Do you post your art in high quality resolution?
Like most artists, I have a fear with my art being repurposed for something so I lower the quality of my art before posting publicly. Do you do that too? Or do you not care because it is what it is? Share your thoughts!Jul 15, 2022

Occasionally I've seen edits of my art on Google images or like.. wattpad, and I've only found it hilarious. The people who take my art are majorly just kids who can't make a profit off of it online. And my drawings aren't even profitable by nature because of the subject material and style. I don't draw things that can easily be made into stickers or merchandise that easily appeals to people, and I seldom draw fanart.
Sometimes I see my art in peoples' pinterest boards and it's actually really flattering to see my drawings right next to the work of famous and amazing artists whom I look up to in their collections. So, i kinda like that it's out there. My day job is lucrative and I'm not lacking money right now, so I don't draw for money. If someone made like 5k from selling my art I'd be pissed, but the likelihood of that happening is so slim that I can afford to be reckless and take responsibility for being reckless if it does get stolen

if someone wants to steal the art they'll do it even in lowest quality possible 
so i don't really care, it's internet. oh, and i have the originals with all the layers as a proof.

I'm not too concerned ig
I use a watermark on most art, but I don't nerf the quality or anything.

Same - I draw in a very high resolution bc I print bigger prints of my stuff, but I usually only upload a pic that's around 1000px wide and has a screen resolution of 72dpi. Usually hats enough that it still looks fine on a phone screen but hideous if one tried to print it
