Clarification on Derpibooru's policies regarding traced images

Not necessarily regarding tracing, but does Derpibooru have any policy against the somewhat severe editing of a dead artists work?

@Paradox_Brony
Same as for any other artist: Don't make it into something they'd probably hate, at least not without rendering it rather unrecognizable as originally coming from them.

@Princess Luna

So just to clarify, editing someone’s art, without their knowledge, so that a character from the franchise has a different skin tone is okay with the mods?

@Paradox_Brony
Editing someone's art to insert an OC is generally not ok — please look at the first bulletpoint of Rule #1.

Are you talking about a specific image?

@Derpy Whooves
It's important to be as vague as possible in order to be able to accuse people of the worst scenario imaginable.

@The Smiling Pony

Yes, but also a specific uploader. Generally this isn’t a bother and I assume everything is on the up and up.

But when I saw this post,
https://derpibooru.org/2175919
I realized that the uploader was taking different pieces of art from different artists and editing them in the same manner.

Again I don’t think it’s a large issue but I did some looking before coming here and that’s when I noticed that the artist of this image had been missing from the internet for over a year.

Since ideas of diversity and inclusion are these days more heavily tied to politics I don’t know if it’s right to take these pieces of artwork without asking the artist if they’re comfortable with somebody editing them in this manner.

@Paradox_Brony
Please report the image using the Report tab. This is not a report queue.

@Derpy Whooves

The reason I didn’t report in the first place was because I wasn’t sure if this was a policy that Derp had. If it’s not a policy that the site has then I can’t report it right?

@Paradox_Brony
If you don't know what rule to use, just use "Other" and explain the problem that you see in the text field, but in general what you're talking about is Rule #1 — If you report an image for Rule #1 and we disagree we'll reply to you and talk with you about why we ruled the way we did. Your question has nothing to do with tracing — please PM me if you still have questions, and please report the image that you think is a problem.

Well someone as me used tag is artist:徐詩珮,but It's not my artwork,it's artist:muhammad yunus,but she want writing me artist tag,i start a little mad,but if she used my vector,i can let her used my artist tag


So she draw my style look same my style,but it's not my artwork (In addition to using my vector)

@Amity (徐詩珮)
I will send you a PM to discuss how you would like this resolved

@Amity (徐詩珮)
@Ciaran
If someone draws an artwork of Amity's style, I hope you tag i can't believe it's not 徐詩珮

@Melisareb
You're right

@Amity (徐詩珮)
If you consider any of their drawings to be traces or recolors of your work, please report them. If they are derivative of your work (traces or recolors) then your copyright is retained and we will take them down if you would like. In the meantime I am still working on contacting the other artist.

@Ciaran
Okay,I don't hope she will broken my rules…
