Alright, I gotz a question.
What do I do, or how do I go about officially copyrighting Tako-chan as a character of my creation? Do uploading it on these cites make it impossible to steal by law, or do I have to like Patened it or something (BTW I live in the Us). This question comes about and my friend brought up a good point.
“Like, all the things you do are copyrighted but that doesn’t stop someone from making a tako chan in a design you haven’t yet.”
So, how do I go about doing that?

even with a copyright, someone can steal your work….however, you CAN fight it with a copyright…well, at least you can for now, who knows after this stupid orphaned works thing goes into effect…okay so anyways, here is a site for free copyrighting, you can upload files, or whole blog/webpages of your work..i use it (but REMEMBER, you HAVE to keep the email they send back to you after you copyright your work bc THAT email is your timestamp to use in a court of law if someone rips you off) the website is www.myfreecopyright.com
i hope that helps hon!
