@Crystal You forgot "and request for them".

I'm just going to copy and paste my third point from earlier.

3) The Definition of Fair Use  - Unless your individual portrait pieces are watermarked and asked for, anyone can take parts for portraits as they please; your work isn't under copyright, but rather Fair Use. Fair Use is when someone takes "excerpts of Copyright" may be quoted verbatim (unchanged) for the use of teaching, criticism, and research without the need to request payment form the Copyright owner. Any work posted by another member is under Fair Use as long as the following apply:

•The Meaning is Changed (the purpose and character of your use)

•No monotization is being gained

Even with these factors proving that Amino is using the Fanon Wiki under fair use, (no profit being gained and the uniqueness of each portrait changing the meaning) you still end up getting credited at the end of the day with Members usually linking the Fanon Wiki. Not to mention that, by linking the Wiki, and under "useful portrait stuff", all members of the Fanon wiki are credited there, so the issue of not being credited shouldn't even apply.
