This should go without saying but DO NOT use my edits for a chatbot cover!! A reader reached out to me via Instagram earlier today and sent me a screenshot showing that someone was using my Yunho vampire edit as a cover for a chatbot on an app called “Chai” my watermark was visible except for the L at the beginning, but THAT IS NOT OKAY!! It says very plainly in those chapters “Do not steal or repost my edits” and using them as a cover for a chatbot without my knowledge IS stealing and reposting!! I know people use fanarts and edits made by other their people for their chatbot covers all the time (usually without credit) and that is NOT okay! The least you can do is credit the person who made the image you’re using… If you want to use one of my edits for a chatbot cover ASK ME. And if I say yes then CREDIT ME in the character description and make sure the full watermark is visible on the photo. Smh… now if I make any more edits I’m gonna have to make the watermark really big and ugly and ruin the aesthetic because people don’t know common courtesy

@kalyn_kaz I assume it’s because it’s “less important” since it’s just a silly app where you can talk to fake chatbots for fun and not an app you’d use for something important like a school paper. Still… people should know better. The edit was watermarked because someone had uploaded my original/old Hongjoong and Seonghwa ones to Pinterest and I wanted to make sure if it happened again, people would know who made them—I did NOT do it so people could use them for chatbot covers…
