Follow these steps precisely:

1. Go to the top navigation menu on the main page (or any page on this source), underneath the source banner, and click on the link marked "send to site";

2. Scroll down just a bit, and you will see a selection of clickable links (with icons). On the right-hand side, click the link marked "character" (with the image of Simba, from The Lion King, on it);

3. A page will come up which not only provides character creation rules, but recommendations as well. Read it and then, at the bottom, click on the ""Continue" button;

4. A blank character creation page will then come up for you to flesh out your character. Remember to follow the submission rules!

Here is a good guide to creating a character, by a long-standing and very knowledgeable member of Animation Source. It is a great resource for creating good characters (just scroll over and click the link below):

Also, PLEASE try not to create a character that ends up being used just once or twice for role-playing. Make the character interesting, engaging and original. One which other members will enjoy reading about. Use it in fan art or images, and maybe fan fictions too. Not just as a one-off (or two-off) role-play character, and certainly (and most especially) not for "mates" stuff, which most members don't find much interest in (and some find distracting and irritating).
