Rᴜʟᴇs*IMPORTANT!-Draw the character above you and provide a proper drawn reference for the next person to draw.
-You must have finished your previous art before posting again.
-Update your post with the completed art so that I can see you completed it.
-You have 7 days to complete. There are no excuses for late art. Do not accept art you are unable to finish on time; that is your responsibility.
-You must own the character you are asking for art for; no tryout art. Requesting gift art is fine.
-Respect the user above you and their requests.
-Don't accept art if you know you can't finish it to the best of your abilities. If you can't draw cats, don't agree to draw someone's cat.
-Art must be of reasonable quality, as determined by thread staff, in comparison to what you are capable of.
*[Preferences]-You may make small requests using words from below.
-Each row is considered a different 'tier' in quality, from lowest to highest. You cannot request art that is in higher quality (below) than that which you are giving.
-Tier types are independent and not interchangeable except for the up-tier cheats. This basically means that Digital does not equal Fullbody; only Fullbody equals Fullbody.
[Going Up a Tier]In the instance that someone requests something of low quality, and you want to request something of higher quality but can't because of what you're drawing for the previous person, any of these will allow you to go up a tier.
- shading - animation -
- You may also "add on" to the character's reference if you want (ex "Please draw them with a blue scarf instead of a red one")
- You may also request Pixel or Icon; this affects nothing
- You
may not request: Shading, Animated, couple art, etc. You may request/ask for it, but I will not enforce it, and the next person is not required to abide by it.
*[Size Rules] 9/28/2015
Headshots can be no smaller than 100x100px or 1x1"
Halfbodies can be no smaller than 200x200px
Fullbodies can be no smaller than 300x300px
That's all. Feel free to use the thread and have fun!
[Sub-Rules]Further elaboration, only read if you're confused.
-Unless otherwise noted, your art must be fully colored and complete (background optional). This just means no half-colored, half-finished scribble. They must all be made on unique lines.
-Must have clear usage of layers (no fill bucket tool)
-Traditional art is acceptable so long as the colors are still present in a BW scale (not just lineart).
-Traditional art must be photographed neatly and in quality. Scanning preferred, but if with a camera, center the camera perfectly above the image.
-FREE. No payment expected or asked for. What you get in return is art.
-Keep conversations in PM rather than commenting on here.
-You may only use other's lineart with their permission and with proper reference (tracing and/or editables)
-While claiming is fine, you must have the reference up within 15 minutes of your post. Other uses have the right to supersede your claim if you do not get the reference up in time (take the claim from you, basically skip you)
-Art must be recognizable as the user's character, involving both species and markings. This is up to the thread staff to judge.
[Straight to Ban]Not finishing your share of the art will go past a warning and straight to a temporary ban. The ban will last until you have finished your art; if someone else volunteers to finish it first, then you have the option to choose a someone from the Unfinished Claims section as a ban appeal (but it must be equal or higher quality than what you originally intended to do).
Art theft will go straight to a permanent ban.
The only other ways to be banned (whether temporarily or permanently) is if you consistently ignore warnings or are extremely rude.
[Random Rules Reminder]Every so often I or another staff member may comment with a Random Rules Reminder to make sure people see and know what they are. This most likely has nothing to do with recent posts and no one is in trouble.

[Notes on Karma][What is Karma?]The Karma system, implemented 8/15/2015, is a feature made to reward and encourage users to be involved and helpful around the thread.
[How does it Work?]-Users who draw free art for an Unfinished Claim receives the option to have something of theirs advertised at the top of the thread. This link must be CS-friendly and will be placed over their name.
-Those who have done art in the past before this feature was available are still applicable. Just PM Soulsplosion with the art/who it was for (confirmation will be required)
-Do more art to be placed at the beginning of the list (or anywhere else upon request). Ask Soulsplosion to see who has done the most.
[How do I get a Quoted Advertisement?]Some users are in quotes with small thumbnails and/or a small, written advertisement next to their name. This is for users who have completed 3+ pieces of quality art for those with unfinished claims. The quality of the art (lineart, use of pen pressure, fully colored/shaded) is up to staff to judge.
-You may have a maximum of 3 thumbnails & 1 small, written advertisement.
-Written advertisement can be no more than 2 lines (example: Check out ____'s quality art shop! Cheap prices!)
-You get 1 thumbnail and 1 written advertisement to start. 3+ art for each additional thumbnail and a maximum of 3.
-You may choose any thumbnail. It may be resized & slightly edited to fit.
[Other]-You may only change the link, thumbnails, or written advertisement with every piece of art completed.
-Basic thread rules still apply. Failure to follow them will result in no use of this feature.
-Abuse of this feature may result in being banned from this feature.
-The Karma system may change at any time. Examples would be the implementation of temporary advertisements or new features being added.
