Nodnod. Putting art on cups, cushions, t shirts is another culprit - especially when big firms do it.
Is blogging ok? I'm not sure. The context here is, images of divinity which might have specific meanings for their original artists being used by me in my writing to illustrate my gods - which might be a very different context.
There's a trend on tumblr of artists saying "don't tag as kin" under their pictures. In other words, if you're a wolfkin and you see the picture and think "this reminds me of my wolf spirit/persona", the artist isn't comfortable with that, or with you reblogging it and tagging it a way which seems to "claim" it.
It's a bit of an odd one, because you'd imagine most artists would kinda want that sense of people sent their art and thinking "yes! Me!".
But I feel like my situation could be a similar one.
