reblogged @dailymirrors post with this art yesterday, but I don't know if it shows up in the reblogs in an obvious way, so I'm sharing it as it's own post!
i. What is this?
This is a port of the thread @brightmyth-fr posted earlier today in the FR discussion forums, which was then deleted a short while ago. I am reuploading it here to my blog on behalf of the AAA discord server for visibility; though I agree with the contents of this post, I did not write it. Please keep this in mind when commenting/sending messages.
Tl;DR:Ā
- Several skin denials in the recent past seem to reflect unclear or unwritten rules for custom skins. The listed skin rules have also not been updated significantly in a number of years, despite significant changes being made to the applied skin rules over time.
- We, as in a number of skin artists, are requesting that admins clarify the existing skin rules on site. We are not asking for them to be changed; we are asking for them to be reworded in such a way that reflects what skins are and arenāt denied according to sources like recent denial messages, the Skins & Accents problems thread, etc.
- This concerns the admins, not the skin moderators, who we recognize also struggle with the unclear rules and with keeping up with long skin review queues.
- If you are a skin maker, consider releasing the next set of skins you had planned and then avoiding releases for the rest of April to help bring awareness to this issue. A number of artists in the AAA discord server have agreed to do this. However, participation is entirely up to you - this is not a demand for all skin makers to stop submitting personal skins, public skins, festival entries, etc.
This is not a suggestion thread, hence why itās not posted in suggestions. This is an information and awareness post.Ā
Skin submission is a very lengthy process for a majority of skin artists. The biggest frustration we are dealing with currently is lack of clarification on rules. The current skin guide is nearly a decade out of date.
We do not ask for the rules to be changed.Ā We would like staff to update the on-site skin guide.Ā Rules have clearly changed since it was written and there are VERY minor things that will get a skin 100% denied.
Failing that, this can serve as a warning for aspiring skin artists to not fall into these common denial traps.
What site/thing did you use for picking contest winner?
I counted every entry and then used random.org to choose a random number from that total. I'm sure there's a better way to do it but this was ok for what I needed to do.

How you been? Haven't heard from you recently, you ok?
Doing fine! My old laptop died so I've been unable to do art for a good while, I'm slowly getting back into digital art now that I've replaced it.
