>SAMPLE>COMISSION>very low res photo because artists are afraid of people stealing their art>NO AI TRAINING OR REPOST>censored art with promotions for their fanbox or patreon>posting as low quality gif so people can't use the grok edit picture feature>artist username plastered across the characterCan this kind of people be less mentally ill? I just want to appreciate their art.
If you don't like it don't look, fucking entitled consumer.
like 99% of the time it's dogshit art that nobody is trying to steal anyway, all this feels like a form of narcissism.
>>7838575It's about principles. There's no level required before you start doing this. And nobody is waiting until they get good enough before using watermarks. Also, there are a lot of high level artists using watermarks.
>>7838581Yeah, but traditionally watermarking is used by professional artists who want to protect their work so seeing tweens throw giant watermarks on their chickenscratch slop is really funny. Obviously skilled artists also use watermarks at times, but it actually makes sense when they do it as they've produced attractive, commercially viable work that is desirable for art thieves looking to feed AI models or repost other people's works.
>>7838590Say whatever you want, but AI niggers and chinese bootleggers don't discriminate.
>>7838575Its dogshit because they're relatively new to drawing. So each drawing they spend hours on is a bigger chunk of their experience. So if someone were to "steal" it, whatever that means, it hurts more. Someone whose been drawing for ten years isn't gonna agonize over this type of shit.
>>7838571Boichi and Kei Urana quit Xitter, that new feature really is backfiring if even manga artists are out.
>>7839342This is fair, I'm an old fart so I often forget how everything feels like a huge deal when we are young or starting something new.
>>7839342Guess that's kinda makes sense lol. I know back when I first started doing digital it took me like 8 hours for a single piece and I did like only a dozen a year. Nowadays it'll take me just 1-3 hours so to me a single art piece are just one and done. And I do about 150-200 a year
>>7838571It will just make ai art and ai art tracing even easier.Post lower res watermark plasted images and even less people will notice the already hard to see AI tells or mistakes.Also artists are crybabies, especially japanese ones. Nothing new.
>>7838571 uh ok
>>7838571I don't understand why they keep slapping more nonsense over their art.For people who just want to see the art it's annoying and for anyone who wants to "steam" or train it or just want it without watermark can easily do it with dozens of watermark removers.Do people actually think this is some bulletproof method that AI can't get past or people who want to actually care about?
>>7839549Removing the watermark also removed details from the original and added slip artifact. The watermark won.
>>7839569at least I can see the drawing now, still an improvement.
>>7839549>half the marks disappear>randomly sloppified edges>ratio changed for some reasonbased, watermarks workprobably would be even better if you varied the value and hue of watermarks to confuse it even more
