Dear anonymous commenter...

6.01.2011

You wrote me a comment about my header image being copyrighted. I have been trying to find the artist to ask permission and/or give credit to but have had no luck. I have also had multiple bloggers interested in finding the artist as well and would love to pass on the name. If you are or know the artist I would appreciate the info instead of the threat. Why you would post the comment anonymously is beyond me when I am sensitive to all artists wishes involving their work. Id really appreciate it if you would share the info so I can speak with the artist myself.

    Have you tried using something like pinterest to keep track of where you find your photos? I know how easy it can be to just save things and forget where you got them, but it's super important you find a way to get that information on your blog posts. Imagine if someone was using your photos and not crediting you.

    I love your blog and everything you post, but I have to admit I do get frustrated to see that I never see credit back on anything you post. If you missed a couple here and there that would be one thing, but the norm is that you don't even attempt to keep track of where you found things, which is unfair to the people who's work you're using. Like I said, I love your blog and have definitely been guilty of not crediting back before when I sincerely lost track of something, but most of the time I choose not to post if I can't find the original source.

    Hope this makes sense you don't take it the wrong way! Just trying to be helpful!

“But it’s hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I’m seeing it all at once and it’s too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that’s about to burst. And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can’t feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life.” — American Beauty
