Submission Guidelines

Reposting submission guidelines for any newcomers. Thanks for being such a wonderful bunch guys, keep the gorgeous art coming!

--

Welcome to The-Frieza-Force, a Dragonball Z club for fans of the Frieza Force e.g. Zarbon, the Ginyu Force, Sauza, Frieza, Cooler etc.. We'd love for you to be able to participate in the fun, but first, please look over our policies for great justice.

Submission policy

We really appreciate whenever people want to share their work with the club! However, we want to present everyone with some really worthwhile stuff around here, so laid out here are our guidelines. Excuse me while I quote from fanartists-club:

"...fanart encompasses an extremely large portion of art on dA, so to avoid inbox flooding we can only accept submissions that are at or above a certain level of quality.

What do we mean by quality?

Clean presentation: This is particularly relevant for traditional works but of course may apply to digital works too. Scans/photos of works should be clear and sharp (photos in particular - we rarely if ever accept photos of art here). Submissions on lined paper won't be accepted, nor will submissions where wrinkles in, or edges of the paper are visible.

Secondly, we have a standard that is based on the typical quality of submissions we receive from all members. If your submission is declined, it means that we felt that your piece fell below the average quality of submissions. However, submissions that show great effort have a good chance being accepted even if they are below the quality bar. So please submit only your best works..."

Content

We will typically accept any finished work or clear sketches that relate to the Frieza Force members. We want to present the best of what's available in our particular fandom niche, but we need your cooperation!

In general, the following will NOT be accepted:

-Explicit violent/sexual material (partial nudity OK)
-Exceedingly rough sketches
-Exceedingly blurry scans or photographs of fanart
-Pieces created using bases. That is, pre-existing art that has been built on
-Memes that do not significantly pertain to the Frieza forces
-MS Paint or otherwise crude art/doodles (though some exceptions may be made for fanmanga)

OCs

We DO accept art with OCs in them, as long as:
-The OC is interacting with a canon character.
-The number of OCs does not exceed the number of canon characters in a piece.
-The piece is not ridiculously self-indulgent (read: tribute to one's own character that just happens to have a canon character in it. It really takes a lot for something to be rejected for this reason, so it's a rare issue.)

If your submission is rejected

If your submission is declined, it doesn't mean that we don't like it, nor does it mean that your art isn't good. We're not out to give anyone a hard time. We're just trying to maintain a certain level of quality in the galleries, so don't be discouraged. Let's all have fun together. :3
