What is Art Theft and why is it so serious?
Art theft is when you take a piece of art work, drawing or photo, and claim / use it as your own personal work when you are not the true owner. By uploading a pose, you are taking responsibility for it and you will be banned if you commit theft. You need permission to use other people’s artwork. Taking someone’s art and modifying a couple things on it is still theft. You are allowed to use references as long as you do not trace it. No one can copyright a position, but if your pose outline matches up exactly to a photo or artwork you will be banned. Some people sell poses, and if you try to use one without paying for it, that would be art theft. You cannot upload copyrighted characters (like Digimon® adoptables) but you can dress up your wolf in a Digimon® costume. You cannot use found clipart or images from Google. Art theft can be many things, so please clear all questions up ahead of time with the ART, rather than risk the consequences. Even if you do or do not contact the ART prior
