ENGLISH: The upcoming US Copyright Orphan Works Act proposes that works not registered under commercial copyrights (including works made by commission artists) will belong to the first person to register them under copyright, which is not necessarily the original creator of the work (or works). This law unfairly favors the wealthy, who can afford to readily purchase these said copyrights. If you wish to support us against this law after reading this article, please sign this petition to the US Copyright Office.

SPANISH: La próxima ley estadounidense de la Oficina de Copyright, denominada como la "Orphan Works Act" propone que los trabajos no registrados bajo copyrights comerciales (incluidos los trabajos hechos por artistas de comisiones) pertenecerán a la primera persona en registrarlos bajo copyright, lo cual no implica que dicha persona sea necesariamente el creador original del trabajo (o trabajos). Esta ley favorece injustamente a la gente con dinero, los cuales pueden permitirse estos copyrights. Si quieres apoyarnos contra esta ley tras leer este artículo, por favor firma esta petición para la Oficina estadounidense de Copyright.

The Art Bond Signature campaignCreador de la peticiónThe Art Bond is a community dedicated to artists around the world who wish to share their art between each other, make new friends, learn and most importantly have fun! That is our main purpose, this is not about spreading art and gaining "fame"; that's what other websites do. This is The Art Bond: our name symbolizes the union that comprises everyone who follows the account: whether it's people who create art or people who enjoy watching other's work, both have something in common: that "art bond".
