You guys, metadata is super important, you guys. I spread the word as it is important to all artist who ever suffered from art thieving or so. Ever.Īrt thief: well how can you prove its yours? No one has the right to take your intellectual property and hard work and repost, use or edit it without your permission. It WILL however, help you prove that you are the original artist whenever you have to.Īlways remember my friends. It also won’t make them stop editing out your signature. If you know how to do this in other programs / can confirm that it works the same way there, please tell me so I can add the information to this post.Īdding the Metadata will not stop idiots from taking and reposting your art. I’m not sure if you can do the same with any other art program. “Adding Your Contact And Copyright Info To Your Photos With Photoshop” on It’s really, really easy so check it out! There is a nice basic tutorial on how to add Metadata, or “additional file information” to your images in photoshop. And the best thing is, since this information is “hidden” in the code of your picture, it’s hard to remove it. It can contain all kinds of information, like Title, date, keywords for online seach engines, and copyright information. Metadata is like an invisible signature that is embeded into a file. But even if you didn’t, you should read on because I’m about to tell you a handy little thing that can help you to protect your art from such assholes as the anon who submitted this bullcrap, as well as art thieves in general. It has spread like wildfire over the past few days so I doubt there is any artist out there who hasn’t seen it.
