Not even Equestria Daily? How are you going to become a popular artist?
One of the things that G4 fans do is share artwork. Ponibooru is a way for others to see your works. |

ooohhh, did the poor little shitty drawtumblr get some "constructive criticism" from a nasty troll anon? Better go hide in your hugbox you stupid cunt |
| SpecialAnon #1206689 3 months ago |
While I question the reason the artist has provided, and the overgeneralization of this site's community, I must at least agree that if an artist says to "stop posting" their art anywhere else, we should abide by it out of respect. |
| Glord #1206693 3 months ago |
and their drawing arm.
and their legs too. |

well okay then it is their artwork
also I'm not sure how many times this has been stated but don't use delete_me tags there's a report image button right there and it tells you at the top of the page in red how hard is it to read that |
| ProfessorOfHoers #1206710 3 months ago |
@Special
Oh, I agree. Artists should be entitled to their own work and have their wishes regarding where it's posted respected. That doesn't change the fact that I find this post completely weak sauce and unnecessarily full of drama. And so what if racist or trollish anons make fun? What if other people really enjoy it? You could build a select base that way. It's been shown time and time again, however, that negative comments grab attention and influence people WAY more than positive. If this person is so touchy then they would be upset even if the positive to negative comment ration was 10-1 |

| DeeperMadness #1206719 3 months ago |
Do you know what the horrible thing is? The artist reads only the posts by the trolling anon and not the rest of the community's efforts to shut him up. It's a bit like the "Broken Britain" argument. |

"Oh I want to bee a grate artist but I can't take criticism from anons at all, but I don't mind people with names, even though it's not their real name so it's just like being behind the mask of anonymity." Grow up and take it or just get off the internet. |

I just checked out her tumblr. She's a decent artist, but there are better artists with far better attitudes.
While she has a right to dislike our ways, Shannon's being a real bitch. I know she won't read this, but still... Shannon, there's this thing called "Projection". It's bad. You do it. People have opinions. They might run counter to yours. Get over it. And really, if someone here ignores her demands and posts her stuff, what recourse does she have? The vast majority of what she draws is either characters from copyrighted works (Disney), or derivative thereof (MLP). In other words, legally she can't do shit because she's not the copyright holder, and we'd never post her original stuff anyway. Normally, I'd be all for respecting an artist's wishes about reposting, but her bad attitude makes me want to start posting EVERYTHING of hers EVERYWHERE just to piss her off. |
| DeeperMadness #1206762 3 months ago |
@ZePassionateOne:
I hate having to say it about people, but if he or she is so adamant about being disassociated with the FiM community then perhaps we're better to dust our hands of him or her. The artist dwelt in relative obscurity before; apparently he or she wishes to continue to do so. |
| Robomorons #1206768 3 months ago |

| OzarkBrony #1206784 3 months ago |
Oh. Another thing, Shannon. *ahem* You said, "...all of my artwork stays HERE or on my DA account where most people can't hide behind the anon feature and bash/tear down the artist for not catering to their 'wants' and 'needs'..."
You state you want to be a professional artist. Guess what? You're gonna have to get used to criticism, much of it unkind and uninformed. In the professional world, no one gives two shits about your opinion. You do what you are paid to do, to the specifications that the client wants, not you. And if you blow a gasket when anyone complains about the end result, then you won't be getting another job anytime soon. |
| DeeperMadness #1206789 3 months ago |
Nah, don't spam the art everywhere. We'd be cutting off our own nose to spite our face. If we behave poorly about this, we could see other artists such as MS, JJ, CL, Swaetshrit, and Christ knows how many others follow suit.
You don't shit in your own life raft. Let's be the bigger man here. |

| OzarkBrony #1206829 3 months ago |
I'm not an anon, so the criticism isn't directed against me specifically. I only have a problem with people who say they want to be "professionals" yet can't take criticism.
I draw too. I know I'm not very good, and I know I don't take criticism well. That's why I never post anything. I have no interest in actually spamming the interwebs with her art. My time is better spent doing things that are somewhat more constructive. Also, even though I don't think it's a huge concern, I'd rather not annoy the artists we do want to keep around, like MS (if he'd quit doing explicit lolicon), JJ, CL, 7N, etc. |
| OzarkBrony #1206874 3 months ago |
Let me correct and clarify myself: my art has been published, back when I worked for a small-town newspaper a few years ago. And I was paid (very little), so I guess that technically makes me a professional even though I don't see myself that way. I'm not ashamed of the work I did, but I also know there are artists far better than me, and I have no interest in publishing art again until I can improve enough that I could justify it. I much prefer writing anyhow ^_^ |

SpecialAnon@1206689 said: ^This. I don't care how poor OP's reasons are, we shouldn't post it. Giving your personal reasons for what someone else should do in a matter such as this is irrelevant. Of course, this is the Internet. People will do whatever they want, because people choose to not respect others' wishes. However, that doesn't mean you should. And as weak as OP's argument is (because I don't see myself as an Anon or as attributing to what is part of whatever cesspool exists here,) the arguments being used here do not trump it. It's not your work, and you don't have the right to distribute it. Period. Your reasoning is irrelevant, because it isn't your work, and you don't lose anything by it. If OP wants to lose fans, doesn't want new ones, or doesn't want criticism, then that's OP's choice. So if you aren't OP, then stop coming up with reasons, and just say you're going to post it regardless of what OP says, because you want to. As for the mods, I've seen Eco post twice in memory. If there are other mods, then they do things behind the scenes to keep the site going (although, I feel as if it is policed mostly by users.) If there are just two moderators, then they honestly can't do much of a job of policing. It is too much of a hassle unless this is their sole job. As such, we have to rely on ourselves to make decisions. And if that is the case, then OP's art will be intentionally sought out and posted everywhere by the few people here who think they should decide how OP's art is exhibited and distributed. I apologize OP, but some bronies don't care about the fact that it is your art or your request. I'm sorry. Your best bet is to simply not post your work online or to make it as private as possible. |
| AkatsukiKaizoku #1206979 3 months ago |
I agree on a topic, if she or he, doesn't want her art in other places... It's okay, we stop messing with her.
But, generalizing EVERYONE from a single page is stupid, the same would be for attacking FurAffinity because everyone is furry or dA because stealing is common and mods get assholy from time to time. If you don't KNOW a shit about how stuff is done, don't talk a SHIT then, not to mention you lost because your racism. Tumblr might be good, but is mostly reblog only, you don't GET to know people that much there, I usually follow people that I know or thematic tumblrs, but that's it. Not to mention you just took another opinion, you probably don't even agree with the whole comments about these places, but you still use them to shield behind. I knew people that were assholes because they thought they're THE shit, but generally, they're pathetic, I can mention some even... But why bother? So okay, we don't repost your art, but we would love not to see a stupid comment like that, good night. |

| Anonymous #1207310 3 months ago |
Believe it or not, you don't have to go throw some extensive legal process to establish copyright. It's instantly granted simply by virtue of being the artist. We ought to respect her requests.
That said, she can go get bent. Good luck becoming an animator without the exposure of sites like EQD. |

Hey guys, newsflash: she's completely correct.
If her art is posted here, the racist Anons are just gonna be a bother to everyone in the threads. Of course it's gonna happen. If you weren't so budy being so friggin' smartasses you'd have read what she wrote and understand what she was saying. She's not insulting YOU, only the trollAnons and she's completely correct about that. |

"No attempts to stop it"
Are you so sure about that? Also @ Anon707 I was referring to their comment about people acting as though her comments were directed to the other members of the site when she was refering to the troll anon. |
| Fronzel #1208204 3 months ago |
If all her pics on the booru are tagged correctly, she has only one humanized Twilight: >>82543
So apparently one post of mild "blacklight" hub-bub and "I always saw Twilight Sparkle as being Asian because she reminds me of an anime heroine" are "assholish anons" with "entitlement to White and/or Asian moe versions of all the ponies when drawn as people". The woman needs to grow a spine. |

Troll comments are "rampant" on any site without proper moderation. Anon #1207843, my protecting this woman assuming that he posted this in good faith does not excuse YOUR not being able to differentiate between trolls and the generally decent users on a site.
Bronies' only real fault is frequenting sites like /mlp/ or Ponibooru which have expressedly little to no interest in moderation, rather than trying to boycott them and more actively creating more heavliy moderated boards. Which would be the only real course of action they could take. Maybe that's what needs to happen. When it is a choice between a blatant troll's freedom of speech (who's never going to return thanks for it) and preserving oversensitive/unsavvy child/young teen or grandmother who's going to visit the site, it's not a question for me which side I am on. However all this does not excuse YOU as an individual from not falling victim to generalization and giving due respect. YOU are pushing the responsibility of dealing with this bad element to people who have thicker skins than you and who are only normal fans who come here for enjoyment same as you. If you want to instigate a change, you should now better where your allies are. |
| Fronzel #1208411 3 months ago |
Vree, there's already a hugbox devoted to MLP and it's called ponychan. |
| Vree #1208440 3 months ago |
PS Before this makes the headlines as "Vree supports taking our freedom", don't worry xD There's precious little chance that Eco will ever budge. Ponibooru will always remain the same old site as we know it. (=A mess. :p) The same goes for /mlp/; critics will eventually have to learn to ignore these or pretend that they don't exist. All we can do to prevent these guys from fleeing is keeping the hug box sites as @Fronzel puts it going. When they are absorbed enough in those they won't put too much weight on what's going on elsewhere.
And there I'm done with another exhaustive answer xD I hope it helped someone and it didn't bother you guys too much. (You know I love you.) |

| Takashi_0 #1208529 3 months ago |
>Ponibooru will always remain the same old site as we know it.
Not if Eco and Feather have any brain cells, it won't. Face it, we need mods who actually do shit around here. There isn't a single day that goes by that we don't have some sort of argument here. Do they simply not care? Because they certainly give that impression since they don't seem to see that stepping into a thread and at least saying "guys, seriously, shut up or we'll bring out the banhammer" is a good idea. And that's not even getting to the fact that copy pasta and spam is all over the place. |
