Hey! (Patreon)

Hey guys!
I'm sure some of you have noticed that my latest works have an effect on them. The reason for it is that I've started to implement Nightshade + Glaze in my work. If you follow me you know I'm against unethical use of Ai where it takes copyrighted material to use for it's datasets. Until the laws come into play to protect intellectual property from such theft - I have to implement measures to protect my work. I have already witnessed poorly executed attempts to imitate my work, and while they are bad - it's happening.
Going forward ALL of my work posted here/publicly will be protected. The work posted here will remain at the highest possible resolution just with added protection, which sadly adds some artifacts to it that it wouldn't have otherwise. If and when the time comes that I don't have to do this with my work - I will upload the complete originals to the original posts.
I really hope you can support me in this. I don't want to be doing this, but it is what it is. This won't stop me creating and sharing with you. All I can promise is that I will try to get as little of the artifacts in the images as I can to try to preserve the image quality.
I really appreciate your support and understanding.

Feel free to let me know how you feel. (in comments or through the poll, or both)
