Image posting rulesAppropriate ImagesIf you are posting on roleplays, you will need to follow these rules:- No personal photos-See privacy rules in General Chat
- No nudity, including suggestively covered breasts/crotch. The only leisure is that males can be shirtless.
- No images of people/anthros/furries in sexually suggestive poses or with clothes slipping down.
- No images focusing on breasts or crotch.

Character reference
- Only post one image of a character unless they are a shape shifter. Otherwise, describe clothing and hair styles.
- Don't make collages of images to get around the 1 image rule.
- Reference images should either be something you personally own the rights to, or something which is for fan use such as celebrity/movie images, famous models, or TV characters.
- You should never use someone's personal art/photography/characters/fursonas from websites like deviantart, tumblr, or related image sharing websites unless the artist/photographer said you could use it, or said that it was for anybody to use. (If the artist has no rules on using for using their art, try to ask them about it. If you get no response and you must use the image, GIVE CREDIT.)
