Hello members of Animation Source!
I revised it and just got to the point, I apologize for any prior confusion.
In your fanimage gallery, there should be at least 1 graphic. (example shown below) If you are planning to make an image gallery soon, then your first image must be the graphic.
Blank renders are still allowed. Renders are still allowed. Just remember that 20% of your gallery should be images/graphics of official site characters.
Also, if you send in a blank render/lineart a character icon should not be included.
Along with renders, wolf makers, horse makers, Dolldivine ect... are no longer allowed in any source. Studying the image rules it states "Pictures drawn by other artists aren't allowed." So we won't accept them anymore. This also applies to the character full body image, it cannot be made on dolldivine or any other wolf/horse/lion ect maker.
Starting in a week, moderators will start deactivating galleries that do not have at least 1 graphic within the gallery.
Examples of graphics:
Avatars-
/balto/en/view_fanimage/Moss_Balto_Icon/234.html&numart=13134&display=18
Banners-

Mini modding: The mods have agreed we have seen an increase in mini modding going on in alot of the sources. Please, if a moderator is handling the problem, allow them to. If a moderator is not around, report the problem, don't try to take it on yourself. Also, please, when reporting something add the comment "reported" so other know that it has already been reported. Along the same line, don't just bash the member. Actually give them real critique so they can use it in the future. Only pointing out the problem won't help them get better.

I'm thinking of making a forum post about all this as well, for those that don't come on the site much.

He doesn't often reply to general PMs much but whenever I've had a specific problem or thing to report he's always replied eventually.
If he's not been able to give any input on a new rule that's been suggested, or at least been able to say "Yay or nay" to actually making it an official rule, it's probably not the best idea to make it so.
Some proofreading wouldn't go amiss either, because I find this post pretty hard to follow coherently.
It seems to say renders are now banned, but not blank ones?
But also renders are allowed as long as you don't add official characters to it because the base was rendered from that character?
But they're also banned now?

UK--> We keep trying, but he never responds to any of our PMS.

I'm pretty sure mods are supposed to run any changes in rules by Steet first (or at least GreyWolf, even though she doesn't use the English side any more) so that there were no more problems with mods making up rules. Which was a problem some time ago.
It is his site after all, surely he should be at least consulted.
The mini modding comment is hilarious, having read through the comments and seen so much mini modding going on. :'D
Especially by people who's names begin with B or S. Which I find rather ironic.

Kash - It's not really a matter of what you like or don't like to do. It's a rule, so everyone has to follow it. No exceptions. Like Moss said "If you disagree we apologize but it will stay there." I think that applies to this situation as well.
Endless Night - Yes, renders with OC and canon characters are still allowed. The only thing that has changed is that 20% if your image gallery has to be graphics. As far as I am reading, the rules on renders haven't changed.

JC -- I suggest you be quiet before you get yourself in trouble. You and Mighty are not mods so stop acting like it. And threatening to contact Steet is immature and low, even for you. Then again, you've done it before.
Moss -- I believe I understand what all this means. And, in truth, I wish I could help. Just saying.

You turning into another former staff member over such as this? I am on no witch hunt. And I have no reason to contact steet...YET. But given that recent addition, you may be sure I am very, very close.
If you disagree we apologize but it will stay there. I am not going to argue about something like this.

This does not constitute mini-modding. And so long as they are not flaming a member or bullying them, a negative criticism does not equate with "bashing". Thought policing is not effective or justifiable moderating. You cannot adjudicate simple opinions, and you will run into increasing conflict and difficulty if you try.

For everyone else who is stressing about creating a graphic, here is a really simple I made on MS Paint. You can create something like this and it will be counted as your graphic.

Personally, I find that a much more suitable place for them than the fanimage galleries. -shrug-
