My Art Used on Other Sites
In these situations, I had no idea that my art was being used. I was not contacted by the site editors to inform me they were using my art.
On one or two sites, the person who uploaded my art edited the art itself to remove my name from the image, which bothers me a little bit, but they at least put my name in HTML below each piece.
It feels really, really strange hunting around the internet to find photo reference material to draw, or to find other people's art to collect, but to come across my own artwork on someone's site, when I was never told they would be using my art.
Here are some examples of my art used on other sites (I also have screen captures in my deviantArt "scrapbook," with thumbnails to these below):
Someone uploaded my Lily Munster drawing on Comic Vine site
Someone uploaded some of my Marilyn Monroe artwork on Naldz Graphics site
Someone uploaded some of my Marilyn Monroe artwork on Creatives Magnet site
Someone uploaded my Marilyn Monroe pencil drawing of Marilyn Monroe as Kay Weston on Fan Pop site
For about the past year (over 2013, and into 2014) someone is using one of my Marilyn Monroe artworks as her Pinterest profile photo, which you can view here: Pinterest site

Back in College -and dA's Horrible New Site Design
So, it's November 1, 2019.
I logged into my eyeqandy DeviantArt account last night to vote on any art in groups where I am an admin. I was quite surprised to discover that the entire site has undergone a transformation.
I believe that DeviantArt is calling this new design "Eclipse." Well, I hate it.
Most of its features are un-usable - I click on symbols, links, and things, but nothing happens. At first, I assumed it was because I was on my usual (very old) computer that has an ancient OS (Operating System), but no, that's not it.
Today, I am borrowing a newer (lap top) with a newer OS, and four fifths of the features on deviant Art's "Ec
My Deviant Art Friend, Lemgras330, Has Passed Away
August 2019
I was friends with Cher Nicole ("lemgras330") on deviantArt for a few years.
We mainly sent private notes back and forth via DA's messaging system.
I noticed she hadn't contacted me in a long time.
I tried sending her a note today, and after doing that, I checked out her dA home page, where I saw all sorts of condolence notes.
Come to find out, Cher had cancer. She passed away, I believe in July of 2019th.
You can read Yuukon's deviantArt journal entry about Cher's passing here:
In Memoriam: lemgras330
I am saddened to learn of Cher's passing. She was a very considerate, thoughtful person who loved giving words of encourag
My Art Used By El Rey Network
American cable television network El Rey used some of my artwork to promote their Superman movie weekend (Sept 3, 2016) in a commercial that was uploaded to their Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter accounts recently.
You can view that art and the commercials here:

My Computer is Broken - My Art on TV Show
Hello everyone.
As of this morning, my computer stopped working. I don't know why. It was working fine last night.
I have no other way of getting online. I am borrowing someone else's computer to post this message. This is not a computer I can use regularly.
I have no idea if my computer can be fixed at all, or if I can get a new one, or when.
I have no idea how long I will not be able to get on the internet consistently.
This means, so long as I am without a computer, any art sent to groups I moderate will expire.
My art was used by an American cable TV station called "El Rey" to promote their Superman movie weekend (of Sept 3, 2016).

That's awful! Especially when they pretend they made the art, wrote the piece or took the picture.
I've seen some of mine out there but at least they said it was my art.
Still not sure how I feel about it being somewhere I didn't put it, but I guess that's the nature of the internet... once it's out there... it CAN be taken!
