Hey guys, i was looking through some of the folders recently to help my boyfriend get inspiration for a project he's working on, and i noticed that a lot of people are obviously not reading the rules for submitting, so i decided to post the rules for you guys to know.
- You may submit 5 pictures a day
A lot of groups don't usually accept this many pictures a day, so please take advantage of this. Do try to limit your submitting though, it takes a long time to accept/decline pictures.
- Do not submit the same deviation
Do not submit the same picture twice. If it was declined once, it will be declined again. Also, if you do a photoshoot of a certain thing, do not submit pictures that are very similar to each other. For example, if you take a picture of an apple, do not submit another picture of that same apple only from a different angle. It will be declined.
- Make sure it's the right category!
If your picture is submitted to the wrong folder, it will be declined. It doesn't seem like it, but it actually takes a long time to decline/accept pictures, so adding the time of moving pictures is too much trouble for admins.
- The Feature folder is a no-no
We do not accept pictures to the feature folder. We may in later contests, but please don't assume your picture is good enough to be in the feature folder. It will be declined no matter how good the picture is.
Nudity or overly-sexual pictures will be declined. Sorry, but pornography is not art. DeviantArt has younger users, and this group does not want their first exposure to a nude woman/man to be from this group. If you submit something showing women's nipple/vagina or male penis, it will be declined. Repeat offenders will be removed from the group.
Please leave a comment if you are confused with any of these rules (:
