Thinking about coloring this...hmmmmmmm

reminder to people about tagging etiquette. if it is not TAGGED or MENTIONED that it is a ship post by the original poster then do NOT tag it as such.

No matter what the characters are doing in the post if it is explicitly not meant to be ship art or not stated to be ship art, tagging it as such is rude

"but they're hugging/kissing/holding hands!" don't care, none of that is inherently romantic

"but i ship them platonically" don't care, you still don't have to tag it as ship. And, like it or not, the word "ship" has romantic implications, even if you do not mean it as such.

This isn't even a petty thing. OFTEN does mistagging something as ship discourage artists. they start trying to play it safe, make it impossible to appear as ship art, and most of the time that doesn't even work and it limits them!

It's Aro-Spec Awareness Week again my friends, and that means it's time for more silly little critters! (You can find last year's here.) ✨Keep up the amazing work, fellow aros✨

So apparently some people new to Tumblr think a repost and a reblog are the same thing, so when they see creators asking for people to not repost, they're thinking the creators are saying to not reblog 😭

Y'all, a repost is when you copy/download the work and create a new post using the work making it seem as if it's yours. A reblog is you using a site provided feature to share the creator's post directly from the creator so that it's still credited to them and they still get all of the traction/notes from the work.

Please, reblog fics/art/etc. that you enjoy! Reblogging is not reposting! Creatives need support too, and reblogging is a way to do that!
