Oekaki Rules and Information
by Simon @ Mon Oct 01, 2012 12:13 am [Reply]

All rules regarding forum conduct, child-friendly content, and art use/creation also apply to the Oekaki, but there are also some specific rules that apply only to the Oekaki forums.

Oekaki Rules

Keep comments polite, helpful, and relevant to the artwork. Do not start discussions or debates. Critique is allowed if requested by the artist but insults are not welcome.
Make an effort to post your drawing in the correct board. Continued intentional misuse of the forum categories may result in disciplinary action. You can view descriptions of what each board is for in the forum index.
Don't spam the Oekaki. Your drawing should show intention and a modest amount of effort. We do not allow random scribbles, simple shapes, or empty/solid color canvases, nor should you post advertisements for trades, streams, or other threads. Covered drawings must still follow the oekaki rules and have art visible, even if they are WIPs.
Don't create Oekaki topics just to share art you've created elsewhere. Art drawn in another program should be posted in the appropriate board (example: non-Oekaki adoptable characters go in User-made Adoptables).
Don't make Oekaki drawings with just words or puzzles written on them. The Oekaki is for sharing artwork, not for displaying a written message or playing a forum game.
If using an editable you must follow the artist's rules. This may include leaving a signature/watermark layer on the final image, or may prevent you from selling colored-in versions as adoptables.
Don't post blank canvases in the contests board. Contests may be posted there only if you provide a recognizable lineart or relevant background for contestants to use in their entries. If you don't need people to edit something in particular, go to the Regular Art Competitions Board to create your topic. You can still make a rule that your contestants make their entries in the Oekaki boards if you prefer it that way. For more specific rules about contests please view this thread.
Specific rules apply to the the Adoptable boards on the Oekaki:
- The Oekaki is for making and sharing art in the Oekaki program. If you’d like to use another program to create your adoptables, please post them in user-made adopts or character design shops. “Cover adoptables” are not permitted, except for “milestone” adoptables in which case the cover must still follow Oekaki rules.
- You may sell Oekaki art/adoptables for CS pets/items/C$, allowed offsite currency, and dA points/real currency. Keep in mind that CS staff are unable to assist with transactions gone wrong involving other site currency or real currency.
  - Any real currency discussion must occur offsite; please link to where you can be contacted. Do not discuss real currency transactions on CS.
- Post your adoptables in the correct board. If you want to create just a few adopts, use the Adoptables 1: Independent/One-Off board. If you want to create a closed species, community, and intend to make many adoptables, use the Adoptables 2: Closed Species/Communities board.
- Follow the rules outlined by the adopt creator(s). Many species owners have their own rules that you must follow in order to successfully participate in their species, so be sure to read their rules before posting. CS staff may enforce a thread owner’s rules if necessary. Note that species rules may not circumvent our official site rules.
- All Adoptable Oekaki submissions must be judged no later than 1 month after their end date. Staff may intervene if the user fails to select a winner after 1 month. Failure to judge a contest after being reminded may result in a board warning.
- Users are bound to the species rules published at the time that the user receives the adopt. If a species owner adds a new rule, they cannot punish players for breaking the rule before it was added. This includes revoking or rehoming adopts. Updated adoptable rules apply only to adopts made after the rule was published.
- Paid-entry raffles are not permitted. You may not charge users for the chance to win something.
- Competitions with entries requiring artistic/creative effort must end with a winner. The promised prize (in this case the character design) must be awarded at the end of the contest to an entrant, so be sure you want to give the character away. You may only change your mind if there are no forms that meet the competition requirement.
- If you want to transfer your species to another player, then you will need to notify CS staff beforehand. More information on transferring thread ownership can be found here.

whered everyone go?
by ♥ mizu @ Tue May 14, 2024 3:18 pm [Reply]

i realise how edgy and vent-y this looks, but it's really not. i was just thinking of all of the people that have inspired me in my art journey and how they are all gone or rarely post.

i'm gonna namedrop here out of respect because i think it's important to acknowledge my roots. idk if any of these guys will see this but you all really inspired me when i was starting out. <3

rebel, ranger, charli, kami, acro, kay, and pickles all inspired me SO much. some of you guys are still a bit active, most of you aren't. i'm happy for them that they've moved on to greener pastures but it also hurts because i don't know if any of 'em are still artists. faent (ranger) especially inspired me, he's the reason i started drawing eyebrows on my horses xD i love looking at all of my old friends' art and comparing our pieces. if you look closely, you'll notice some similarities. some of them are coincidences, some may not be. idk. i really looked up to all of these people and i just got a bit sentimental all of a sudden. i highly recommend anyone following me to check out their stuff. kay still posts every so often so i totally think you guys should follow her :)

Hawk WillowWatcher @ Tue May 14, 2024 3:43 pm

Acro is online right now! And I hope all of them are still artists, knowledge is meant to be shared. Good luck, continuing your journey! I’ll be with you along the way <3

Kayara @ Tue May 14, 2024 6:25 pm

Not me getting a shout out, you've rustled the vines of my hermit-cave-

I recognize all of those legends and I'm honored to be among them but yeah, you figure they got busy but you hope they're doing well and kept doing what they loved. I know that's the case for me at least :3 but even though we haven't seen a few of them in a while, I'm glad to have all those happy memories of interactions and the art they've left here as a light on this website. -v-

hi guys there's a vent/rant below, highlight the text if you want to read it.
otherwise just enjoy a little doodle i made.
i am so unsettled right now. i want to cry because this isn't making me feel
safe at all. so basically for a few months, this one girl, let's call her el, has
been waving to me whenever she can. that was ok, she seemed pretty nice.
she started coming over and talking to me and my bsf sometimes, and that
i didn't mind either. but today i was hugging another close friend of mine
whom i've known for eight years, mind you, when el comes over to me & her.
she says "hi! can i have a hug too?" before i continue, let me tell you i was
hugging my close friend like, a BEAR HUG. and i was really uncomfortable
because i do NOT know this girl at all (she's asked for my socials as well
which i haven't given her) and she was just there. asking me for a hug.
i didn't want to hurt her feelings so i said yes and gave her a quick little
awkward hug and left with my friend but guys. now she's going to think
we're like best friends. and i don't want to hug her again. i don't know her.
i bet she probably has a crush on me, and that makes it even more
awkward because i don't like her back at all. it's just so uncomfortable and
i'm about to cry because idk what to do.

drawing of the rainbow butterfly wolf from CS birthday
by berketexspet @ Thu May 16, 2024 3:50 am [Reply]

Hello chicken smoothie. today i have a drawing i did myself. today is a drawing of the rare butterfly wolf that people were wanting for the chickens smoothie birthday event. that was a while ago. oh boy am i going down memory lane or what? Im making this during lunch and someone said this was very accurate. This is one of my favorite smooths and his name is proton. I didn't make that name by myself, it was made by chicken smoothie automatically so don't give me credit for that. but what you SHOULD give me credit for is the art. Please do not say that this is bad or ai generated. I've gone overboard for what i was saying i would do if you said my art is bad or ai generated and for that i apologize. i did not mean it however I would cry if someone said that. Imagine if YOU spent hours on your work just to be slandered. although this smooth is very rare, I will trade it for sunback, pastel dog, or an OMG SO RARE butterfly wolf. Also, i'm commisioning anywhere between 3-58 chicken dollars for art because my mom spends her money on cigarettes instead of me so i need to do commisions for chicken dollars. And remember, the more chicken dollars, the more good the art! (the attached image is proton)

Have a smooth-tastic day!

“am i going down memory lane or what” is killing me
