[mod] Regarding...

Other people's fanart.
You may post pictures and links, but if their site explicitly states to 'not post or reproduce', please adhere to their wishes. If they ask you to take a picture down, please do so.

I think fanartists that do not want promoted are in the minority, so not allowing any would be a loss for the community in general.

I deleted the previous post since it seemed like it would give the wrong impression to a casual reader.
Thanks.

Well, we could make it so that fanart posts are locked? I also think it would be a shame to not at the very least share links. ;-; So I'm glad we're going to still be allowed that.

if we wanted to protect all copyrights and stuff, the whole community would have to be locked...and i don't really want to do that. fandom thrives on being in the grey area, so i'm going with 'use your own judgement'.
