Lately there's been increasing problems on the internet with people ripping other people's work, or replicating work and posting at as their own piece without permission. I just wanted to say to you guys: always sign and date your work!!!
This is one reason why I originally left dA (along with the account being a lot of maintenance). There's nothing more important than keeping your ideas safe, especially when you want to make it in the arts as a career!!! So, even though someone could always take a free digital copy of your work for themselves, posting a smaller sized image, and putting your own watermark on the bottom can make a huge difference in having the work be able to be traced back to you. (Uh, ...I make everything sound confusing somehow.)
