RULES

Rules for the Club
:bulletpurple:Membership open to anyone
:bulletpurple:3 submissions a day for members. Non-members can submit 1 a month, because sometimes I have a a piece that would fit with a group, but I don't want to join a group for 1 image. If you have more than 1 image you want to submit though, feel free to join!
:bulletpurple:Can be any medium/original or fan character/guy or girl
:bulletpurple: Humans only or anthro characters. No animals.
:bulletpurple:must be a finished work-no sketches, wip's, no work on lined paper, and if you are scanning or photographing your work it must be of a decent quality
:bulletpurple: Please submit to the right media category, it's up to you what you think fits best. "Daily Deviations" is ONLY for work that has earned a DD. If you see a DD that has a purple-haired person, please submit it!
:bulletpurple:must have at least one person with purple hair, but can have other characters, the person with the purple hair must be in the foreground and about equal in importance to the other characters in the piece
:bulletpurple: You can submit other's art if it fits. We love collecting! If we approve it, it is up to the other artist to decide to approve it as well.
:bulletpurple:hair can have other colors in it, but purple should be at least have half the color, or if highlights they need to stand out above the base color and be the main feature of the hairstyle. I know sometimes pink and blue look purplish, just use your good judgment.
:bulletpurple: Mild nudity is allowed, but no explicit sexual theme
:bulletpurple: If you remove a deviation with no warning, you will not be allowed to submit again. This isn't a "get page views then ditch" group. It's not fair to the other members. If you do feel the need to remove a piece, let us know why FIRST.
:bulletpurple:have fun!

Questions:
:bulletpurple:Why was my deviation declined?
--We really don't decline a lot but there are a few reasons:
1)Wrong category. Most frequent. Sometimes I just add them and move them myself, but that gets annoying and it's much easier for you all to use the drop down menu than it is for me to add, go into the gallery, and constantly move pieces around. We will no longer be telling you it's wrong and to resubmit as the right category. If you read the rules, you can figure it out yourself, if you don't bother to read the rules, you shouldn't be submitting to groups.
2)-The quality of the scan/photo was too poor. If you can see lines on the paper or the background behind the work you photoed, if it's not straightened or it's blurry, it just shows you don't care. Which is a shame if you make a really nice drawing and take a lousy photo of it. Be proud of your work and pay attention to presentation!
3) The hair isn't purple! I know colors look similar but some people have submitted work where the hair is not even possibly purple.
4.)It's really just too sexual. I know art is subjective, but there are some images I don't feel comfortable promoting. There are plenty of clubs that specialize in those though.
5.) Expired images --I never let this happen, but it IS possible when I approve an image I accidentally click it twice and one image gets deleted from my inbox that wasn't approved/denied. This was a mistake and please submit again!
We have just a bit of tweaking of the rules based on a previous journal entry.

THE HAIR
The hair doesn't need to be 100% purple, but it needs to be prominent in the colors, so either 50% purple with another color or have highlights/tufts/streaks that feature in importance above the main hair. So if the hair is rainbow colored, purple would just be lost among the other colors and wouldn't really fit the theme of  the group. Also if the purple is a tint or lowlight and it's hard to see, then "barely sort of purple" isn't really what people who want to see art from this group want to see.

THE FOCUS
There was some varying opinions here, so we'll try something and can always readjust. The person with purple hair should be in the foreground and at least equal with other figures in terms of importance. We can be a little open here, but it does make sense to have them somewhat featured to be in the group as opposed to just coincidentally having someone in a crowd have purple hair.

Any questions/comments/concerns, feel free to share!

It might have meant to be pink but it very much crosses into purple territory. I'd suggest using a shade with more red tint.

Well first I'm not sure why thought anyone would have any idea what you were talking about. And her hair looks purple there, so if someone submits it to the group, we're going to accept it. If you have a problem with that....wait honestly I have no idea why you're complaining. How does that image being in the club and giving the artist publicity hurt you?
