Notes Tumblr Pet Peeve #1When people link all of their posts back to their own blog without giving the source they got it from any credit.
I just came across a blog (I’m not naming any names here) that I instantly liked whose page was topped with something along the lines of, “I really love photography”. I noticed that every single image linked back to the main page of the blog, however, and fell out of love with it just as quickly. Not giving someone the proper credit for something they’ve created or captured, whether it’s a photograph, illustration, piece of writing, etc., is like stealing. It’s lame to remove credit and make it difficult for people to find the original source so that you can get more notes, anyway. If you really love anything that you post you’d give the source credit.

Yes, but putting the correct source is also good. I notice that you cite “fffound”, but that’s like citing weheartit. I recommend google image searching it, it usually finds a better site to link to thank fffound/weheartit.

i read someone’s blog who said they don’t give credit because it’s too much work. they used the excuse “if you wanted credit, you shouldn’t have put it on the internet.” i was like, what kind of bullshit is that?!?
