Rules + information!

Hello everyone! I firstly wanted to just say thank you for joining the group! I know adopt groups are by the plenty but it means a lot to me that you've all joined this one! I'm hoping it will continue to blossom in to a friendly and fun adoptable community! I welcome you all and hope you'l share the group with your friends and share your adopts with everyone!

I just wanted to touch up on the rules on the front page in a little more detail here, as a lot seem to be ignored or glossed over. Following rules makes my job easier, and though the group is small right now, accepting and giving out reasons for denying adopts is no small feat!
I know this is a little long, but I'd really appreciate if it was read!


No theft! This is common sense.
Don't trace, steal, repost and claim as your own, etc. This will result in an instant ban! This really does rely on the honor system, as I may not always be able to see it. I trust people NOT to do this! If you find someone in the group who you can prove is stealing work, please send the group a note with your proof!

Give credit! For your base work!
Adopts made on base are fine as long as you have the makers permission and you properly credit them in the description! Failure to do so will result in a decline of your submission! I do check these for the most part, but it is very taxing- I trust you again to keep to this! You should be doing this in the first place, should you be a frequent user of bases.

Bases and YCHs are welcome!
Feel free to post YCHs and bases and linearts for others to colour- just make sure they go in the appropriate folders! Both open and closed YCHs are welcome here!

Open or Closed In the title!
Please please please include 'Open' or 'Closed' in your deviation title! Submissions will be rejected without them! Closed adopts ARE welcome to be shared in the appropriate folder, but please make it clear! Having OPEN or CLOSED in your title not only makes the job of accepting easier for me, but it makes it much much easier for buyers as well! People are more likely to check out your adopt if they know it's open!

Dollmaker adopts are NOT allowed
Please no dollmaker adopts! If you have drawn something you made from a dollmaker, that is fine! But please don't just submit grabs off doll maker websites! Please be honest with this and don't submit if they are made on a doll maker- I do not know what every doll maker is out there, and may not recognize or catch them every time.

Don't be rude! Be friendly!
This is a community, so sharing and caring is best! Be polite! If you have any troubles with someone, please let me know!

Please Do not advertise!
This means in the comment section of the front page! This is discouraged and comments advertising will be hidden!

No Double Submissions!
Submitting the same OC/design twice on two different deviations/journals is not allowed. It takes up space in the folders that could be used for someone else's adopts. If you do this on accident please withdraw one of your submission requests.


And I just wanted to quickly touch on something regarding to folders. I don't mind if you submit to the featured folder! However, please keep it at a minimum, the featured folder is for everyone to share, and I feel as though it gets spammed because people are too lazy to submit properly. If you're unsure where to submit to, there IS an unsure folder, where I will accept it and organise the submission for you!
Also in regards to featured, please keep journals out of it! There is a folder for journals specifically, and I would like them to please stay there.

Thank you guys!
