TOOK FROM FURY! CREDITS TO FURY!!


Art Theft
We do not look kindly at art theft. That means absolutely no taking somone elses work and using it as your own. That means you can't use someone elses art for a contest or for one of your pictures. Remember to ask first! Do not use another person's work without permission first. And always remember to give credit where credit is due. And don't lie about it. "My cousins made it for me" isn't a good excuse. Either make it yourself or don't post it at all. Art theft isn't taken lightly, and it will get you a warning or even a ban.

Ask first
If you are planning to use someone else's work on one of your pictures or banners, ask first! We don't want any of this: "Hey, that's mine! You stole it from me!"

Give credit where credit is due
If you're using something that wasn't made by you, then give credit to the person after you read the rule above this. (ask first) And then you can use it, but remember to put (Credit goes to: or Pic was made by: , etc.)

"Don't be a hater"
Don't flame what you don't understand. In this case, it's art. Don't just say, "That sucks!" or "im looking at a picture that makes me wanna puke and die" It will count as flaming and will not be tolerated. If you have nothing helpful to say, then just keep your mouth shut.

Do not make requests if the Artist isn't taking any
If they're not taking requests, then they're not taking requests! Just wait until the artist is okay with it and then make a request.

If the thread is just for showing art, then do not request.
When someone's just showing off their work and not really wanting requests, then think first and decide it's not a good place to make a request. Just go look in another thread that's taking requests.

No threads requesting for something
Most of the art here is just for showing off, not for requests. Any threads found requesting for something will now be considered as SPAM.

"I reserve the right to refuse any requests"(just in case)
If you think you can't do a request, then go ahead and say that you aren't an expert on it. Not everyone is good at everything. And this rule mainly goes to the people who go out and make silly and unreasonable requests. And if that person continues to harass you about it, just pm me or Zed and we'll do something about it.

Put all your work in one thread
Like the trade forum, you must try and keep everything in one thread from now on. It will help prevent any further SPAM. The only exception to this rule is if your current thread is too old(1 week) or that someone has spammed too much in it and it is beyond repair. Then can you make a new thread, but try and stick with it!

"People need time to post!"
Remember, this isn't a chat room. People need time to think about things. Some you might not understand, so lets just give them all the time they need.

"False Accusations"
Try to be 99.9% sure when you're accusing someone of stealing. This won't be such a hard thing, since most of the work I've seen here is way too advanced for the average noob to even attempt to steal.

Pokemon are banned from this forum!
Yes, I've said it. Pokemon belong in the Pokemon Art Gallery. This is the Art Gallery. So anything non-pokemon related is accepted.

"Personal Art"
If the artist have said that they do not wish for the artwork to be redistributed in any way, then don't bother doing it. Just leave it alone.

Poetry is allowed
It is true, you can also put your poetry here, and only here. I'm not crazy, ok? And I'm sure some will love to read your poems, so don't be shy to post!

Same Gender Art
Art displaying two humans of the same gender which are embracing one another is allowed. Art displaying two humans of the same gender which are not dressed as a typical female or male is allowed. Art displaying these two humans of the same gender kissing, groping, and/or giving each other piggy back rides is not allowed.

If needed, more rules shall be added.

PM me if you think there are more that need to be added.
