I wanted to say hello to all of you and say I'm sorry for all those notes and comments still not answered. I did not forget you and I will get to them eventually. Life's been crazy around here with not to much spared time. Plus most of my computer time have been invested in... again... copyright infringements.... :( Even today, I've been notified of some here, on DA. Let's just say that there has been enough lately to keep me busy! But I keep smiling and thinking of you my dear friend and good supporters.

I thank you so much for your patience and precious support!

Latest News from Jade Dragonne

Journal Entry: Wed Nov 7, 2012, 2:59 PM


:wave: Hello everyone! :wave:


I wanted to share the following informations with you.


1) I won't be around deviantART starting from today until the end of the next week.  Even if I'll miss our interactions, this will be for a good reason : Sunny beaches, here I am!



It's getting so cold around here that I've decided to take a little family vacation in the south so I can still feel the warm breeze and the sunray on my skin for one last time before the beginning of the way too cold winter we have here in Quebec!

Since I'll be on the beach and not in front of any computer, I won't be able to answer notes, questions and comments. But I'll make sure to catch up when I'll come back!

As for the Cutie Pie Wonderland related matters, =Dianabolique and *ErikRoger, my super amazings co-founders, will make the best they can, as usual, to ensure the follow-up on any comment or question. Please, be nice with them and don't hesitate to send them love, they work hard so we can have a welcoming and active group. I couldn't do it without them :)


2) It's voting time for the 2012 Cutie Pie Halloween coloring contest.
Please take a look at all the amazing entries and send a note to #CutiePieWonderland with your votes. More info here: [link]

3) I invite you to take a look at these amazing artists that surely deserve more views! :deviation:






Have a nice week !

Linearts

Journal Entry: Sat Oct 27, 2012, 11:09 AM
:wave:


Recently, I've posted a journal [link] about the many uncredited colorings of my linearts and numerous copyright infringements on my art. I said that I was torn between protecting my art and keep sharing it you all my amazing supporters. Many of you have shown a lot of support and a bit of disappointment with my decision.

Well, it look like I just can't let the bad guys ruin everything for everybody else. Being freely shared is part of my Cutie Pie trademark and I just cannot resist sharing my linearts with my colorist friends! This is just who I am. And I've decided that this won't change just because of a few stupid people...

Enjoy!

Jade :)

News from JadeDragonne

Journal Entry: Wed Oct 3, 2012, 4:39 PM


:wave:
Hello everybody!

Some of you may have noticed that lately, I've not been as active as usual. This is true for my artistic as well as my deviant contributions.

Life has been quite hectic in the last months, even if nothing bad or special has happen. It's mostly because works have been keeping me busy and busy and busy again…. And I don't expect a change in a near future.  With family and friends also wanting their share of my time, this has left me with only sparse tiny bits of time to draw and a major art block. It also put me in front of a dilemma: what to do with the little time I have. Do I spend it drawing so I can share new linearts and colored arts with you or do I spend this time answering those sweet nice notes and comments you generously send to me?

The many uncredited colorings of my linearts and numerous copyright infringements on my art made me sad and also left me with some questioning. They keep happening more and more often.  I'm now torn apart between continuing sharing my art freely so anyone can enjoy them and protecting my work with watermark to minimize its illegal use… I have also noticed that some people think that they owned the copyright on my art when they commissioned it, which, obviously, is not the case. Commissioning a drawing only mean that it will represent something special you wanted. But it gives you absolutely no right on the use or diffusion of this drawing. For example, it doesn't give you the right to sell it as a digital stamp. Please remember that I allow ABSOLUTELY NO COMMECIAL USE of my art. Please respect my hard work, give credits and follow my rules.

Anyway, as I said, all of this putted me in front of hard choices to make. After thinking probably way too much, I've decided to go with some heartbreaking compromises…

So for now on:

- I'll try to keep answering all comments and notes but not on a daily basis. So please don't worry, don't be sad and don't be mad if there is a delay between your comments and my answer. I will try to answer them at least once a week.

- I won't be submitting as much deviations as I used too. But I'll still try to submit a new drawing at least twice a month.

- I won't be taking commissioned work for now on, at least until further notice. Of course, I'll still do the 10 commissions that already are on my 2do list. But commissions will be completely closed after that.

- I'll still give special request linearts as prizes for #CutiePieWonderland coloring contests from time to time.  

- All my colored work will now include a watermak.

- Some of my new linearts might also bear a watermark, meaning that those will not be available for colorists.

-       All my linearts that already are available to colorists will stay that way.

:iconsosorryplz: I'm still not completely comfortable with some of these choices... Some of you are dear friends, some of you I even considered like my virtual family. All of you have been so amazing and supporting of my work. I love sharing the fun of art with you and see how beautiful my linearts look in your creative coloring hands. Your comments have allowed me to become a better artist day after day. So I must take this opportunity to thank you and thank you again for that. There are no words to describe how you make deviantART such a nice and happy place to be. I'll be missing our daily interactions.

:iconthankyoujump::iconthankyoujump1::iconthankyoujump2:

I sure hope you'll understand and still continue to encourage me in the many ways you already do.

Because you are the best! :iconyoureverywelcome:

One happy little girl and a sadder Dragonne

Journal Entry: Sat Apr 21, 2012, 11:44 AM
Yesterday, my daughter was looking at some Monster High related video on YouTube when she suddenly called me to go take a look at the video that was playing. The video, called "Monster High especial de Karla" [link], shows a cute little Mexican girl proudly showing all her Monster high related stuffs. You see that she's very happy about all of them. That's the cool part of the video…

The disturbing part is that at least a third of the two coloring books she shows to the camera is made of MY Monster High drawings, including the babies! I also recognized others linearts I've seen on DA. Of course, all linearts have lost their original signature. Sadly, she shows both books  to fast for us to notice the company behind them...  It's the second time, in the past months, that I've seen copyright infringements related to some of my drawings.  I cannot say how disappointed I am about it.

I love to share my art with you guys and see how beautiful you make them by coloring them. It has been important to me to keep them free so anyone can enjoy coloring them. But I don't like the idea of others making money on my back… I do feel a bit torn apart. All your nice comments and wonderful colorings you've made, and all the great friends I've made here on DA, makes me feel like I should continue sharing my art. So I will… Even if for now, I'm not smiling as much as usual…

Jade

PS: Like last time [link], I'll see what I can do about this copyright infringement, but I'm not too optimistic about it and I hate the idea to investing way too much energy in this…

In respond to my last journal entry, many of you have shown support with the "Coloriagesgratuits.com" [link] copyright infringement related to my Monster High linearts. First, I want to thank all of you for that support. It's was a real balm to my heart. Your comments encouraged me to write to the website hosting service, Twitter and Facebook. This worth the time invested

Facebook immediatly removed the link to the targetted linearts in the Coloriagesgratuit profil.

Twitter also immediatly removed the link to the targetted linearts in the Coloriagegratuit tweet.

And today, I've received this email from the hosting service:

"Hello,
We received your email and we acted accordingly on Monday.

We apologize for the error.

During Monday, 12th, we made ​​the required changes in your drawings.
Most of your drawings conserved their original signature. Only two of them don't have the signature Dufort 2011.
We had no intention of appropriating the authorship of the drawings.

As you ask for, we added the link "JadeDragonne.deviantart.com" to all your drawings.
So we have also replaced the note "Made by JAS for Pypus" by note "Edited by JAS for Pypus" because your drawings need some retouching to be painted online.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by our error.

Regards."

The modifications have been made on all monster high babies linearts found on the website and only four linearts were not rectified. I've notified them (with the links) and I expect the rectifications will also be made on those.

I think to decisive email was the one I adapted from the COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT LETTER that can be found in #Doombringers
I thank them for sharing their knowledge with us.


Have a wonderful week-end,
Jade :hug:
