Be honest, would you adopt two different pseudonyms for two different kinds of work?

If so, it should be edited to find your other persona.

If not, well… honesty is important for free art propagation.

I have ~20 different art accounts over the past two decades; Trunchbull is the only one active ones currently without adult works attached, and unfortunately one of the ones that actually got anywhere out of the furry world.

The only other problem is is that the alias was attached directly onto the animation itself, which meant I couldn't just change the username on it once it was rendered. Best way in the future is to just not sign lewd animations at all when posting. I'm sure most people may recognise the style enough to figure out the connection under the new alias?

I like artists like you. There is an easy solution.

Sign one name for SFW, one for NSFW.

Make sure that you isolate those two circles.

It is easy, else you risk being seen as full-time.

>>5691

If you want a good example of an artist separating his SFW and NSFW art, you don't have to look further than Mike Inel/Manyakis, where the fact that they're the same artist is basically an open secret.

Word.

A word on licenses:

Please keep your art CC-BY-SA if you want it to be absolutely free,

CC-BY-NC-SA if you want to profit off, but still allow remixing.

BY means your name will be referenced in the art at all times,

SA means that all remixes are subjected to the same rules.

ND-related license is just "Donut Steel"-tier insanity.

NC means only your perople can profit off of your stuff.

*people, not perople

Because of the nature of IPFS, you may be at the mercy of whatever search engine that happened to have come across this link. To keep it brief, IPFS is a protocol like http but that was designed around being decentralized and nondestructive. This means that, theoretically, as long as someone somewhere has this version of website (with your name) and is connected to the IPFS network then the site will still be retrievable (with your name) even if the original uploader changes it.

Of course, not all hope is lost. Because IPFS is a protocol it is essentially in the deep web if it were not for these gateways that allow http and IPFS to interact. In your case, the search engine happened to pick up the official gateway link that the creators of IPFS run themselves. If you head on over to the legal page of their website (https://ipfs.io/legal/) they have a form to report copyright infringement on the gateway. From my understanding, when a copyright complaint is complied with the IPFS gateway simply will not allow access to that file, but it cannot be deleted due to the decentralized aspect of IPFS. This means that people on the IPFS network can still retrieve the files and other gateways will still allow access to the files but the ipfs.io/ipfs/… gateway will not allow anyone to retrieve the files.

You could also try to get into contact with the IPFS team and try to persuade them that way, but I have no idea how receptive they would be to such a request.

It has nothing to do with copyright, since the artist wants the art to be public.

However it is an error on attribution. It will be best if you access the PTR and submit an edit for another alias or pseudonym.

The copyright not in >>5693 is just a notice. It has nothing to do with what OP is talking about, merely a suggestion.

>>5707

I know it is not an actual copyright dispute and the artist merely wants the art to be attributed under a different name. I’m saying that because the material is hosted on IPFS it is immutable. The link in OP will always point to the same data, and attempting to update it will just result in a new link. Google happened to find this link so as long as someone has this site it will always be available (think of it like bittorrent; as long as there is the entire file spread over all of the peers, you can download the file). I offered the DMCA link because it is the most direct way to get ipfs links off of the official gateway and, in turn, off the Google results page.
