PLBC/PMBC Rules and Changes

Items



1st:

Please be sure to look at the new artists on the PMBC article and PLBC article.

Some artists have left (noticeably Vulture and Youko) so please replace them in your Painted Pen within the next 48 hours (unless your breeding is already assigned).


2nd:

There have been rules established for requesting fixes to PLBC and PMBC offspring. The outline of the rules has been placed on each of the articles. Fixes fall into three categories: some fixes are guaranteed upon request, some are conditional on whether admin agree with your claim, and some are dependent entirely on whether the artist wishes to make the fix.

Note that you are always welcome to tweak your babies and submit them for overlay if you please, as long as they are not completely revamped.


3rd:



From this point forward, Painted Golds will yield an additional $2.50 artist pay per offspring in the breeding. This means that rare offspring will be paid higher, and if you want, you can attach a Painted Gold to a regular breeding to tip your artist.


4th:

Please observe the new "prompt limits" listed on the PMBC and PLBC's reference page:

Limit your "Theme" description to a maximum of ten words and a maximum of one reference picture. This is not a commission, so please do not be overly descriptive. If the artist wants more detail from you, the artist is free to contact you directly to request more. Themes that are overly detailed or that violate this rule will be refunded.


That is all for changes. Any questions, feel free to ask!

I don't like the one picture limit (I like giving albums so there's a bit of variety for the artist to pull inspiration from) but the rest is nice. - Azi

For overlaying said pet for tweaks, would one be using the Dawn Crystal? Or is Deja way off?

Ohhh man I'm not even on those teams and I'm so happy to see this. When people are QUITTING because people are being abusive and treating them like commissions, you have a very real problem. Thank you for standing up for your artists, I don't think most sites would risk losing the money (not that losing your artists is good business sense, either).

Changes are fair. Always wonder if I give too much or not enough details when I submit a PLBC - that should solve it ^^ . I like to give suggestions for some breedings, but you answered before that this is ok, so I guess no problem with that since we know the artist may not follow them, and this is normal. I'm a bit worried about the one image limit thing, since sometimes you really need more than that to explain - for example, I have a breeding right now, where the theme is vintage tapestry. I've put two pics, who serve as references for type of markings, but mostly for colors, so I had to explain the other colors - I don't know if you follow me XD

Ohhh thank you Slash, this takes a lot of the negative stress away from the breedings.

This is awesome! ^^ However, if we have already submitted a breeding that may exceed the 4th rule, should we go change it? c: I gave two themes for my artist to pick from, because I honestly don't care which one they choose xD

Sad that people took advantage of prompts. Poor artists.
