Hi dear,If they are actually your own drawings and that you can prove it just do it. Have you signed them ? Have you uploaded them on other sites ? If they are yours never hesitate to specify this detail in your description.Watermarked pictures are erased as some sites, like iclipart not to mention it, created some problems to Victor, the father of our favorite site. So to prevent any other problem with other sites which would not accept the use of their drawings except for strictly own usage in only 1 or 2 classes and a limited number of students we prefer the removal.
I have been using my own drawings in several of my ws and sign them with my name. It is true that I used my own name as an avatar. And now some members immediately recognize my style.
This site is tremendous. Of course there are other valuable sites. Each site has got rules to read carefully and of course each member has to respect these rules.
I am sure that if you can send on this post several of your drawings just to show that they are yours your ws will be restored. If Victor is secured about your actual source of drawings.
Try to pm him with several of your drawings, telling him if you upload them elsewhere. But if you use your drawings on this site do not watermark them or they will be removed for safety and security reasons.
Reflect twice before leaving. This site is worth while even if there are some "imperfection" or strict rules.
Never forget that some members are actual cheaters and Victor - and the moderators - want to preserve a real and true quality of friendly exchange.Being a moderator is not easy and our work to detect cheaters is not always evident. Specially if we are not given the good clues !
Hope these words will help you.
Maryse.
