^{IE if you have no deviations in your gallery and have made no comments etc you are a blank account generally only made to get access to DA stock to use off site - we're not stupid.}

FAQ #81: How can I make links to other deviants, deviations, or websites?

YOU ARE REQUIRED TO NOTIFY ME WITH A LINK TO YOUR DEVIATION WHICH MUST BE ON DEVIANTART AS SOON AS YOU POST! BY COMMENT ON THE ORIGINAL STOCK OR IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO FIND THE ORIGINAL STOCK BY NOTE.

OUTSIDE REPOSTING OF YOUR ARTWORK  - to your own blog/personal website/other art forum/gallery is acceptable as long as full credit is given (where reasonably possible) and a link to the location sent to me in a note.

TRADITIONAL ART REFS - YES!

PHOTOMANIPULATION GALLERY DESCRIPTION -

The Photomanipulation section is dedicated to digital photographs that have undergone post processing and/or editing via the use of a graphical imaging software. The extent of manipulation should be prominent and noticeable in ways where it can be clearly distinguishable from the unaltered photograph.

When submitting to Photomanipulation, keep in mind deviantART's policies regarding source image reuse. You must have explicit permission to use images that are not your own or are not stock images, no matter how much time you spend manipulating them. It is recommended that you also state if you've used your own pictures to avoid misconceptions.

Please Note: All images submitted to this section should be altered in such way that it is clear you have used techniques other than a filter and/or alteration in the colour of the original. Rather than into the photomanipulation gallery, these pictures should be submitted to Photography or Digital Art>Miscellaneous. Also note that drawing or writing on top of a picture does not constitute as a photomanipulation. These deviations should go into Photography, Digital Art> Paintings & Airbrushing or the Cartoons & Comics sections for example. Which category is best suited to your deviation depends on what technique dominates in your deviation. If you have used a mixture of techniques, Digital Art>Miscellaneous. Vectorized versions of your pictures belong into Digital Art>Vectors or Vexels respectively. For more information on the nature of the other categories, please read their descriptions!

  Deviantart, its owners etc DO NOT OWN THE COPYRIGHT TO MY STOCK OR ARTWORK. As stated in the submission policy here:  [link] <-- If you have agreed to this policy but have not read it or do not understand it then you NEED to go back and MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND IT!
