Recolors are NOT original

*ahem* Today I'll be telling you about the things people call "recolors". #1: why do people like them so much? They're not original at all, no matter how much you say like "I MADE THIS CHARACTER, I WORKED SO HARD ON IT, I COLORED IT IN AND I GAVE IT A NAME AND STUFF SO IT'S ORIGINAL" haha little children...... No..... they're not original the least bit, honestly, recolors, made me not like sonic anymore, it made sonic [removed] and cheesey to me. #2: It's stealing other peoples art, taking someone's art, adding a bowtie, changing the skin and hair color doesn't mean that it's YOUR art, it means you STOLE it from someone else that worked hard on their picture. #3: Honestly, if you recolor and think that it's sooooo original and that it's sooooooo awesome and better than real art, look at Eliza1, wolfstep, goldenwolf, and wondereye, they work SO FRIKKIN' HARD ON THEIR ART AND GUESS WHAT GETS ON THE FRONT PAGE?!?!? YOUR STUPID RECOLORS! Write your response weather negative or positive, I want to hear your response.

Re: Recolors are NOT original

Quite true.  Though that doesn't seem to be the biggest problem right now, it is definitely a large factor.

I honestly don't think I overdid it  tongue  I spoke my mind, if little kids on this site rant about kaj and all that, then I have my right to rant about what I think.

Yeah  tongue  I think the lack of good art getting on the front page is more of a problem.

Yes... but um, recolors aren't something to be scared of and there isn't a problem with it on Scratch because of the cc license...
If you rant about something, it should at least be fixable. Trust me, I know.

Haha, I agree to a certain degree (did that just rhyme? XD) but it's not just scratch, it's dA, youtube, I just really spoke my mind pretty much, I got bored XD

Re: Recolors are NOT original

Recolors are an art form, and like it or not, they ARE in fact socially acceptable and some people DO do them and have fun making them and they are as much an artist as anybody else.
