Topic: Uploading a pixiv user's artwork here?

Posted under General

An artist on pixiv named じんの (Jin's) has mass deleted their content earlier this year, even cutting off their contacts.

Jin's is also the guy behind the Cyan_02 character.

I assume we can still upload some of his content here, or...?

There's only one post referring to Cyan_02, the uploader says the artist is afdszz1. Is it said artist?

I can't find him on the DNP list. If he's not, then it shouldn't be a problem (as far as I know).

However, I personally wouldn't repost images the original artist wanted taken down. And even if it's not against the rules, the artist might just make a takedown request.

if it was deleted from here then i would assume they dont want it here
try asking them for permission

There are no rules against uploading it. You may post them if you wish, but at the risk of losing respect from the artist and the possibility of them requesting a nuke here as well.

Only thing you should watch out for is to avoid posting any commercial content, existing or otherwise.
Even if an artist had deleted their shops/paywalls, the content that was sold is still considered to be DNP.

Jin's is the main artist behind Cyan 02. afdszz1 is one of the few artists who drew Cyan regularly. Jin's simply deleted all of their work on Pixiv without warning or any goodbyes of any kind. I will not upload anything until I have confirmed everything I need to know.

I don't think anyone has uploaded any of their work, simply put. I don't think Jin's will understand English, but I'll give it a shot when ready.

I archived most of his work on Pixiv at the time before he mass deleted. I don't think I have archived any of their commercial work, and I have no idea if any of his commercial content is still available or not. In either case, I'm not willing to archive them anyways in respect of that.
