That's right. There is a bill going to congress that will mean all art without a copyright could be taken. It will be considered "Orphaned work," and anyone who wants it can use it for whatever they want.

Againt that? Of course! Sign this. http://www.petitiononline.com/dAvsOW/petition.html

Now, take a breath. If you watermark your art (noticably) and sign it, then it won't be orphaned as easily. Make sure your signature is clear. You may now want to give your full name, so you can use your screen name at this site. Meaning you would sign like made by: Fiery_Nightmare at drawingnow.com

Yes, sign the petition and spread the word, but don't panic too much okay? We know that taking art that you did not make and then using it for anything is wrong unless you contact the artist and get their written permission. Make sure the world knows you are against it, spread the word so people stop thinking it is okay!
