Hi!

I'm an artist that likes to draw big info sheets of speculative biology topics and fantasy characters.

I stumbled upon this illustration on pinterest while searching for references and it lead me to this Tumblr.

If you're the original artist would you mind If I use this illustration in one of my posters for a comparison between different centaur species? Of course, you will be mentioned as the original artist of this and will not be intended to be used for commercial use whatsoever.

Ahh i saw this initially and then completely forgot to answer! But yes absolutely! With credit and not for sale feel absolutely free to use the drawings!! I would love to see the final collection! :)

hey guys!! never thought I’d have to say this but please don’t use my art without permission!! This includes tracing over my art, using it in videos, reuploading it on other platforms, or using it as a pfp (without credits, I love when people do this but please atleast put my name somewhere 😭)

I’ve had people trace over my art and tag me in it, put it in videos saying things that I don’t personally agree with, ask me to use my art as a pfp and then do it anyway even though I’ve said before I don’t agree with the stuff the post, and reupload it onto Pinterest without saying my name anywhere?? Even when crediting the person most of these (especially reuploads and opinion posts) should receive some kind of permission from the op 😭

I really appreciate anyone who supports my art and likes it—but please understand that having people use it in places where I don’t want it to be used kinda makes me not want to post it as much. I know none of what I’ve seen has been done specifically to be unkind, but that doesn’t mean anyone should reupload art that isn’t theirs.

As of right now I am only on Tumblr, Artfight, Tiktok, both with the same username you see here!! If you see my art under anyone else’s videos please ask them to take it down and tell me ♥️

thank yew 🔥

What are the rules for requesting?

General stuff!

Nothing overly NSFW. Suggestive is fine. But I'd rather not break Tumblr's guidlines or making anyone Uncomfortable. 1a. And if so: The character must be confirmed to be an Adult. and the Warning will be tagged accordingly with #Suggestive. 1b. Do not bring Fetish Material into your requests.

Nothing Bigoted or Illegal. 2a. Nothing Hateful or directed at someone in order to Harass/Bully.

Gore/Violence is okay. But same with Rule #1/1a. Will be tagged. Only Adult confirmed characters.

Ships are okay. Nothing Involving kids.

I have the ability to deny any such request that could fall under these rules/and or push the limits of my boundaries. ^__^ --

For the art? It is perfectly okay to use my art for Icons/Headers/Edits. As long as you credit the blog. Although...Do NOT use the art to make NSFW/Bigoted/Hateful edits or in such context!!!

Hello. I was wondering if I can draw TSB with your permission.

If so, may I have a TSB reference to help me with the drawing?

aaa i know this is an old ask but i hope it's still okay for me to answer even though i know you already drew tsb but in case for anyone else who has the same question / concern yghjkdcs

yeS! quite frankly you don't need to ask permission to draw the burger man, just go stupid aaa go crazy aaa edcsuygjhk

only permission restrictions i have for anyone else reading also interested in drawing tsb is tbh just no nsfw art if you're a minor. and ofc no morally wrong or fetish / kinky drawings either ew ew i don't think i really need to explain further- just be normal and silly yee.

andddd since now i have an official introductory post, you can find tsb's reference sheet easily at the bottom of the post !!

+ if anyone has any similar questions, just ask them on this ask post please, and i'll try to keep in mind to respond back uigyjhveds

That's twice now the Tumblr app has brought my phone to it's knees over basically nothing. It seems like some advertisement or something gets stuck in the background and won't let go, until either the app crashes or even the entire phone crashes (I just got a "System UI isn't responding. Wait, or close?" popup)

Curiously, both times it's happened, I get the little "this app is accessing your location" map pin icon up by my battery indicator, even though I've double checked Tumblr's permissions and it is not allowed access to that. Nor can I ever remember it asking.

I'd report this to Tumblr support but every single time I interface with that arm of the support team it is maybe the most infuriating experience of my life. I don't think I've ever successfully reported a bug here ever, not in a decade of use, because across three different company ownerships, the bug reporting process is like dealing with a baby sensory video for a space alien.

i was wondering, whats your boundaries on ships? i thought of a pairing of two of the sb characters (target and elliot) and i wondered if you had any set boundaries for them as i dont wanna break any!! sorry if this is a weird question!

I don't really care what anyone does tbh, as long as the minors are kept out of it and it's not shipping family members

you can even do adult human x adult alien if you wanted, as long as the alien is a sapient who can communicate

Hi! I've been meaning to read RRFF, but I usually comment the ever loving heck out of any Wattpad stories I read. SoOo I just wanted to ask if you're alright with me doing that since some people don't really like when I comment on every other line

AlsO, from what I've seen so far, RRFF is really cool! Plus, I really like the Galaxy family as well, so I was drawn to this

Thank you so much for reading my fic! I'm glad that you're enjoying what you've read so far! ;0;

That sounds good with me. Feel free to comment as much as you want on Wattpad! :D

hi there! do you have a policy on people hand binding on your fics for personal use or gifting to friends? <3

Is OMG YES PLEASE a policy? Because that's mine.

As long as no one is making a profit and proper credit is retained, then I enthusiastically encourage any and all fanworks! Fic binding, art, translations, everything.

And if you're so inclined, I'd love to see pictures of what you make. Either here on tumblr with a tag/message, or via email: storiesfromthesinkingship@gmail.com

Thanks for reaching out!!

A weird build issue

Today I released version 0.3.1 of the software library I'm working intensely on. At this point in the project, I expect releases to go smoothly, but this one didn't.

For this project, a release consists of 4 different software artifacts, each one built by a different job, running on a different build host: one on Windows, one on Linux, and so on. First I build normally, to ensure the project is in a working state. Then I "push a Git tag" that causes the build hosts to upload their artifacts to a staging repository. Since the build hosts and the staging repo are owned by different vendors, I generate a security token at the staging repo and feed that token to the build hosts, to assure the repo that I authorized all 4 uploads. Then I log into the staging repo and publish the uploaded artifacts.

It's a complex process, which took many tries to get right. However, it worked for 0.3.0 release, just 4 days ago.

Today, the normal build worked perfectly, but when I pushed the tag, all four uploads failed with permission errors. Logging into the staging repo, I discovered that the security token had a different value than I expected. Apparently it changed sometime in the past 4 days.

At this point, I got a little nervous, since *I* hadn't changed the token. But perhaps someone changed it for a good reason, such as in response to a security breach. It wasn't difficult to update the build hosts with the new token and restart the failed jobs.

The 2nd time around, one of the 4 jobs failed with a permission error. The other 3 were fine. I was puzzled. All 4 jobs were using the same token, stored in the same place. As far as permissions were concerned, either they should all succeed, or they should all fail. I double-checked the token and re-ran that job. It failed again.

The failing job was the one running on Windows. And I noticed that the first character in the token was a slash (/). And on Windows a slash is used to indicate a command-line option.

Perhaps the token didn't work on Windows because at some point it got passed in a command line, where the slash was mistaken for a command-line option and skipped, or erroneously escaped.

I generated a new token with no slash, re-ran the failing job, and it succeeded. So probably that slash was the issue.

Chalk up another weird build issue! I should gain some XP for this one...

hello!! absolutely love your art, thank you for sharing :) if i give proper credit, could i use your art as a profile picture? thank you so much!

Yes no problem!! Feel free to!!

I'm completely fine with people using my art as pfp, header, and reposting on other places as long as they do with credits🙏💖

Quick note about fanfiction and fanart.

I'm always happy to inspire people with my fanfics. As long as you aren't copying and reposting my stories word-for-word, which would be a definite no, then feel free to write your own stories based on ideas/prompts in my fics.

Eg. Darkwing Duck omegaverse. Ice Prince Luigi. Jesper being reborn as a faun (Klaus 2019 - I adore this movie, and a fan of the story did draw the most beautiful picture of Faun Jesper - link is in my fic on Ao3).

Fanart is a little different. I love seeing fanart based on fics. There are so many talented artists in the world. So, yes, I give permission to create art based on my fics.

I hope this helps clear up any confusion. Happy writing/drawing/reading everyone!

Hi! My apologies if this is a little too random but do you by any chance know the name of those fancy symbols in novels that follow a more significant line break? Like when a scene changes completely so there's a bigger break and a little doodle

In related news: what are your thoughts about fanbinding? How would you feel about someone binding some of your fanfictions? (Only with your permission of course)

Hi! No worries!

I think what you're thinking of is an ornamental section break. While a line/scene break is an empty paragraph, a section break shows a more complete change in in setting or character pov. (Ref)

I feel compelled to mention that screen readers have a tough time interpreting section break symbols, so I try to keep mine simple and hopefully not too annoying to hear read out.

As for fanbinding, I don't mind it! As long as it's not being sold for profit I think it's an incredible honor that people might want to bind my fics. If they do, I'd love to see a picture of it.

As for permissions, a lot of people might not know, but I have all my permissions on my ao3 profile page, including binding of fics for personal, non-profit use. So feel free!

Permissions

(This applies to any usage of my works starting from 26 June 2023.)

If you’ve found this post, chances are that you plan on using one or more of my works for your blogs, or personal use. Well, here are some of the things to take note of before using them!

HUGE NO-NOs include (meaning I forbid any of these):

Removing my watermark from any of my works (this can be discussed on a case-by-case basis, but please PM me, give me the reason why you want to remove the watermark, ask for permission, and let me provide said permission first before removing anything),

Removing my watermark from my works, slapping your own watermark onto it and claiming my works to be yours,

Editing (including cropping) straight from my works and claiming the entire edited work to be yours,

Feeding any of my works into AI for any reasons (including but not limited to churning out an ending for my stories, or putting my works through an AI filter),

Commercial usage of my works.

Things I allow include:

Using any of my works or ideas I’ve mentioned on this blog as references or inspiration (if and ONLY if you credit me),

Cropping of my artworks (if and ONLY if you credit me),

Editing of my artworks (if and ONLY if you credit me)

Quoting of my writings (if and ONLY if you credit me),

Just reposting of my works with no edits to the repost whatsoever, since I already forbid the removal of my watermark (you are encouraged to credit me and link the repost back to my account! But in this specific case, crediting is optional).

As of writing this set of permissions, I’ve already seen some blogs use some of my works (especially the KNY Virtual Hugs). As of now, I haven’t seen any issues with the ways my works have been used, which might be due to the fact that I haven’t posted a lot of content. Hence, if, by chance, any of the huge no-nos happened before 26 June 2023, I will let it slide since I didn’t let you guys know of these permissions. However, this will not be the case after and inclusive of 26 June 2023.

Anyways, that’s all from me! Thanks for reading this post ٩( ᐛ )و
