Temp rules sticky.
Beware of errors.

This section is for products of YOUR creativity. Art, music, stories or poetry. If you want to showcase your works, or need critiques or feedback, this is the section for you.

General guidelines:

- All works must be your own.

- Discussions on musicians, authors and artists should go in the Popular Media Section.

- Please remember that the forum rules count here too. There are things like picture spam.

Art guidelines:

- Pictures should have the maximum width of 660 pixels. If the original is larger, please use a thumbnail and link to the large one.

- All references, brushes, renders, textures and generally everything you haven't made yourself, should have its source cited/credit the creator.


Writing guidelines:

- In case of a larger story, please post a link to it instead of posting it in the thread.


This goes for everything:

- Please remember to credit creators of characters you might use in your works.

- The works must follow the rules, and please keep it pg13. Explicit gore, death, sex scenes and swearing is not tolerated. If you must share it with the community, post a link instead, warning of the content, but generally keeping it clean is to be preferred.

- Critiques and feedback should be polite, and, if possible, offer suggestions on how the work could be bettered.

- The rules count here too. Please elaborate opinions to make them worth the space/read.

-Stolen works should be reported to a moderator. Do not comment on it, it is often less than worth it.

Forum displays up to 670 pixels width before a scrollbar appears.

Aside from that, which isn't really anything, yay for half-update. Go Cen~

Thanks for making this Cenny. I've noticed some people posting work of other people not their own. This should help.

Following Zoph: Go Cenny~~

It's sad how half of this stuff is common sense yet needs to be posted. Hm.

Following Vinster: Go Cenny.

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to link to an above pg13 thing. Might be considered linking to smut.

Does AG have any sort of standing policy on fan-fiction?

lol thoad, trust you to be the c-c-c-c-combo breaker!!!

I might have something to add here: we comply with US censorship laws, meaning no nipples (on female breasts, apparently), and no genitalia. Butt-cracks are discretionary. If in doubt, ask a moderator!

Places where we'd allow this would include linking it to a place that has a registration system so that declared minors cannot view it, for example DeviantART. Provided the picture was correctly tagged, minors who can see the picture after that probably lied about their age, and that's not our problem.

There's no problem with posting fan-fiction provided the author give credit where credit is due.

Shame DDX....Shame That's kinda surprising that no one's put up any fan fiction, I guess we're all original.

Or just so depressingly terrible that no one has a clue what to write.

Shame on both of you for mentioning spam and spam related things.

In order to not be a hypocrite: whatever happened to the "request help here" thread?

I'm a bit surprised too, to be honest. Then again this isn't exactly deviantART or a writer's group website. The only "fan-fiction" would be that based on some kind of ArmorGames metaphysic.

whatever happened to the "request help here" thread?


There's a link to a tutorial and requests thread in the original post, but I don't know if that's what you're referring to.

Cenere is as Italian as igloos.

How can you guys say there is no fanfic? How? Does video game fanfic not count?

It does! And I do believe we have some of that... Although not much. Fanart, on the other hand... *pats pokemon thread*

Uh, Gantic? I think he's been more active than Strop lately (the pony has had exams and stuff to keep him busy). Cenere is off on holiday, and I'm ... around, sometimes. I'm actually less in this section than I used to be...
