Lately, I've seen a lot of a fanart from Japanese made into wallpapers or simply
posting it here. Here I thought YOU CAN'T! And I doubt they (I noticed a few of
them in NARUTO section) had permission from the original artist! Besides, most
of the Japanese Fanart Websites joins ONLINE
FANARTS PROTECTION. It clearly stated YOU CAN'T USED ANY OF THEIR FANARTS TO
OTHER SITES. Which means you can't turn them into wallpaper too..... MT needs to
be more strict on this matter....
Oh dear @.@
I know that some people have been using stuff that was like done by some manga
groups or whatever... but I can't tell the difference since I don't know the
stuff too well... but that is quite awful -.-
A greater difficulty lies in the language barrier as well.
You go to an English site and it says "ask permission" so you do that
first.
You go to a non-English site and find a nice scan with no idea what the text
means so you share it. A solution will be very difficult, but possible if the
effort is put I guess
Well, it is in fact something serious, and we don't want anyone going around
calling MT members thieves now would we (might damage MT's reputation as well
)
Hmmm... the thing is, I remember reading MT rules regarding usage of fanart from
Japanese websites is stricly forbidden... And I can't remember where's the
thread... I tried looking for them just now.... But, I couldn't find it... And
because of that, I opened this thread... Since too many members used Japanese
Fanarts here... Esp lately. Since MT din't take any action, more and more comes
in....

i tried so hard to stop myself from taking those cute cute doujin pics....XP
eheh
I think doujinshi is fine... You can find a lot of doujinshi scans... or you
bought them yourself..... I don't know... for me, there's a different. *shrugs*
Still, if anyone notice most of the Japanese fan artist is also a doujinshi
artist. XO I dunno anymore.....

I've been wondering why they haven't cracked down on this. I've seen this guy's work used more than once here.

Well, upon reading
"author unknown" means "I stole it"
i think as long as you know who's the author and gave credits where it's due, it's alright, rite?
