Topic: A few small questions abt uploading my own art!

So...i wanna upload my own art! I will upload the first image within the coming days but there are some smaller things I need to concern myself with...

Sometimes, i use google maps to get quick and easy backgrounds...I always make sure that these photos do not include other people, and i also make sure these photos do not reveal personal information on where I live

I was wondering if that is OK to use on E6? Or if i would have to make an edit without the google maps background...! I was also wondering if I have to tag the copyright as "Google Maps" for those images, or if there are any other tags I need to concern myself with!

Furthermore, how would I apply for a conditional DNP? I want to be the sole uploader of my art....I know it's ironic but i am a bit of a nervous artist when it comes to uploading my nsfw art...!

Thank you all for being patient with me! :D Hopefully i can make great contributions with my art

Applying for any type of dnp can be done through takedowns or messaging official off-site accounts: https://e621.net/static/avoid_posting#get_dnp
If it's going to be just you uploading, you may as well go for a full DNP (artists bypass their own dnp)

As for real backgrounds, there's no issue with them and no copyright tag is needed
Even if real humans were involved as long as they aren't doing something sexual and the art is otherwise relevant it would be fine

Ok, thank you! I will try my best to tag properly when i upload my artwork! ^^

There's a tag for it (photo_background )and from what I'm seeing it's common practice.
