We had some issues recently with plagiarism (thanks @stekene for bringing them to my attention). Those users have been dealt with appropriately (including removal from the community).
To help prevent plagiarism, please include your username as a signature on your works of art when possible. Really easy to add to to a painting/drawing. For 3d things, pics that include your face or username (like on a piece of paper next to your art) would be great.
This isn't a requirement to get curated, it will just help me and others figure out when others are copying your work!
I will also pay more attention to this going forward. It's a shame that this is an issue, but such is life.
Hello, @kstreet
Happy New Year 2024!
It is very unfortunate to learn that some users have committed these unethical acts. On the other hand, I am glad that they have been detected and corrective actions have been taken. I hope they learn their lesson and do not deny themselves the pleasure of making art in the future.
I will take your recommendations into account. I will look for a way to authenticate my works, it seems to me that the use of the analog or digital signature will be more than enough. In extreme case, it would be a good idea to coin it as an NFT.
Greetings.

I didn't know about this, from now on I will create a simple signature to use in my pixel arts/nft.
It's a shame that this happens, thanks for letting us know!
