Art Gallery Notice

Site Update


As we near Sunday (when the first six Art Gallery winning submissions will be selected and displayed), I find myself getting a bit concerned with the entries. To be frank, like 90% of them aren't following the rules. An entry that does not follow the rules will not win a prize, regardless of how good the entry is.

Common errors


- Not putting username and ID on the image

- the image not being Aywas related (seriously? Why do people keep uploading seemingly random images?)

- the work having a copyright notice on it (this wasn't explained in the Art Gallery, but it is in the TOS - everything you submit to us that is Aywas-related becomes our property, so you cannot have your copyright on an Aywas image)



Don't forget - the deadline for this is 11:59 PM on SATURDAY, as the six winners will be announced on Sunday. Don't be late, there is SP and a rare item on the line!

(PS: Spensey-poo is going to be rapid-fire stocking the plush shop at 10:00 PM)

Wait... am I reading this correctly? So basically the art rule states that once I submit any artwork that has something Aywas-related in it, it no longer belongs to us but to you? Not sure how I'd feel about submitting something to the site then if I lose the right to my own artwork :|

I'd suggest you read the TOS, Kasumi... most specifically the part about Copyright.

I spam plush shop all day and of course I just /have/ to go take a shower right then lol I am so still kicking myself. As for the artwork, I'm with kasumi. But I'm sure that there are people on here that don't mind giving away their art to a site to use for free, (or for a /chance/ to win a prize) I just am not one of them =|

Everything Aywas related that is submitted to the site becomes our property. Please re-read the TOS.

It's meant to distinguish between aywas-related and non-aywas related stuff. For example, if you post your school term paper, that does not become our property as it is not aywas related. If you post a picture you drew of a Neopet, it does not become our property because it is not Aywas related. If you post a suggestion, it does, because it is aywas related. If you post an aywas drawing, it does, because it is aywas related.

Yes, I had a moment of duh-ness. That should have been a given. Usually any artwork copied from a site such as this would automatically belong to that site. My fingers were just typing quicker than my brain was thinking or something lol
