I do not claim to own any of the source images used for this art. ASCII art is mostly done through tracing known copyrighted or otherwise licensed works, and the purpose of the art is to express these images in a unique format, for free. Until a landmark case establishes ASCII art as falling under Fair Use, I will not hesitate to remove any materials deemed infringing by the license owners or their representatives.
That said, much of the art you find here was all done by my hands over several years, and the art that wasn’t, I try to credit to the best of my ability. I don’t have qualms with people posting it elsewhere, and I recognize that it would be futile to try and control this (which is why I stopped signing my work a while ago). I only ask you credit the artist for their work by linking to this website so that my other stuff as well as other artists might be appreciated as well.
