I think that is very shady and not okay, personally. So basically she took the content of this thread and the work of the artists without asking any of us if we were okay with that, spent a couple of hours making a webcam vid, and then put advertisements on it so she could profit. I just find the whole thing very disrespectful, and I highly doubt she will respect the wishes of the artists on this occassion as she didn't when she was, in her own words 'spending hours finding fan art to fit the video'.īut my biggest problem with all this is that that video is monetised. One even had big red text all over her website that TradeChat linked to saying 'PLEASE DO NOT USE, ALTER OR REPOST MY ART'. Two did not mind, the other three said they were absolutely not okay with it and were going to ask her to remove their work. Each told me she had not asked permission. In one case, the art was attributed incorrectly (to iFunny), and out of all the artists 5 got back to me. So I contacted the artists in question, again, despite them being linked in the description. I got a bit suspicious because despite linking this thread in the description of her video she never once mentioned it in the video (not even a 'hey if you like more check out the link in the description for the thread!') and that felt a little disingenuous to me - almost like she was trying to hide it. The fan art images she used in the video she did not ask permission for. However, I am not okay with this after talking briefly with the lady who made the video in the youtube comment section of the video. I am well aware that TradeChat made a video version of this thread and linked it in the description. Curse did an absolutely wonderful take of this thread which I thoroughly enjoyed!
