So is reblog is also not permitted?
That’s the difference. Reblogs are good! You promote the artist and their work.
At least for me repost is ok only in one condition: you asked permission and the artist said “yes”.
see also “credit belongs to the artist”. Stop that. Reblog the original posts from the original artists.
Signups for the Midam Bang are STILL open to artists!
On June 29th, artist signups close, and on June 30th, the claims gallery goes up for artists to claim fics ! If you want to participate, the time to join is now! We'd love to have more artists in the bang!
Artists are able to signup for a mini bang (where they'd need to create one artwork and one banner for the fic they claim) and a big bang (where they'd create two pieces of artwork for the fic they claim, as well as a banner for the fic). Further rules and schedule dates are below! We'd love to see you with us!

EDIT: This post is inclusive to ALL art forms.
Likes can only go so far for artists. Artists may exclusively upload their artwork to tumblr, or don’t have the time to use other sites and prefer tumblr over deviantART due to its simplicity, but the tagging system can make it harder to navigate. Many artists on tumblr tag with high-traffic tags or use their own tags to prevent tag clogging which eventually become lost. That’s why it’s very important to reblog an artist’s work.
I’m not trying to push you to ruin your blog’s aesthetic or something, nor am I saying that “you must absolutely reblog your favourite artist’s work or you’re trash”, all I’m saying is if you truly want to support your favourite artist, instead of just liking their posts, try to reblog them once in a while. The more reblogs they receive, the more exposure/notes/followers they may receive, and it’s just one of the easiest ways to show you care about them.
*This does not mean to reblog unsourced artwork or works reuploaded to another person’s blog without permission (re:stolen). Nor does this mean to reblog artworks without the artist’s consent, even if this case is slim.
I love you my readers, please continue supporting my works or any other artists’ works. It really does mean a lot to see you guys liking them or giving feedback
