 I’m seeing this graphic making the rounds without attribution - many versions have the info at the bottom cut off. The creator is alienyrox2 on reddit (https://www.reddit.com/user/alienyrox2/). https://www.reddit.com/r/coolguides/comments/ic1g5o/colors_of_aurora_oc/ 28 comments
@morag It wasn’t that hard to track it down. Reverse image search on Google or TinEye!  @Rhodium103 @MichaelPorter yeah, I'm seeing that more now. Always on the verge of replying "well you infringed it anyway, intended or not! '  @MichaelPorter @morag Or just flat out trying to get clout for the work of others and don't want to be bothered with crediting the creators. A nice benefit of knowing the creator is that I was able to find a bunch of other cool stuff that they’ve made, also posted to Reddit (I know, I know…) @MichaelPorter You should always put your attribution in a place where it can't be cut off like this. Also, your graphic in my app didn't show the attribution unless I opened the graphic. Maybe you are seeing a bit of that as well. @human3500 But I figure if people are that interested, they will have opened up the image as opposed to just looking at the preview. @MichaelPorter My app displays what looks like the entire image - it crops it beautifully. @human3500 But, if I understand you correctly, the app *is* cutting parts of the image off for the preview? @MichaelPorter The app is making the exact crop of the full image as the cropped image when it appears in my feed. So my feed consists of identical looking images - I have to expand them to see if the image is complete or cropped. @human3500 Ha, fixed! Just so you don’t think I was talking about a girlfriend or such 😄 @MichaelPorter it could be a man... It is 2024 and it's still acceptable. For now. It will be a different story in 2028. @human3500 Hey, as long as they care about me and are good with all my flaws 😄   @MichaelPorter this was a shitty habit on twitter and i hate that this habit comes up on fedi now. @schaf I understand it, a bit - I think most of the time it’s a little bit of laziness, or the urge to post quickly. Not cool if someone is trying to pass work off as their own, though!  |

@MichaelPorter I hate the trend for adding "credit to original creator" or "dm for credit or removal". 🙄
