Channel Frederator RAW

I know this is the free country of fred, but whats with all the pokemon?!

Obviously, everyone has the right to post whatever they want on channel frederator (within reason i guess), but the 'Artwork' section is being totally flooded with pictures of the same pokemon character. I have nothing against pokemon, or the person/persons posting them, but its getting beyond a joke, i'd like to think i wasn't the only person finding this a bit annoying?
I love the fact that fred creates a great creative hub- it's nice to see other artists work and give and receive feedback, i just feel this is being a bit spoiled by the over posting of materials that are not original artworks, and are instead just pasted in off a google search?!

What do you think?

I'm with you on this one. I love looking at all the talented RAW member artwork, but holy crap with the Pokemon already. It's cool to post 'em if you've done the fanart, but they're mostly just screencaps. File me in under the annoyed category. Again, nothing against the people posting them, but enough is enough already.

Thanks Geoff! indeed its cool to upload fanart, and even if it were the occasional screen cap, but this is different, this is over a hundred screen caps!

I'm more weary than annoyed. Maybe a little mystified...

I do feel a bit bad, seeing as this guy's only 15 yrs old and we're supposedly... achem!...mature! But I have to agree. Some quality original art is being burried under a sea of screen grabs, meaning we have to trawl through pages of the stuff to see what other people have uploaded. Maybe this stuff would be better suited to MySpace or Facebook. Of course if Baron wants to upolad his original stuff then I'm all up for that.

perhaps, if frederator were to put an advisory message next to the upload artwork page, saying, 'only original works please', or something? But i agree chris, this is not to target one individual not in any way- nor did i realise he was only 15 :-s

I think the solution would be for frederator staff to add some guidelines as to what to upload, as this content does seem to be more tailored to a myspace/facebook kinda site.

Perhaps the site admin would like to comment?

Has anyone personally asked this kid to stop?

well, i had thought of asking him, but i didn't want to come across a bully, personally taking issue with him- i didn't want that at all- thats why i had tried to keep him anonymous in this discussion.

what i really want to happen is a site admin person to take notice of these posts- as i don't think its really his fault- there are no guidelines on what to post.

Damn. Sorry Jeaux, I just left a Diplomatically worded (well, for a Canadian) comment on his member page. If it's out of line, just vape it. Man, this kid has some kind of otter fetish, er sumpin. Cute character, tho.

Thanks man! I've been finding the pokemon annoying to. And only because its soo much and it's not original artwork.
