NEWS


It has been brought to my attention from my good friend `Elandria that D.A. refers to Stock Photography as public domain

public domain
–noun Law.
1. the status of a literary work or an invention whose copyright or patent has expired or that never had such protection.
2. land owned by the government.


Stock is part of the resources gallery, therefore they should have the same or similar information statement.

First thing's first I want to extend my gracious thanks to both $Moonbeam13 and to ^Hanratty-Stock for their prompt response to this issue and to thank them for acknowledging a major copyright issue for stock artist across D.A.

The wording on the Stock Gallery has now been changed by Moonbeam13 to "Stock Photography which the provider has granted a licence for incorporation into other Deviant artists work"

Also I want to thank all the artists and my fellow stockers for their support and kind words on this issue ..

All else I can say is .. back to business :)

Again thanks to all involved for support and prompt resolution ... :)

Devious Comments

:icona-fire-within:
I saw this on Elandria's journal and admit I am appalled. It's like saying my photographs are not my own. You give artist's PERMISSION to use your stock. Completely different from the terms of public domain. I agree completely. It's wrong.

Thanks for your support and yeah its cos me and Elandria are good friend and that we care, and together have put a HELL of a lot of effort and money into gathering our respective galleries over the last few years for D.A. to blanantly disregard our input to the site as a whole :( it is saddening that its the way we are seen .....

I agree with you and `Elandria. When I saw it I was thinking, how could the hell dA do this with the stock artists? All of you have rules that we have to respect. I hope everything ends well and your stock images right back to that place.

:hug:

I just read `Elandria's journal and left a comment, then thought I should check yours as well. :(

I understand where you guys are coming from, and I hope it all gets straightened out. Your stock was absolutely fabulous, and from reading your other journals (really, I have read them, I just never left a comment :blushes:) I know how much time and effort you put into your stock. The places you photograph are just amazing, and you have a way of capturing them that is captivating.

In the end, though, an artist has to do what they feel is best. I hope you're able to get it straightened out and are able to come back - not for all of us who have used and loved your stock, but for yourself, if that's what you really want.

Best of luck. :hug:

Ouch.

I was going to submit stock... But now I guess not :P

This is... Outrageous... Especially because of people like you and other stock artists who take up a LOT of their time and effort producing and providing stock to help other artists...
