Well, you know how entitlement whores on 4chan are always bawling SAUCE PLZ? Get this, crediting actually gives you the sources. How about that.
And iconists are always asking people to credit and comment on their icons, right? Don't come bleating to me that you don't, you know most of y'all do. So how can it be so hard to link to a resource post on your icon journal from your profile? And you don't even have to credit everything right away, I know it can be difficult to resist the pull of some HOMG AMAJING anonymous piece of art that you simply have to icon right away. Instead, just add a note that says you're willing to credit the original artists but can't find them at the moment, if anyone would please give the sources it would be highly appreciated, etc. And people who see this will provide you with the information needed to update your resources. I mean, it's a link, a click and snap and you're done.
And if the artists specifically ask people not to redistribute their works in any way, you should probably respect their wishes. Plenty of fish in the sea, just look at all the generous F!S fanartists who don't give a shit. If you ahead and use their art anyway, you're an asshole, and you should own up to that too.
