dialyn, I agree with your position on this, I had hoped that posting here would alert the artists that this is happening and also allow them to do as they might wish with regard to the information. I think it is quite a compliment to have your art "snagged" people always enjoy good artwork and it is very nice to have email with lovely pictures on it....I really do hope that the "snaggers" become more responsible with art and understand that the artist owns the image not them....I also think it is important that the artist get credit so that they can attact interested persons who might want to commission work...also it is yet another application for images, artists might consider it another market...or at least advertising.... Most of the people are trying to say they did not create the artwork...they "snagged" it and many do make sure they get permission....I have seen notices posted of lists of work that allow use and those who do not....House Mouse is one that does not....etc. I think that artists might also notifiy moderators that they do not want their artwork "snagged" and used....or that they do....it is a whole new world out there for digital artists...
