I'm sick of fakers who want to be artists so they take other people's art & trace it, claiming it as drawn by themselves
which is why I refuse to use sheezyart anymore.

"So, I recieve a warning today. I'm not sure if it's from you, I have a bad habit of deleting things after reading them & not realizing who they're from.
At any rate. I'll probably be banned, as i once again commented in Tarechan's webpage - in response to someone else.
But, before I get kicked off here (& not bother coming back if I'm ever allowed) I figured I should tell you why I did what I did, & why it doesn't matter to me if I'm banned.
This is an art site, for artists to display their work.
This isn't a place for 13 year olds to post traced images, & get complimented on how awesome they are, when the rightful compliments should be going to the person who drew the original picture.
At least, that's what I thought this place was... after the last few days, I guess I was wrong.
Personally, I don't even want to be associated with this place now. This really disgusts me. Someone could take a picture I've drawn, trace it, add some different shading or something, claim they drew it, & you're okay with that? Seriously, WTF???
That's really a great policy. Personally, art theft is already running rampant without people encouraging it. It honestly disgusts me that you allow this to go on.
I guess I don't really have much else to say, other than rehashing how shocked I am that you don't even care if someone takes a direct trace from a game guide & claims they drew it "with a reference"
Yeah, a reference. I overlayed the damn images & they're the exact same. 95% of the lines match up. But I guess it's not like that matters.
Anyways, I just wanted to put in my 2 cents. not like it matters.?
Okay, you guys should really get a life..
Sorry for saying this but.. You're saying to tarechan she shouldn't copy, but you know what? By copying stuff you can learn a lot! You learn to look at the drawing very good, try different things, and out of that all you can create your own style!
By copying stuff you can get loads of experience so you can become a great artist yourself!
Saying to her that copying is bad is so lame, you should get a life ¬¬
Hey, I have absolutly NO problems with someone using references, or even copying, but that's just out & out TRACING
that is NOT COOL.
As an artist, you don't take someone else's work, trace it, & then claim you drew it.
Everyone has to start somewhere, & I realize that, but telling me I should get a life because I don't want people taking credit for things they CAN'T DO? That's pretty pathetic.
& it's also pretty pathetic to ENCOURAGE HER to trace.
Actually, she is claiming she drew it, she keeps saying "I DREW THIS"
I realize it's Final Fantasy art. I have no problem with fanart, but I have a problem with someone tracing original art, & then claiming they drew it by just 'looking' at the original.
I wouldnt point the finger at only one side about people freaking out over this. I think people should know better than to upload art that isnt their own. Those original pencil lines were made by another artist, not this SA artist in question.
(gah, SA keeps timing out on me, so it took me 3 times to reply to you *lol*)
She writed in the discribtion where she has the picture from, she never said it was her own idea (she told that its drawed by her, well ofcourse it is, traced of not it's still done by her)
Well anyway, this is no use (many people got banned allready so lets leave it like this) gomen
