Today is #PortfolioDay! Today also marks FIVE YEARS of #PortfolioDay! Thank you for making every #PortfolioDay one filled with art, passion, and camaraderie. To commemorate, we created an exclusive anniversary sticker available in our shop for ONE DAY ONLY! Get yours here!
If you are a creative looking for work, compose that post and send it out! If you’re a client looking to hire an artist, now’s your chance to discover new work! Even if you don’t fall into either of these categories, it is an excellent day to find new work to fall in love with and to support those whose work you’ve loved all along.
If having your images scraped for use in datasets without your consent is something that concerns you, here are a few additional recommendations before you upload:
Only upload web-sized images to the internet.
Watermark everything.
Consider cropping images that you share to social media and only displaying uncropped versions somewhere you control.
Keep your portfolio behind a password or paywall.
Use Glaze to make it more difficult for datasets to absorb your style.
Do what is right for your work! See you there out there!
