Thank you for this page!

I can't stand it when people say 'I trace because I can't draw.' Well that's just the same as saying 'I can't ride a bike so I have someone push me.'

Where's the fun without the effort?

Anyway, thank you for this page! c:

Hey, I made a trace, would you say that this trace [link] is okay?

Tracing is wrong, but isn't having a page over it a bit much? Not saying tracing is right or anything but making an account just to stop tracing goes a bit far.

I love you for having this page!!

Maybe some more posts about copyright infringement and official stuff could help others in their argument against tracers.

What is the big problem with tracing? I don't understand. I know people who do it quickly for class projects and what not because they don't have artist ability. Art is art, there is no right or wrong answer as to how to draw something, or how to trace something. If a person wants to trace let them. You don't have to look at the image or even comment on it.

Sure the image they traced should be linked or sourced, but sometimes people just forget or find the image on google and just save it to their computer.

So if tracing is bad, what about the people who do photorealism and alter the images the way they want? Is that still considered a way of tracing?

The way I see it, sure tracing can be good or bad, but there are so many methods out there like tracing, that I'm sure some of you who are against tracing do and don't even realize it.

So get over yourselves and don't bee such assholes about the people learning how to draw that need a little help.

Tracing in action:

Actually it is said tracing is good nor bad, its another technique

Take a look at a perfect example of tracing: [link]

lol at all the people flooding in defending tracing and taking credit for other's hard work.

I wish that deviantart wouldn't be so tolerant of tracers. Especially those who don't even cite their resources.
