MS. GRAVEYARD DIRT

Man, I’m really fucking down.

DISCLAIMER: If you decide to reblog any of my roadkill pictures please keep all of the relevant information (i.e., name, title and Flickr link) with the image. (Why?)

My roadkill work’s cool enough to post pictures of (or reblog), but not cool enough to support? You guys understand that if I can’t sell what I’m working on then there’s no fucking point in doing it, right? I can’t open and run a fucking business if I don’t have any fucking business. (I mean, how the fuck am I suppose to sell my shit if no one attributes my shit to me?)

When you strip information from my entries and post my pictures uncredited you’re actively taking away future customers. When you strip information from my entries and post my pictures uncredited you’re actively undermining my professional career. When you strip information from my entries and post my pictures uncredited you’re actively taking food out of my fucking mouth.

Tumblr, every-fucking-time you allow something uncredited to pass through your hands you’re limiting that artist’s exposure and their ability to continue working artistically; why do that to someone if you really dig what they’re doing?

32. lizziefeather said: You can put a “source” on all of your posts, I think it’s permanent so someone can remove the hyperlink on the image but it still says “source: graveyarddirt” on anything reblogged. It’s so disheartening to see people remove credit.
