Some info on basic stuff that doesn't fit in the rules; a FAQ of sorts.
Last updated on Jan 26, 2011. Some of these sections will not be open yet.

Louisa and Ren run the forums: Melora is just here as another member, for maintenance and for site content.

Posting Restrictions:
To keep things organized: In these sections, regular users can NOT post new threads, they can only post replies:

Art Resources
Artist Bio's & FAQ's + Community Info
Illustration and Painting Museum
Comics and Story Telling Museum
Sculpture, Crafts, Cosplay, and Body Art Museum
Wallpaper and Avatar Museum
"Modern" Media Museum

Regular users can not delete their own posts: If you screw up, like by double posting, edit your 'mistake post' to say something like "please delete." That will make it clear that a mod should delete it when ever they happen upon it. (And we'll appreciate you all the more for being helpful )

Attachments:
They are currently enabled for everyone, but they're not enabled in every section. I'm going to see how this works out, it might change from time to time. Use them, mostly, to post your art: Please feel free to use them in the General Art forum so your artwork does not become a broken link over time. (Same as the conceptart.org forums.) The other encouraged use for them is if you find rare media- like official art or comics- and you don't think the link will be around forever and you want to show us. Try to use them sparingly for anything else.

Current Attachment Restrictions:

3 attachments per post
Image files only: gif, jpeg, jpg, png, tga, tif, tiff
No set dimension limit
2 megabyte size limit per file. For anything larger: email me or use your own hosting account.
Max thumbnail size: 400x400
Private message attachments NOT enabled.
You do not need to delete old attachments. I have an unlimited account

The Museum sections do not allow attachments. This is to encourage people to actually email all the fanwork submissions.
