There has been some discussion here about a community where artists can share their work. This community seems like an obvious place for that, but it is currently mostly people sharing art that they appreciate.
I was thinking of possibly doing weekly threads where people could share their art without having it show up in the main feed, but I would also like to open up a discussion on it.
Since I had totally forgotten that I was a moderator of this community since it’s never generated any reports, I also went ahead and set the banner and thumbnail to something random. (Last art image on my phone and the first post ever in this comm). I will pick replacements from this thread that get the most upbears.
Reverse image search exists regardless of signature or exif data. Not saying people shouldn’t post their art, just be aware that someone can track it to socials if even if you scrub it and don’t mention your name.
these concerns are really important and its good to point out here.
its a topic that is probably overdue for another discussion site wide sooner than later. or some good effort posts re: how to conceptualise the risk hexbear might pose to you the poster and best practices for certain types of posting.
