Aʀᴛ Issᴜᴇs Alright, this has been going on long enough, I'm not going to call out anyone, but we need this to stop. Here's what I mean: -Stealing art and claiming it as your own -Heavily referencing -Tracing -Changing one little thing about the piece and saying just because it's different, it's yours (Like the eye color of a person or changing the color of the outline) -Coloring in transparent pictures without giving credit to the artist --Coloring in transparent pictures and claiming you drew it Yep. Sadly, a LOT of people on scratch do this. And I understand it's mostly just kids, but even after explaining to them why they shouldn't do it, they still do. And they aren't all just kids, there are adult art thefts out there too. I once met someone who was 14 and stole art. Look, I understand you might not think your art is good, but copying someone else's will only make it worse. It will drive you further and further away from actually improving and finding your style and/or talent. 2.

Within this month, I have met 5 different homophobic people. As someone who highly supports LGBTQIA+ and is in the community along with creates LGBTQIAPP+ projects on scratch, I simply hate it. I know you might say, 'It's because of my religion,' but that isn't true. Yes, you might have been raised that way, but that won't stop you from being who you are. My parents are homophobic and taught me to be against LGBTQIAPP+ as well. Am I? No. Well, this description is getting long now, so I'll end it here. Some ways to help spread awareness: 1. Remixing 2. Adding to studios 3. Liking and/or favoriting
