Hello, My submission got rejected for the wrong reasons, and im quiet unpleased and unhappy with it. one of your admin's rejected my artwork THAT I COLORED. that i have the PSD files for. Because they thought it was 'found off the internet'.

It was a collab between me and my friend, he did the inks and i colored it. It is MY artwork and im quiet upset with this. You guys allowed me to post a picture before that was a collab. Why not now? Lol

The submission number was also 792549.

I've mentioned this in our AP staff thread. Honest mistakes do occasionally happen....

On a semi-related note, when doing a collab with other artists, please include the URL to their work when possible.

In the meantime you will simply have to resubmit.

Alright, thats understandable.

Thank you So much for helping me on this, and i re-submitted it. sorry if i seemed to have a attitude. I was a bit upset over thinking that someone thought i'd steal artwork and stuff. ^^;

Hope you have a nice day, thanks so much for helping!

Hi Strata.

I just wanted to know if my forum ban was temporary since I'm not banned from the mainsite. I was going to PM you but I guess it's part of the forums. Yeah.

I want to discuss this with other staff members because these complaints about you, Brian, and Leo are a long-term problem.

Hello, Stratadrake.

I do not remember pending pictures taking so long to be approved. I have not submitted any work in months, so I am not quite sure if anything has changed.

Will I have to wait for approval for future submissions as well?

Nothing has changed, but it looks like we didn't have any AP staff active yesterday.

All right, that is pretty simple. Thank you. ;)

okay,no problem. thnx for telling me

Hello :]

Try advertising on forums that have a anime/manga/etc. section, hackforums for example, 300k+ users, could get a few people here.

reason why no ones here:
DA is better, more populat.
The admins don't try to advertise the site.
etc.

dA is very successful, yes. They offer commercial services, have different advertising partners..., heck, they can even afford to pay their staff members.

I hear that even FAC's adult counterpart (Hentai Foundry) is much more successful than FAC itself, even though the site has basically the same look, features (and, yes, bugs) as FAC. It no doubt has a better, more mature userbase with fewer trolls and problem users. I don't know for sure because I do not operate an account there.

I am no fan of our current advertising methods myself, considering that those ads popping up when you click random links also interfere with staff functions.

And I, for myself, have never advertised FAC outside of placing a link to my FAC account in my sig.
