20 March: The 2026 staff drive is now CLOSED! If you are selected to move forward, you will be contacted via DMail. Important note: this process takes a long time, usually several weeks. If you would like to know the status of your application after 10 April, feel free to contact me (Rainbow Dash).
24 February: Just as a heads up, we've updated our uploading guidelines to include a new entry. This was added to address a string of bad faith content that was exploiting our very permissive content standards.
Please don't engage in tag wars. [Source] For issues with a post's tags, please report the post(s) in question and request that an admin review the tag(s).
Tagging, Rating, and Sourcing Abuse
Do not add any tags that are invalid, and do not remove tags that are valid.
Tags in the general category are considered valid if they follow the Tag What You See principle – that is, they must be describing what is visible in the post.
Tags in the lore category convey the artist's intentions or other background information.
Tags in other categories are valid if the information that they convey is objectively true, such as the artist's name or the image's aspect ratio.
Do not upload posts with fewer than ten general, non-implied tags.
This restriction will be eased if the post does not have ten distinct tags that are reasonably applicable to it.
Do not use tag or description edits to be disruptive.
Do not add any sources that are invalid, and do not remove any sources that are valid.
Valid sources are defined as web pages where the artwork can be found.
At least one source page should be publicly available, unless you are the artist, commissioner, or copyright owner of the artwork.
Do not use links to piracy sites as sources.
Links to the exact submission page where the artwork can be found should be prioritized. This is not the same as the direct image link, which isn’t helpful. Links to the artist's gallery pages should be added to their artist page.
Do not add source links that redirect to a different URL (eg. URL shorteners).
Dead links to pages where the artwork could be found in the past are still considered valid and should instead be disabled by prefixing them with -.
Please don't announce when adding something to your blacklist. [Source]
Refusal to Use Blacklist
This site hosts a wide variety of content, and not all of it may appeal to everyone.
Do not complain about content that could be blacklisted. Simply add the corresponding tag to your blacklist. If you believe that a post is missing a valid tag, add the tag yourself.
Do not make messages announcing that you have blacklisted a specific tag or certain kinds of content.

Minor cases of role-playing may be excused if they are short, either humorous or otherwise non-disruptive, and are made in response to a situation or joke set up by the content of a post, or in similar context.
Strikethrough tags were invalid or inapplicable and have been removed or changed. [Source] Please use the Wiki if you need help understanding the usage of any tags, or ask directly at the Helpdesk on our Discord. You can also search our Forum.
