Okay I know I couldn't find the original artist of the picture but I've been already given crap about that. I've tried to be polite and explain but still people bash me for it. Please, if you don't like it don't comment.

no
you don't understand
FAQ #306: Does "Crediting" let me use whatever I want?FAQ #157: Can I use things created by other people in my submissions?
people are 'giving you crap' about it because it's against the rules
it's not bashing
there's nothing to explain--this isn't your art, you shouldn't post it here

make a journal entry or something, don't change other people's hard work without even asking them!

I'm sorry I thought you were criticizing me about it, I took it the wrong way. But yes I actually am making sure to get their permission because I didn't see it. I will make sure to fix this.

...hm...i doubt they'd give it to you, no offense...
especially since a lot of the artists are japanese...
couldn't you put the text without a picture?
(also, you might want to take this specific one down; i looked it up and it says the original's been deleted probably because of everyone stealing it...ah...)
Annabelle-Kirkland's avatar
Yeah, and I will make sure to fix everything.

...alright...
you realize that would be taking your entire "character tribute" folder down? and just saying, it's kinda rude to take someone's art and call it an OC...

Yes, I do and is it okay if I announce it to my watchers first? Oh and about the OC I was just using it as an example and I mentioned that.
