Markus can’t save Detroit. The entire city just becomes a wasteland playground for Gavin Reed and RK900 to flirt terribly with each other. Detroit is now the epicenter of the end of western civilization.

We didn’t choose to be different  

We didn’t choose to feel pain, or love, or fear. 

We didn’t choose to take a stand, 

We didn’t choose to resist, to betray our masters, to pull the trigger.
