hey so i wanna talk abt this real quick… it’s super cool to see my art on the jumbotron but the person in the pic (not OP) didn’t ask first and it just sucks because i work really hard on my art and it’s just a nice courtesy to have
(here’s the original) ik it might seem like “that’s stupid who cares they’re not selling it” yea they aren’t but it still stings when something i’ve been putting a lot of time into is just taken for anything w/o permission. ik it’s just text but like i didn’t pic a random font—
off the internet, i’ve been hand drawing each one, trying to make them as fun and inclusive as possible. idk please just ask first regardless, like it means a lot when u ask first esp when something cool like this happens.
and i don’t want it to seem like im trying to gatekeep my art or not let other enjoy it, or that i’m not happy it’s on the jumbotron. i’m just trying to show, for me personally (all artists have different opinions on this) asking first means a lot
also i don’t need to know who this girl is i don’t care i just want people to ask before using my art that’s why i made the thread so if u know who the girl is for some reason i dont care keep it to urself thank you

Omg I was at this show and saw this sign on the Jumbotron and thought oh they are here 💗💗!! (Bc i recognized your work from the tl)
Knowing it was stolen and copied I wish I could take my cheering back
@lizeok
I completely understand your point bc at the end of the day, everyone who saw the poster in the arena thought she did it, completely taking off your artist credit and effort. I’m sorry Liz, hope people understand they need to ask for permission first🥲
@lizeok
@SerendipityPar1
that really sucks… i’m so sorry they did this to you. and you have the right to feel the way you feel wether they sold your art or not, it was used without prior consent (it’s really cute btw!!)
@lizeok
i know its unrealistic maybe to think of these things as an artist but i wish at the very least theyd kept your handle on there Somewhere in big letters cause at least then it wouldve been seen;; im sorry this happened to you lizi i hope it stays an isolated incident 💗
@torakiro
thank u nini 🫂🩷🩷 my user name was even small on it,, if they added it it wouldn’t have distracted from the point either >-< like u said hopefully it doesn’t happen again 🥹
@lizeok
you do very nice artwork! I hope in the future ppl see this and ask first before they use so at least you can get the credit! keep up the good work! 💜
@lizeok
omg i was confused 😭 i thought u were saying OP shouldn'tve posted this w/o asking u, i was confused why ppl were being supportive cause like "u brought it to a stadium.." but omg 😭 u're valid dw, posters r usually made by who's holding them so it's akin to stealing
@killvight
oh no no no i mentioned op bc I didn’t want people to think they were the ones who made the sign 😭 didn’t want them catching heat for just posting a sign they liked lmao
