RE: Dream Runner by Anonymummy_Fifty Word Challenge
@jayna @rondak @jmuxx as per creative copy right laws this “image” is a collage I created from looking for specific images on the web and in specific movies two were screen captures during the running of the movies one from the search mentioned all three were altered in paint and collages together cropped into a box and had the filter changed as a single image to give the required effect that best fits my poem which makes this image my own! Check it for yourselves that makes this picture mine! I know because I studied this law during my study of it and digital gaming! It is a single created image that makes it mine and your lucky I don’t flag you @jmuxx for false flagging. As per the grammar and spelling some I fixed others I left so they were said that way as it helps express the climate in the poem and the running dramatic effect! As to splitting it into 3 50’s I could never then it wouldn’t be a complete poem the temperature of the poem wouldn’t be portrayed and fifty words is said to be the minimum making it exactly fifty would have turned it into one of the emotionless pieces I saw and was forced to like as the qualifying post specifies to like other contestants posts to qualify! I would rather unfollow all and never enter a stupid challenge like this again for the lack of upvotes I received and the negative destructive criticism accusations and flag trolling I have received here for being the first and only person with a meaning ful post in this stupid challenge it’s seems the only person who understands the point of poetry or creative writing is @jennifer78 and she will be the one I’ll be following from now on! Rediculous to be flagged and hidden as an unpopular post by a close not group of jealous untalented trolls
The poem is good, but it seems there are two separate things regarding this:
The poem can be good but not quality in the 50-word challenge, but it can work as a post of it's own without the specific challenge or contest :)
The image thing is separate and on Steemit quite many users are strict with copyrights and it's usually safest to use own photos/drawings etc. or CC0 "free for commercial use" images, as we are earning money with the posts.
You can find such images on Pixabay.com and similar services :)
Can’t find my painting I’m going to have to alter the source claim
Now that you put it that way that we are making money off of posts it does seem wrong I was only looking at it in the Creative Commons liscence not as a marketing issue , Fuck
I’m going to have to editi both posts! Don’t worry I have a painting I did years ago I’m still trying to find that says it all
Firstly, my username is @gmuxx - thanks.
Secondly, you specifically said 'photo by me'. No. Collage by you from copyrighted scenes from movies. If you had studied copyright law, then you would surely know this.
I run a writers community of some 850 members, and we take a hard stand towards copyright material, and we act responsibly not just for our own members but all intellectual property. I would suggest that you stop complaining and comply by actual copyright laws and change your ways. An altered image of somebody else's work does not make it your own.
