someone brought this up about supertouch not crediting their sources... running my own blog i know that when this happens, it kinda sucks. i try to credit people but sometimes on rare occasions i forget to. found the link to this article on theworldsbestever. i was wondering how supertouch could be at so many places at once. |

I don't have much to say on this topic. I do feel that if the artist/photographer went out of their way to embed a watermark, it's quite clear they don't want other people using it. And I do feel that in most cases, the photographer would happily grant permission for use if asked and if properly attributed...which really isn't that difficult.
However, what is up with "Authors" sidebar on left with some huge artists listed, yet nothing comes up when you click on any of them. I highly doubt names like Shepard Fairy, Mark Ryden, et all would be guest contributors to such a suspect blog. Just reeks of false advertising to me, if not a single one of them has anything other than "Sorry, but the author you are looking for has not posted any articles yet." when you click on them. Suspect.

yeah.. that's pretty messed up to jack other people's pics w/ o siting the source. it only takes a minute.
that being said, i do like the blog. you'd think he'd be able to get more of his own pics being the ex editor of juxtapoz

He doesn't cred others cause he doesn't want the readers to jump to another site/blog... NOT that most blog readers don't already know about the 3-5 blogs who all run in the same circle. (art, sneakers, fashion, etc.) He thinks we are little mules with blinders on. He has the most "popular" art blog for the moment and is clawing at the expense of EVERYONE to stay that way... not realizing the big picture that its a community and everyone knows everyone else. He's basically crapping where he eats and sleeps. Don't worry it will come to bite him soon.
