I have a picture suggestion that is slightly unusual... probably because most people don't find self-spanking a very interesting thing, visually. But I think it could well have its own charm and appeal.

The only existing self-spanking picture I know, personally, is by Sassy Bottoms.

If any artist would like to see their self-spanking themed artwork on the front page of the Spanking Art Wiki for a month, that could be arranged. I'm planning to feature the article on self-spanking (http://spankingartwiki.animeotk.com/wiki/Self-spanking) as soon as we have a nice picture to illustrate what we're talking about. I'd personally prefer a nice drawing (any style or character, that shows someone spanking their own butt, preferrably with an implement) to that somewhat exhibitionistic photo of Mr Hale-Hoffman.

This is a picture suggestion for artists who are looking for a new, unusual idea. It is not a request.

Well if more than 10% of the artists would to tag their images you could find many nice pictures as says RobM's guide here: https://animeotk.com/forum/showthread...lery-1057.html

Yes it's 'selfspanking' and 'self-spanking' or 'sailormoon',
NOT 'self spanking' and NOT 'sailor moon'

The current searches produce some results even I know there are dozens more of them.

Thank you, both of you.

That tagging is a good thing. Now I wish I could search images by license too. Does *anyone* put their artwork under any license here on animeotk at all?

Several artists have stated in the past they don't want their work posted on paysites. To the best of my knowledge though, no one has issued a flat DO NOT REPOST-typelicense. If they have, well, it should either be on the picture itself or in their profile. If not...

Well, legally you're probably covered if you want to use it. But since I assumed you were planning to grab one from one the of the Resident Artists, why not just ask permission? Just make sure it is one of the resident artists. :P

Yes, I can always contact artists and ask for permission. But I (or anyone) is certainly NOT legally covered if they use an image without the artist's explicit permission. By default, every creative work is protected 100% by copyright law. No-one can legally copy or repost or modify any copyrighted work.

Therefore, from a legal point of view, a "do not repost" line is just a reminder but is certainly never required, as that is the legal default. We have a very protective copyright law. What is required is an explicit license, issued by the copyright holder, which overrides that default protection if the artist wishes to allow others to do things with their work. It's easy to do such a licensensing: just type a line such as "This image is published under the CC-BY-NC-ND license" or "Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this image under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike 3.0 License CC-BY-SA".

In short: any artwork that doesn't come with any license information must be assumed to be fully copyright protected, unless the artist is dead for more than 70 years.

Welp. I guess now you know why I'm a biology major instead of law. :P
