Yet again i must say another string of furry art work (great artwork i might add) with no links back to the artists page or the original posting where you can usually find the artist anyway, luckily i knew where to find them this time and fill them in for who ever approved these uploads/the uploader...Its a shame you can upload anything you want here (with in the rules) and not have to give credit at all, granted this is a free website and im not aware of anyone getting paid from uploading so no harm done but its frustrating when you get something like these last few furry uploads that are really great but nowhere to go to see more or go find the artist and say "Hey great job!" or something like that...i know its not likely to change but still i feel for some reason i should voice my concerns again...

Im glad to hear there is at least a 'grey' area that you have set up to do your best to give artists credit as far as watching the regular uploaders i cant imagine just how many users are on here that upload that'd be a nightmare to check. Though i commented what i did because when i wrote that comment 7 furry images were uploaded and not one had a source, this one uploaded by (Glabol) and 6 more uploaded by (no-scrubs) i can see why (glabol) wasnt checked and all only having 2 uploads though (no-scrubs) has 700+ and 0.7 images daily.

Oh well i guess i was just thrown off by how many hand zip all for a source, i mean the other one (gladbol) uploaded did have a source so if someone checked his uploads out they would have found the artist but not one of ( no-scrubs) had any not a single one and even though they had the artist in the tags, like you said artists move on or retire and he moved to twitter so their sources are almost 2 years out of date as far as finding new art from the artist and his twitter/image link on twitter should have been added to at least one of them in my opinion.

^^; Anyway i'll stop bothering you guys, you are clearly doing your best and things will slip through i'll do my best to post sources to the artists i'm familiar with like i did for these and hope that some one else will catch the ones that slip by me.

Have a good day~

ah. shame on me for not constantly checking over my uploads to see if the sources are always up-to-date. even though I always try and get the artist tagged so you can at least try and do a google search if the source somehow goes kaput. i sure do love getting dragged in the comments for not spending my entire life on this website.

anyway, thanks for calling me out and not even saying who the artist is. it's notbad621.

You're welcome for me calling you out, as i'm the one that put the links back to the originals on all of your recent Dylan uploads and these two from notbad621. As the uploader it is your responsibility to put the source link sorry you dont see it that way and lets see you google "dylan" and see what comes up, really really helpful for finding that artist...

Weather the artists has moved on or the link goes bad isn't really your problem years and years down the line again artists move on/the site gets shut down etc, but you posted something new with no link or artist name...again being the uploader its your responsibility, having the artist tag is pointless when the artists name is so common for example Dylan, Stone, Redsun, etc With a unique name such as Notbad621 it is very ease to find links and pages on the artists.

Again you're welcome for calling you out, as in this case sense i put the link up to the original upload the need for an artists tag/commenting who the artist is, is a mute point if there is a link, even an old one. Also commenting these last few comments is the longest i've spent on this site ever...

Hello, and sorry for coming late to the party, it's been quite a while since I could do something around here that wasn't just bumping pictures to remove duplicates.

First of all, everyone is more than welcome to express their concerns. You can do it here, in public, you can also reach mods and admins via private message... We want the site to grow and get better, and users' feedback is welcome.

Now, the thing about crediting artists and adding source links. In case there are no links, I use Google's reverse image search to find the source, so proper credit and links can be given. Unfortunately, it doesn't work 100% of the time, that's why we also have 'source_needed' and 'unknown_artist' tags. Not because we don't want to credit artists, but because we haven't found the source of their work or even their name.

People in comments can be very helpful when it comes to missing tags -including artist-, links or even if they spot duplicates.

Like it has been said many times, we try our best. We are far from perfect, we can't get everything right, but learning from both the hits and the misses is good. And if the community is helpful, that's great.

Anyway, I'd like to apologize for any inconveniences, since I approved some of the latest furry uploads and despite trying to find some, couldn't get as many as people would like.

The upload system needs a small...Or perhaps rather major change for things to be easier to tag and source. Right now you can upload 15 images at the same time, however you can not suggest tags nor add sources to each and every image you upload, instead you have to bunch it together at the end for all of them making it pretty useless to even have the option to upload 15 images at a time.

So yeah, it should be tags and sources per uploaded image.
