i uploaded a brush set but forgot to remove the brush tip i tried out while making it, so my upload got taken down lol. i've already removed the brush tip (since it was redundant anyways because my brush just uses the basic circle tip) and also set the new settings as the default, but now i'm overthinking every angle.

some questions i have:
1. ) Can i use a (super-cropped to the point you can only recognize the character if you're a superfan or saw the full image) fanart of a character as a brush demo photo or thumbnail, or would it fall under "uses copyrighted characters"?
2. ) Does making a brush based off of a downloaded brush I liked--but with various edits made to the settings--OR copying pen pressure curves from a downloaded brush i liked count as "based on an existing property" or "uses brushes or images for which another creator has the rights" ????

i just double-checked all the settings between the brush i initially started editing (via duplicating and adjusting and repeat). not only is my brush texture-less and tip-less there's also basically almost no resemblance except the vibe, but i *Worry* lol

i mean like yeah i could just keep them for private use, but i wanna upload them on assets + make backup files and keep them on a different cloud platform because i like them so much i want to essentially keep copies archived, and uploading on assets is the easiest way to make them available for me to get them back if ever i need to.
