Also,above the link,or as the hyperlink itself, please title your drawing or explain it. Also state whether it’s mature or if it contains mature content.

Mixed Medium Rules
When posting in the mixed medium section of the Creative Drawings forum, please keep in mind that a mixed medium picture, on this forum, is considered when it uses two or more of the following examples: glitter, construction paper, pipe cleaners, colorful cotton balls, googly eyes, arts and crafts leaves and flowers, etc. You may also have combined them with the following: markers, crayons, colored pencils, paints, pastels, etc.

Art Contest Rules
Anyone may create their own art contest without a moderator’s permission and judge it themselves; however, if you are unsure how to make the rules or have the voting go, please Private Message myself or another moderator asking for critique of the rules you have, or their opinion of some possible rules you could add or do without. Just remember to be fair.
No mature contests allowed.
Art Critique Rules
Anyone may post their art in the art critique section of the Creative Drawings forum. Just remember that with critique you have to go in with an open mind and a strong heart. Sometimes it hurts to see what you did wrong, and some people are harsh with how they critique.
Also note that there is a difference between harsh critique and bashing or flaming someone for how they draw.
To critique, you must discuss what they have done poorly or incorrectly, but you must also discuss with them how to fix it, and what they have done well and why you think it is good. Be kind.
Anyone who bashes or flames art in the art critique section will receive a warning to their account, and their post(s) will be deleted. Any further bashing or flaming done in the art critique threads will result in a three day ban, followed subsequently – for any other art bashing – a week long then month long ban.
.:Language:.
All Sections
I see no reason for any vulgar or inappropriate language to be used in an art section, so please refrain from swearing or using any of the vulgarities on the forum that I have deemed “bad”. If I find anyone swearing too much a Private Message will be sent to the account warning them to stop, and the post(s) will be deleted. Persistence to keep swearing will result in a two day ban, followed by a week then month long ban – if the vulgarities continue in the Creative Drawings forums.
.:Pictures and Picture Links:.
All Sections
As stated in all of the above sections, your pictures must be linked to prevent lag or possible freezing on these pages of the forum. Anyone who is caught not linking their pictures will have a Private Message sent to them warning them to link their pictures. If the Private Message does not work, a warning will be given to the account and all of the posted images will be hyperlinked for the user. If this doesn’t work, the account will be banned for two days, and any unspoiled images will be hyperlinked.
If a link is clicked and shows a mature picture that wasn’t warned about that does belong to the user that posted it, the account will be given a warning.
If a link is clicked and shows a pornographic image or links to a pornographic site, the account will be warned and the post will be deleted.
Any repeat offenses will lead to a ban period of two days for the account in question. Any repeat offenses after the first ban will lead to a week-long ban, and then a month-long ban.
(NOTE: Accounts that are banned multiple times – five or more – will then receive a ban of three months. Upon return after the three months, if a reason for banning occurs again, the account will be IP banned and the username will be banned permanently.)
