Art Theft (Patreon)

It has come to my attention that at least one person has been uploading some of the high resolution, Patreon exclusives, and a few homemade variants, to Deviantart and I am very disappointed.

It's one thing to modify or reupload the publicly available images with the watermark, but stealing and publicly uploading the patron exclusives doesn't just hurt me and what little income I'm making on patreon, but is also an affront to the other patrons who abide by the rules and generously support me every month. 

While I appreciate that the user did give credit to me as the original artist, I specify on all patreon exclusives that they are "for patron use only, not for public distribution." 

This isn't the same as showing some of your mates in a discord (unless it's your mates that are doing the reuploading, in which case please stop them!) and while this was probably bound to happen eventually, that doesn't mean I can give it a pass.

I have contacted deviantart about the issue, and I would ask that if any of you see any more of the Patron exclusives in the wild, to please let me know.

As always, I appreciate all of your enthusiasm and support!
