That's right up there with the Legend of Korra fandom getting in a twist about whitewashing because of someone's art of Korra bending fire showed her as "white" when in reality is was the light source from the fire that made her skin look brighter. Thanks to SJW's failure to grasp basic art knowledge they thought it was a good enough reason to hound the artist into redoing the pic to make her darker, then continue to harass the artist and send them death threats.

They ALSO don't take into consideration that each computer screen has a different brightness/contrast output. So on the artist's computer, she could be the brown she's supposed to be, but on another, she's lighter and then that artist gets hounded.
There's A LOT of things to take into consideration, especially if the artist is expressing a lot of confusion over perceived "white washing" when they had her drawn/colored right. Or, in the case of the unfortunate artist mentioned, LIGHT SOURCE.
*sigh*
It's damn good to be aware, people, but there's a line and you've crossed it. (general you)

WOAH
And looking at the rest of her art, it's pretty clear that whitewashing is not what is occurring there.
