Long as Tumblr has been around
As an artist expect to see your work show up every now and then. Hopefully reblogged with credit given. On Tumblr, alot of times not. People don't necessarily understand image ownership and what not. Most of the time there is no issue.
Sometimes though, you see your work, uncredited, and added with a ton of creepy tags.
You will see it modified by someone expressing themselves in photoshop or some other image editing program.
You will see some snarky ass comments about your work, from some rando.
Then you realize how much you APPRECIATE those people who do follow the rules, and you see their names for years and just smile.
So to all of you still here actively - Thanks

FYI - if you have in your bio that you don't believe in creative ownership on the internet (i.e. "if somone puts their art online it's now copyright free"), that's an instablock from me. It doesn't cost anything to give artists basic respect, and that's not how copyright law works.
