Gallery Rules and Uploading to the Gallery

[RobM]

Gallery Rules

Rules Applying to Everyone:

• No photo's or 3D. No Gore or Vore.
• No Requests are allowed within any area of the gallery
• Characters must be around typical 'anime age' and bodytype for sex or sexuality. No explicit/sexual pictures of characters drawn under this age.
• We loathe censored art, especially patreon/paywall bait, it gives no benefit to this site. We won't stop you but reserve the right to insist you post uncensored works or remove them in the future.
• Text-only adverts or advertising of commissions is by Artist members only. It may not be done in communal gallery.
• Strictly NO REJUVE.
• If you want content that you uploaded removed, report the image (or contact a moderator/admin if there are a lot). An admin will remove the images within 24 hours (probably within 10).
• If you accidentally upload a duplicate, just change the title to "PLEASE DELETE" and a moderator/admin will delete it for you.

No Rape or violence against underaged characters.
- Limits arn't tight but they are there.
- This is not a site for extreme brutality.

Uploading:
Artists:

• Upload your new works to the Communal Gallery. That is the correct place.
• You will get a gallery once you have enough pictures of quality to meet Artist Status.
• If you are an artist and have a lot of work you wish uploaded on you behalf please contact "Akuma" who can sort this out for you (1000's of pictures can be uploaded to your personal user gallery with only a few mouse clicks) NOTE: you will be required to zip and email the pictures or transfer them by ftp (whichever is easier).
• AI generated images (e.x. Stable Diffusion) must go into the "AI Generated" galleries. Also tag your photos with "AIGen".

Referencing:
- The referencing/tracing of artwork is highly frowned upon - it's suggested that you do not reference or trace and works you upload as your own. If you really must, ensure that less than 10% of the artwork you have uploaded is referenced/traced and the original picture must be linked to!
- Any artwork that is reference/traced and does not link to the original will be removed. If the original picture is uploaded to this site by a resident artist you must have their permission to post the picture here.

Non-Artists

• Do not upload into communal!
• If there is not a suitable are in the gallery (eg you have a picture by xxx but they do not have a section there) please request that a new section is added instead of uploading to "unknown artist"
• Do not upload work by other members of the community - please ask them to upload it instead, this way it will go into their own user folder.
• Always check for Duplicates!
  
  Not Permitted to Post:
  Western Comics are out: Manga's ONLY.
  - The occasional image might slip by if it's nicely cropped and of interest.
  - Covers of SuperMan, SuperBoy, WonderWoman or Little Audrey are NOT coming in, there are thousands of other sites for that. - Pieces may be allowed to stay on indivicual cases, don't upload covers or comic pages though, it ain't coming in.
  - Do not post censored work as paywall or Patreon bait. We are not interested.
• Currently, Furries may only be posted by Resident Artists. This is under Revision.

Age:
There are no solid rules about content, it's all based on the judgement of mods and admins.
- As noted above, Characters must be 'Anime Age' (That common 'highschool' age of anime characters) or above to be drawn in a sexual manner.
- Characters with infant body-types and below may not be depicted sexually or explicitly.

Removal:
The most common reason images are removed is because they are duplicates!
- We all get most of our anime-spanking pics from the same sources, if one of your uploads is removed and no explaination is given it is going to be because it is a duplicate.

Notification:
- We will always try to tell you why images are removed with either a private message or visitors message.
- If no-one tells you why your picture was removed... its probably because its the same Duplicate we've removed a dozen times already.

Disciplinary Policy:
- Reposting images already removed once will result in a ban.
- Argueing with Moderators or Bickering with them, will likely result in you being banned.
Moderators and Admins word on content is final.

Image Description and Search Tags.

Write a description for EVERY picture you upload and Don't use Comma's in search Tags!

To those that havn't noticed, there is a search function inbuilt to the gallery for searching for similar pictures - that is to say: F/f or HAND or OTK, for example...

You should NOT be using comma's in search tags.
- If Comma's are ADDED to the search term rather than seperating them, so you just end up with ' OTK, ' instead of just ' OTK '. - Please do NOT add comma's.
- Remember there's a one word limit - short 'Sailor moon' to 'Sailormoon' and 'Full Metal Alchemist' to 'FMA'.

I just want to dump here the list of words I've been using so those people who like to be exact about these things.
- The search function is not sophisticated. But if you could please look at the terms I've been using, you'll see they boil down quite nicely:

Type:
- F/F F/M M/M M/F
- (Capitals don't matter)
- When the spanker is only half seen: X/M X/F
- When the spankee is alone: /M /F

Implement:
Hand Paddle Crop Machine Hairbrush Brush Whip Belt Tawse Strap Cane Ruler Flogger Carpetbeater Kendo

Positions:
OTK Standing Daiper Underarm Horse Bent (as in bent over something) Toes (As in touching) Fours (On hands and knees)

Don't use Comma's in search Tags!

Pairings and Situation:
Mother Daughter Father Son Siblings Friends Devil Angel Miko Maid Elf Samurai Fantasy Goth Roman Magic Santa Loli Shota Partners Husband Wife Boyfriend Girlfriend Teacher Pupil

Scene additions (think, extra fetishes):
Panties Pyjama's Nude Apron Glasses Teddy Uniform Desk Classrom

Scene Aspects:
Bondage Handprint Cuddle Cornertime (One Word!) Aftermath Watched (Other people watching) Outdoors Scolding Inspect Rubbing Wetting (of the bed or otherwise) Cons Sexual Restrained

Don't use Comma's in search Tags!

Words we DON'T need, don't write them:
- Spanking (I mean, duh).
- Spank (Same thing...).
- Bare (you and how many others? I prefer words that makes the images different, like spanking on the panties).
- <Yourusernamehere> Yeah, we know WHO you are - if you are in the picture, or your character/avatar is, then sure, include your username - but if it's a picture of sailor moon, you don't NEED your name, it's just conciet and clutter.
- Artists, don't keyword your own pics if they're in your own gallery please.

And rememer the one-word limit. 'Riding Crop' is irrelevant and can be done as just 'Crop'.

This is NOT a requirement of AotK - BUT - it will be very helpful if you think about them and add them to your pictures when uploading.
- Character name and series are REALLY helpful, as we get more and more pictures.

And...yes, I'm sure I've missed out several terms that you think I can't be so stupid to have ommited, but I'm trying to create a SHORT list rather than an exasustive one AND there is a one word limit.
- Standardised usually suggests, smaller and uniform.

Don't use Comma's in search Tags!

Why are 3D images not allowed. I was thinking of uploading a 3d thing.
By 3D,do you mean polygons or true 3d imagery?

[RobM]

Its the law in the UK, Australia and a few other countries. A 3D picture is a real picture - no questions or arguements permitted. So a 3D picture of a child is a real picture of a child and if there's anything sexualised (especially spanking!) happening in a 3D picture then you have child porn on your computer.
It doesn't matter that the child doesn't actually exist - its a real picture so its a real child being abused and you have a picture of it, therefore you are guilty. QED.

Thats the law and people have been prosecuted and jailed for it. Since more than one of the admins and owners of this site live in the UK we don't want to get put into the slammer.
No 3D!

Darn. Was planning to maybe come out of 'retirement' and here was my first stop (since several old friends are artists here too)... sorry to see my (rendered) artwork wouldn't be welcome here.

Hopefully there's still some nice folks to chat on occasion with, though, and at least I can comment on others' work. Part-unretirement is better than none, I guess!

What about the Edit Photo things where we use a current file to replace an old one? How long will it take 'til fully processed? Because in my view, it didn't usually work, but the description does... ^^;

It's instant and it has worked.
The problem is with your browser. Our (older) website software just replaces the image with a new one with the same name and (newer) browsers are so incredibly clever that they don't download a new copy.
Newer code on websites notifies browsers to redownload or just uses a new name. Ours doesn't sadly.

You're seeing the unreplaced image from your cache on your computer. It doesn't know to update it. Everyone who visits the site as new who didn't view the original will see your new one. But your browser doesn't know to check if its been replaced.

Try it on another browser or your phone and you'll see the edit photo worked.
