Not sourcing is a big problem on tumblr outside of fandom, too. I see photographers (who'd like credit for the same reasons as fanartsists would and might be missing out on legitimate commercial work) whose work is reposted without credit all the time. Landscape blogs are some of the worst culprits. They'll find a photo on flickr and only put credit in the caption. The source and the clickthrough are their own blog URLs. Inevitably, some jerk will delete the caption for whatever reason and credit is lost. That is, of course, assuming that the landscape blog bothers to give proper credit in the first place.

I don't know if it's just the demographic of tumblr or that it attracts a lot of people who just don't care or are too lazy to cite the sources properly, but it drives me crazy.

I find it so funny when artists make a huge deal about citing sources, but have loads of unsourced photos on their inspiration blogs.

Yeah. People don't view it as the same thing, which is weird to me and I'm neither an artist nor a photographer. I do know, however, that there are lots of photographers on tumblr trying to make a living at it and it's a deep source of frustration when they see their photos with thousands of notes and no credit.

DA. I'm an illustrator and to me it's absolutely the same thing. I actually get frustrated when other artists treat photographers that way and what's funny is every art training worth it's salt will tell you NOT to.

Like I knew a fine artist who ripped off my photographer friend and we were all pretty outraged. It's fine to use photography for reference and it's fine to use art for reference but ripping it off completely is a big no-no.
