I'm still here..for now

Tue Aug 7, 2012, 1:07 PM
I haven't created any new art in a while because my computer was in storage while my husband and I have been moving around for his job. Since February, we have lived 3 different places but I think we have finally found a place to settle down here in Oklahoma. My husband is joining the ironworker's union so he won't have to travel around as much.

My parent's house burned down a month ago. Fortunately, they got out safely and they have renter's insurance so they can replace everything. Amazingly, all the photo albums were okay and they only lost the photos that were hanging on the wall. Pretty sure between my sisters and I we can replace those. My computer was at my parent's house, so it was destroyed. Luckily, all my files and art were on my external hard drive and I had that here with me. Their insurance replaced my computer and my parent's had it delivered to a store near me, so now I can do my art work again.

I'm a little bit frustrated though because I made the mistake of doing a Google search on some of my images and found 8 new websites using my art without credit or links. It kind of makes me not want to put anything new up. It kind of makes me want to completely delete my deviantart account. But the images are already out there so deleting my account wouldn't help. So, I am making new art now, but I don't know if I will upload it.

I try not to sweat the artwork abuse... I only post fairly small jpg versions, so they are limited in what they can do with it...
People will always steal, no matter what you do, and I refuse to let them stop me from creating and posting my stuff.
It's therapeutic for me and I won't let them take that from me.... :nod:

I usually try to turn a blind eye to it, but there was one woman who used my artwork in a post where she supports the legalization of LSD and other psychotropic drugs. I don't support that, so I did ask her to take it down. Fortunately, she took it down with no problem. And there was a artist who posted a bunch of fractal artwork on her site without crediting any of the artists but had the nerve to have a copyright notice on her site telling people not to use her art without permission.
