I recently uploaded post #2639535 and tagged both Braxia and Walter Sache, because Braxia redrew post #335195. Is that proper tagging?
News: Feb 26, 2025 Show
Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.
Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.
Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

Topic: Tagging two artists?
Posted under Art Talk
Yeah, it is still considered an edit if the artist retraced an original work. So, both artists get tagged in this case.
We don't allow traced artwork, so while technically both artists were "responsible" for the creation the image itself is simply not allowed here.

Oh come on! Why is that not allowed?

Blatant traces are generally seen as disrespectful to artists, often (but not always) go uncredited, and are generally not worth archiving.
Even if e6 were to allow traces: do we allow unlimited traced copies of the same image? If not, which ones take priority?

Well, in the original description of the image I uploaded, Braxia DID credit Walter Sasche. Does that change anything?

Considering you ignored every other point I put forward, no.
