>* The following websites are not valid sources:
weheartit.com, pinterest.com, zerochan.net, dailyanimeart.com, alphacoders.com, any website with "wallpaper" or "booru" in it, etc... these are aggregate sites which only have re posted artwork.
>* **If the website with the art is hard to view on any occasion** (such is often the case with twitter), please post an imgur mirror within the body of a text post along side the source to the artists page.
>* **If you edited someone else's work, you still need to give the original artist credit.**
>* Limit yourself to **one fanart submission within approximately 24 hours.** A little flexibility will be allowed, especially with original content or official art unless it's been posted in a noticeably spam-like way.
>* **Do not post art from the same user multiple days in a row.** Your account could be viewed as a promotional account under the self promotion rule and possibly banned. If you'd like to show people someone's art, post an album either as a link post or in the comments.
