Hi everyone, I’m posting this out of the way because I really don’t want to be antagonistic or spam anyone’s dash.

I don’t usually credit the .gifs I post for a couple of reasons. The biggest one is time. Honestly, I barely have enough time in my life to keep the queue going. I really can’t be fishing around for the original maker for everything I post, especially when most of it comes from third parties. (To be honest, for most .gifs, I don’t quite get the concept of being credited at all; it’s not like we actually made the material. I feel like it’s more important to recognize the real original source.)

In any case, I’m not leaving out sources to get more traffic or anything stupid like that. My primary purpose here is just to create a useful archive where people (including me) can find images to post. I don’t want to be “Tumblr famous”; I like seeing followers and all, but only because I like to know that people are getting something out of the time I put into this. Heck, I have some of my own .gifs that I’ve made posted here, and I don’t even credit myself.

That said, when the source is obvious (such as watermarked in the corner of the .gif), I will try to be careful about crediting, for the sake of people who do care. I want to emphasize that I don’t want this to offend anyone; I’m not angry at people who want to be credited. These are just my opinions.

Thank you for reading this whole thing! I hope you all understand.
