    Yeah but if the artist’s website sell merch and accepts donation then it’ll be removed as spam if the mods don’t particularly like it.

      That sounds like a mod problem, and plagiarism is not an acceptable recourse.
      Regardless of mod behavior, this post is about supporting artists and not treating their signatures (for lack of a better term) as ads to be removed.

        I was being facetious
        But I had a picture from election truth alliance removed because it had their website on the bottom…
        They’re a non-profit, not spam.
        I don’t remove attribution from stuff I share, unless it’s really big and has the twitter/Instagram/etc logos all over it… Sometimes it really is an ad.
        This is the picture that was removed, btw:.

          Ahh, that makes more sense. I must admit, sometimes I do eat the onion.
          Yeah, I agree that looks more like data than spam, and social media sites aren’t artists.

            well that’s why the /s tag was invented… I just feel like it loses something if I label it…
            SIKE!
            NOT!
