Tumblr users please link with love ♥
I thought I would do some reblogging today. I am already discouraged. In my feed the first 10 pages have some awesome photographs. NONE OF THEM CONTAIN THE SOURCE!!! Not even a via or found at source.
If you don’t list your sources you are stealing! Tumblr users like Inspiration Lane and Ana-Rosa for example post beautiful things but consistently do not list their sources!

Oh and Pinterest is almost never the source!

One last post regarding sources.
If you systematically do not provide sources for your posts I will not only stop following you but recommend others to do the same. If you choose to (systematically) reblog from people who don’t provide sources I will do the same.
The following is from LINKwithlove in their Pinterest Project. I think it is a good choice of words for tumblr users.
“Protect art, photography, design, words, music, film & ideas.
Delete ‘pins‘ posts not linked to original sources.
Never stop sharing just stop sharing incorrectly.”
