This comic mixes my least fav thing together in one.

Uses continuity of BonBon being a secret agent.

Makes Lyra and BonBon married?  WHAT?! 

It's annoying.

Wolf... Can we be even better friends than before? You speak to me lol XD

But yeah, I can't stand those things. And also... Doesn't being a secret agent completely not work if your wife tells all her friends and you're openly talking about it in public?

Though one thing I can't deny.... This artists style is almost the most adorable I've seen. Like, oh my gosh, it's so cute.

I have to say though... Having worked with Rated Pony Star. He seems to have this obsession with funerals and death. I think I've sort of asked him about and never got an answer. I think I just mentioned that a lot of the works he was making me do had funerals in it and he was like "I didn't even notice! Sors!" Very odd. But he is an amazing guy.

I already saw this. And yeah, I also thought it was weird that her friends knew about it.

Butitssocute.

[Silverwing]

It is very cute, but yeah... convoluted.  Hate that head canon people have.

Wolf... I feel we could become good pals, but I never get to talk to you. 

[Grapefoot]

Wolf is a strange one.  He just appears.

Does anyone have any advice about when artwork gets publicly posted? Not so much posted in a "omg they stole it", I mean like... if it got posted around by people who wanted to share it.

My Zootopia comic for megacycle got posted on a Zootopia reddit and a Zootopia tumblr almost as soon as it went up.

The reddit one is a curious case because, I guess the best way to describe it is... sometimes you can never really tell if they're being nice or they're just looking for something to bash. I tend to relax when there's at least one nice comment about it, then I wouldn't care much what others think. But then there's moments where you just kinda doubt their kind words and you start to think they're just humoring you, lol.

Is it something I should just appreciate as it was nice enough to be shared by Zootopia fans, or should I try not to let it bother me that they're gonna look for things to bash or insult.

I just get tired of telling in or stepping in and being like, "It is what it is. I wish I could tell you more but that's all there is to it. Take it or leave it."

[Death Blossom]

Well, what you could do, is on your DA descriptions explicitly state in big and bold to not share it. I know it works somehow for some people. They say stuff like it takes views away from their posts or what not. They're like, link but don't share the image. As for the Reddit.... Don't know what you can do there. For tumblr you could try and ask the person who uploaded it there to take it down.

Again, put up big bold warnings saying you don't want your art shared. Not on Tumblr, not on Reddit, not on Twitter, not ANYWHERE, without your permission. Hopefully people will respect that.

[Darrin]

People will share it not matter what though.  That was an issue for Silverwing here, and you just kind of had to accept it.  People will like it, people will share it, despite what you say. 

Some will be negative about it, but thats art. 

[RainySunshine]

I don't have much advice.  It just kind of happens. 

[Ari-Dynamic]

Thanks for the advice, folks. :3 I needed it, and I definitely appreciate it.

Been a wild couple days. Kinda feels like I had mini-fame over note, so it all just kinda shocked me, haha. xD

[Silverwing]

It happens.  Someone took one of my stuff and made it explicit.  I didn't like it, contacted who I needed to and it was removed, but it just keeps popping up.  It's the internet, and sadly the internet does what it does.  You have to expect it if you post it. 

[Death Blossom]

Although yes Internet is internet you can try to disuade people from reposting. Some people repost because they like it so much and want to share it.

[Grapefoot]

There are some websites which block people from copying the image and even saving it.  Deviant Art is not one of them.  I know Flickr blocks people if you allow it to, but it is more of a photography website.
