Should you watermark your work?I haven't been doing it but I don't want people selling it on a shirt or something
there's no point because people can easily remove it using AI >>7401441
If I were to put your work on shirts I'd at least pay some dude in Venezuela or something 10$ to remove the watermark.On the other hand they stop your stuff from being on boorus, jannies on the big ones hate watermarked images even more than self-posting or personal hygiene.
No. Watermarks are dead. See —> >>7401441A replacement might be to integrate your name/brand into your work, but that is another topic perhaps.
>>7404457Yes always. I really hate when I go through an old folder and want to look up work that I loved but don't know who did it, but they left no artist name nothing to identify on it.Worse if they had the twitter artist meltdown and nuked everything.
>>7404516Watermarking isn't the same as a signature
Watermarks are fineWatermarks that ruin the image are not fine. Let people enjoy your works
>>7404457The only thing you can put is your artistic signature, but very few people use the watermark.
>>7404457No, it's the equivalent of putting a high tech lock, that require 30 different manipulation to open, on a flimsy door, that won't deter or stop someone from stealing from you and it'll just annoys everyone else and they won't bother with you.Always sign your work so people can find your art if they like it, but don't slap intrusive watermarks everywhere, it's ugly.
is there any ai proof watermark?
>>7404457unrelated but anime artists draw catgirls because they’re too cowardly to draw furries.
I only sign my stuff so people know that I drew this and because people can find me if they like what I do.
>>7404641Yes, I'm a coward. So what?
>>7404625>is there anything that can stop steam trains?you won't be missed, just like stablers
>>7404457>people selling it on a shirtyou can prevent this by drawing hardcore loli porn
>>7404499way better reason to do it, fuck those tasteless fags and their shitty AI aggregate trainers
>>7406864Is there anything that can stop asbestos?
>>7404457Nowadays those kinds of people aren't gonna bother stealing someone else's artwork for shirt prints. Too much effort. They'll just proompt them out.
>>7404457Just focus on actually being able to make good art first
just make the watermark part of the art
>>7406994I find it hilarious that some chud nigger got assblasted enough to make this.
>>7404457Signature, yes. Write in your socials and patreons. Keep the thing in a corner. I will repost your image and tell people how awesome you are.Watermarks and shit that goes over the main item in the image, no. There's a fair chance I won't even bother saving your stuff.
>>7404499>pay 10$ to a veneco to remove a watermark>10 fucking dollarsDumb cunt, that kind of shit is done for even less. 1$ give or take.>t. Veneco
>>7404457If you care more about your stuff not being 0.0000001% of an AI model than not ruining it with meta text, you should just quit art.And why do these now all come with "do not reupload" bundled? I thought adding a signature was supposed to account for that, it's like you WANT less publicity.
