Animation Source Forums

Only the type of creatures shown in the Balto / Lion King films are allowed. (On Balto Source : original characters such as dogs, wolves, foxes...are thus allowed; on Lion King Source, original lions characters are allowed)
Although, you must have AT LEAST one drawing of an official Balto / Lion King character in your gallery to be able to send other drawings!

These are not considered as Balto or Lion king drawings : anthros ('humanish' characters standing on two legs) , non-official characters, characters from other films.

It's forbidden :

- to send drawings with creatures that are not allowed. For example : horses, bears, humans (except the Balto ones), demons... Lions should go on The Lion King Source.

- to send "stolen" drawings from other artists (whether it is the exact same picture, or a "tracing" of a drawing from another person)

- to create multiple galleries (same person, several galleries)

- to create shared galleries. Only one person by gallery.

- to send pictures that are not in a valid format. Currently, the site supports the following formats : JPG, GIF, PNG. For other formats, you should convert them first. (see the help below for more info)

- to send pictures that have a resolution more than 2000 * 2000 pixels. (see the help below for more info)

- to send the same drawing repeatedly. As for requests, only the drawer can put the requested drawing in his gallery.

- to send real photos (even only in background)

- to send screenshots from the film

- to send modified pictures from either screenshots from the film, or drawings belonging to other artists

- to send collages of pictures from the film

- to ask the exact same request to several artists at the same time

- to repeatedly ask requests to the artists

- to use the original characters from another artist without asking first. (even if it's for only using the name)

- to send [b]violent, bloody, or sexual drawings. Remember that it's a site for everyone...

As for the drawings for which there is no specific rule (for example : drawings with both wolves and horses, drawings of wolves with wings...), they will be examinated case by case. So, send them anyway.

The rules for the animations (GIFs) are the same! So, do not send animated GIFs that use pictures from the films!

------------------------------
If you have problems with sending your drawings (for example, converting them to JPG format, reducing their resolution or size...), see this topic :
http://baltosource.timduru.org/board/ftopic378.html

Ooh so those are the rules, ill be sure to follow each and everyone. Thanks for posting them Steet!

I've made some changes to the rules, that makes them a bit less "hard". Be sure to read them again...

Well, considering that the rules that I previously proposed seems not to please many people, I have thought hardly about it during this week, and I have come to the conclusion that the new main rule will be :
"Only the type of creatures shown in the Balto films are allowed. (original characters such as dogs, wolves, foxes...are thus allowed)"

And there will be the possibility of exceptions for some things that are ambiguious (wolves with wings, for example).

There's no problem on the forums. You can post anything you want on the forums, these rules apply only on the site.

the first rules werent hard steet.Hmm,but if its easier on others,then ok

I agree on all the rules,and very strongly agree with rule#14,because they might be working on it,and if continuously asked they might say,oh forget it!

What about a character that is you but you are not a wolf, like me for exsample (Lynx)

Someone at the galleries has been sending the exact same request to many different artist just so you should know and im not exactly sure what to do about it. And that person has sent me the same request 2 times not because of a double post but because his/her request got dropped down by other comments

Well...You know what? You're a "comment mod", so you're allowed to delete these kind of messages, when such people only make comments to ask requests to everyone. This is a rule of the fan art galleries : "it's forbidden to
repeatedly ask requests to the artists "

Ok.... I probaly will get an answer like well I 'm not allowed to draw a lynx I sopose

Is it ok to send pictures of bears to?

If it's in a limited number (compared to the number of wolves/dogs drawings you have in your gallery), then yes.
Although I don't promise it will effectively be added on the site, because I'm not the one who updates the fan arts anymore (BlueStef)
