Hello and welcome to the art subforum! I'm your leader (to an extent) and I will be directing you through the importance importants of this place.

There are many rules about this lovely subbie, but they shouldn't bee be too difficult to follow.

1. Please be nice. So someone might suck at being realistic. That's either the case of they are inable to draw so accurately, or they purposefully drew it that way. Critique, but use a padded baseball bat.
2. Limited swearing. What reason would you have for swearing in here anyway? It's just art. No Ns, Fs, Cs, or Bs. If you don't know which swear words I mean, just guess and steer clear of any of them that start with that.
3. The art here is limited to visual art and linguistic art. That means that These things are allowed:
paintings
drawings
sketches
photographs
pictures of pottery or sculpture
poems
short stories
stories
videos

And these things aren't allowed:

dancing (sorry to be so liberal literal)
pornography
nude art
(i will speak with Rkk on this. there are a few instances when nude art is very beautiful, as it's an expression of the body. but it's sometimes difficult to see the line between the two. for now, none of it is allowed. if it ever is allowed, it will be minimal and very restrictive)
4. You may create a post whenever you like! If you have some kind of art that you just need to share, don't wait to OK it through me. Heck, I'm just here to make sure you guys don't go kill yourselves with this art stuff.
Mor may possibly be added at a later point...

You may have noticed, you may not have, but throughout the course of me telling you the rules and such, there have been mini many misspellings that I have gone back and corrected as sash such.
I'm normally quite uptight about spelling and grammar, though I swear that I won't call you guys on it (I might some day if it causes real trouble). I try to refrain from txt talk and 1337 speak, but occasionally, I slip and am gettings into mine own little of the languagings. Over all, I try my best to spell things right and have exceptional grammar.
Here's the skinny: I'm offering gold for anyone and everyone that spots a mistake in a post.
Not just any post, only my posts. I don't want people to go around saying "oh, blah de blah spelled this wrong" or "such and such is so crappy at life". No, the gold only applies to mistakes that I make.
What you should do if you spot a mistake is quote the section it's in, then change the misspelled or wrong word so that it's crossed out like this.

Holy canole, I really like bumber stalkers stickers.

(Now, I will try to make it as obvious as possible, but there's no guarantees.)
Put that quote into a PM to me and title it "You are incorrect."
For every mistake by me, taken by you, given back to me, I'll give 100 gold!
But do it quick, because as soon as I know someone has seen it, I'll change it in the original posting, just as you see in the example up there.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES POST THE ERROR HERE! I want people to find it on their own.
Enjoy your gold, and watch my words carefully.

Another general rule about this 'contest' of sorts: the gold is only winnable if the mistake is found in this subforum. I'm not going to break my neck trying to spell everything right everywhere!
