Affiliates

Welcome Welcome~!

Welcome to the offical My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic DA :devart: group! We welcome you with open hooves and encourage you to join the group, but only if you decide to submit art! If you wish to just watch our activity, do just that; Watch! :+devwatch:


Now, for the rules!

:pointr:

Mature Art



We do not allow mature art! What does this mean, exactly? What are the standards, you may ask? Simple!

If it doesn't belong in a 90's Disney movie [Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, ect] then it doesn't belong here! This means, specifically:

:bulletblue: very, VERY small amounts of blood. We're talking a maximum a cut on the arm. For example, if Scootaloo crashes her scooter and she has a cut on her face or something. That's OK. Dismemberment? No way!

:bulletblue: Shipping is allowed, but nothing overtly sexual. Kissing, hugging, cuddling, snuggling. All these things are perfectly acceptable. Anything beyond that, No way!

:bulletblue: Character death is allowed, but no blood and their eyes must be closed. Like said previously, Disney Standards. We're talking Mufasa-esque at the worst here, fillies and gentlecolts.




:pointr:

Folders!



We have almost fifty folders and sub folders! Everything is organized to a magical degree! It seems like a lot, but when you submit, things should be a lot easier to understand!

We have Eleven main folders, and all of them lead to the many, many sub folders. Please make sure to make use of the sub folders! That is why we have them!


The Fan-fictions folder has been relocated to "Other", we still gladly accept Fan-fictions!



The Featured Folder is still locked to members. Everything else is open!

If you have any questions about the folders, where to find things, feel free to note or comment the group, or any of the staff. They will be happy to help you.


:pointr:

Quality Standard


We are one of the biggest groups on all of DeviantART, and because of that we get over 2,000 submissions a week. Because of that, we have a Quality Standard, to cut down on what actually gets into the group, and therefore into YOUR inbox's. Not everyone's work will be accepted, but you can take a look at our affiliates who will gladly take everyone's work, regardless of level.


:bulletblue: We have a minimum standard for what we will and won't allow into the group. Such things are posted with examples in the Admin Area, where the moderators are split into teams to judge certain types of art. [Digital, traditional, Artisan Crafts, Customs, Vectors, ect.]

:bulletblue: If your art is declined, and the moderators did not comment on it, then your deviation most likely does not meet the quality standard. This can be a hard pill to take, but please understand it's just as hard to give, so we tend to not comment on the deviation submission. People who cause a fuss about the Quality Standard will not be induldged.


:pointr:

Vectors


We

DO

allow Vectors in this group! There is no special folder for them; sort them by character like any other type of art. Thank you!


:pointr:

Behavior


As a general rule, we expect our members to be fairly well behaved in the group area. Frustration is understandable in some instances, but please to not abuse our good humor.


:bulletblue: Don't be a brat and there won't be any trouble, basically. The staff is held at a standard to treat our members with respect. We expect the same from all of you.

:bulletblue: Do NOT comment asking why your deviation was declined. You will be ignored.
Okay, I've noticed that we've been getting most of our deviations being submitted in the wrong folder. So here's a step-by-step of everything so everyone knows where to submit what.

There's a new folder, check the bottom!

Main Folders


>Sub Folders
>Sub-sub folders

Featured


This folder is locked to everyone but Co-founders and myself.

Mane Six And Spike


Deviations that should go into this folder:
Artworks only, with two or more of the mane six and Spike. For example.

Pictures of Twilight and Spike go here. Pictures of all the mane six. Pictures of Rarity and Applejack, Ect, Ect. If it has two mane six and/or spike and no one else, it goes here.
Examples: :thumb268363835:

>Spike
This should only contain pictures that are Spike ALONE, or with a pet such as Owlolicious, Gummy, Angel, Smartypants, ect.

>Fluttershy
This should only contain pictures that are Fluttershy ALONE, or with a pet such as Owlolicious, Gummy, Angel, Smartypants, ect.

>Rarity
This should only contain pictures that are Rarity ALONE, or with a pet such as Owlolicious, Gummy, Angel, Smartypants, Tom, ect.

>Rainbow Dash
This should only contain pictures that are Rainbow Dash ALONE, or with a pet such as Owlolicious, Gummy, Angel, Smartypants, ect.

>Applejack
This should only contain pictures that are Applejack ALONE, or with a pet such as Owlolicious, Gummy, Angel, Smartypants, ect.

>Twilight Sparkle
This should only contain pictures that are Twilight Sparkle ALONE, or with a pet such as Owlolicious, Gummy, Angel, Smartypants, ect.

2+ Characters


This folder is for anything that doesn't fit in Mane Six and Spike, CMC, or Minor Characters. Such as, a picture with Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo. The Mane Six and the Princesses. Ect, Ect.
Examples:

Minor characters do not belong here. If a minor character is with a CMC or a Mane Six and/or Spike, then it belongs here. In addition, Discord/Minors and Discord/Princesses belong here as well. All pictures that only have Minor characters in them go into the Minor Characters folder, if there's more than one of them.

Discord


This folder is for Discord, and only Discord. He should be alone and not have any other characters with him. If he has any companions, it belongs in 2+.

Cutie Mark Crusaders


This main folder is only for Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle and Applebloom. The main folder should only contain pictures of all three, or two of the CMC's. No other characters belong here, if there are other characters with the CMC's, then they go in 2+.
Examples: :thumb266271854:

>Sweeite Belle
A folder for pictures that ONLY contain Sweetie Belle.

>Scootaloo
A folder for pictures that ONLY contain Scootaloo.

>Applebloom
A folder for pictures that ONLY contain Applebloom.

Derpy Hooves and Dinky


This folder is for pictures of Derpy alone, Dinky alone, and pictures of them both together. Pretty straight forward.
Examples:

Minor or Background Characters


This folder is our biggest by far, so there's a lot going on here. First of all, things that belong in the main folder are thusly: Pictures that contain two or more Minor Characters, with the exception of Lyra and Bonbon, since they have a join sub-folder together. In addition, pictures of minor characters who do not have a sub folder belong here. IE: Silver Spoon, Diamond Tiara, Carrot Top, Gummy, ect.
Examples of both:

>Vinyl Scratch/DJ-PON3
This folder is only for pictures of DJ-Pon3.

>The Wonderbolts
This folder is only for pictures of The Wonderbolts, including alone picture of Spitfire, Soarin', ect.

>Big Macintosh
This folder is only for pictures of Big Mac.

>Trixie
This folder is only for pictures of  The Great and Powerful Trixie.

>Zecora
This folder is only for pictures of Zecora, as well as pictures of her family.

>Octavia
This folder is only for pictures of Octavia.

>Dr. Whooves
This folder is only for pictures of Dr. Whooves, as well as any other Whovian ponies that have been spotted.

>Lyra and Bon-Bon
This one if for pictures of Lyra on her own, Bon-Bon on her own, as well as the two of them together. Since they are 90% of the time in the same shot together in canon and all that.

>Pipsqueak
This folder is only for pictures of Pipsqueak/Pip the Pirate!

>Family Pictures
This folder is for pictures of Mane Six' families. Twilight Mother and Father, the Apple Family [Besides Big Mac, unless he's in a group picture], Ect.

>Gilda
This folder is only for pictures of Gilda.

>Fashion Ponies
This folder is only for pictures of Fashion Ponies, which includes Sapphire Shores, Photo Finish, ect.

Original Characters


This is where you get to show off your Original Characters! Please note that we do NOT take pony-creator images at all! Also to be included in this folder is the character Surprise, as well as Lauren Faust's Alicorn character.

>OCs with FiM characters
This is for your pictures of your OCs and canon characters.

Human or Anthro


Here is where you would put any humanized or anthropomorphized ponies. Any character goes here. If it's human or anthro, no matter who it is [even OCs] it belongs here.

Princessess


Our two favorite Princess Alicorns belong here, in any picture they are together. Any picture with Princess Luna and Princess Celestia belongs in this folder.

>Princess Celestia
This is where pictures of Celestia alone belong.

>Princess Luna
This is where pictures of Luna alone belong.

OTHERx.x Fanfictions, Comics, Contests, ECT


This folder shouldn't have anything in it. It is a main folder to hold all of our "OTHER" Folders, but nothing belongs in this main one itself. Please do not submit here unless specifically asked.

>Fan-Fictions
Fan-fictions belong in this folder, and no where else.

>Photos
This folder is a little tricky. It is a sub-folder, but it has it's own set of subs as well. Things that go here are photos that do not belong in the other categories. For example: People wearing Pony Swag goes here, or makeup. Not a lot actually belongs in the main photo folder.
Examples:

>Customs
Customs are when you take a canon, store-bought toy and edit it. This can range from shaving the pony and sculpting new hair, to completely re-painting it to be another character all together.

>Artisan Crafts
This is where crafts go. Such as buttons, plushies, sculptures, ect. If you made a pony sculpture, for example, it belongs here, not in Customs. This is also where one would put pumpkin carvings, cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and other foods that are pony-related.

>Canon Toys
Here is where you would put pictures of your canon toys. If you bought a pony and re-styled their hair to seem more accurate, this is where it would go. Alsp pictures of your toys in random places go here too.

>Cosplay
And finally, this is where pictures of you or others dressed up as Pony characters. They can be humanoids or anthro or even quad costumes, they belong here.

>Animations
Here is where you would put animated pony art. Anything from pixel icons to full blown animated masterpieces. However, animations made form screenshots of the show belong in STAMPS.

>Stamps
This is where support/anti stamps for ponies go. This is also where animated banners from the show belong.

>Comics
If it's a comic, it belongs here. End of story.

>Sketchbook
Non-colored works belong here.

>Crossovers
Pretty self-explanatory, if you crossed over something non-pony into pony, then it goes here. This is also where other-Generation ponies with FiM ponies belong. [Exclusing Surprise in FiM.]

>Icon Contest/Unknown Sibling Contest
Locked. Both of these contests are over and therefore should not be submitted to.

:new:>Garry's Mod
This is for things made with Garry's Mod. However, you can't just submit screenshots or use other people's work. You have to put effort and talent into it to make it into the folder.

I request a folder for "Scenes and Objects" for drawings or 3D models of scenes and objects from the show. I have a few things that I would really like to submit, but won't fit in any other folder!

Hey there guys and gals. I'll be heading over to the beach this weekend, so I'll be sure to get a couple sunset and moon pictures for anyone who wants to use them for Celestia and Luna art.

Hopefully the weather holds up.

So uhmmm.
This got declined. [link]
I know I'm kind of fail at backgrounds. But this is like the first of all my drawings that has been declined. Can I have a specific reason? Or appeal?
