Oekaki/Drawing Board Rules:

1.) Don't SPAM! If your picture qualifies for any of the following, then it probably is:

  • It's under 15 minutes of work. (And yes, we can tell, because it says the time above the picture.)
  • It's a blank picture.
  • It's an uncompleted picture.
  • It's a text-only picture.
  • It plainly looks like crap or shows no effort. :D (Aka, a wobby-lined mess)

         If you have a picture that you did not have the time to finish or didn't like after you made it you don't have to submit. You can screen-cap it by pressing "Control" and "Print Screen" and save it to your computer. If you post a spam, we will delete it. 

2.) Only 1 drawing per page. (2 if the quality is superb.) Lots of people draw here and a good handful work hard on their pictures. It's not fair that their pictures are bumped off because you couldn't help yourself. 

3.) You must comment on your own picture once you've submitted it. It's not fun playing the guessing game, and it's really not that hard. 

4.) Don't comment on people's pictures before they've had time to make the first comment. It's their submission, otherwise people will think the picture is yours if your name is at the top.

5.) No advertisements unless you actually draw a decent picture. It's annoying seeing a text-only or 3-minute picture next to someone asking if we'll go to their oekaki. :/

6.) Don't make pictures and posts to discuss your personal life and expect reassuring comments from others. You'd be bringing the oekaki down by saying "oh, my boyfriend broke up with me" when we're all trying to draw and have fun! If you want help with your problems, seek out an internet or real-life support group. 

7.) Please, no long strands of text, like "AAAAAAGGHGHHOHGODDDD!" 

8.) Use PROPER spelling and grammar. I mean, yes, we're gonna be friends and joke around, but you know what I mean. Nobody wants to read "so omg lyk u draw so god! want 2 be friendz?". We want to limit the amount of aspirin bottles.

9.) Don't complain, ask questions, or try to start conversations with other people on another artist's picture. That's rude! Make your own post. And even then, we'd delete it. :D

10.) No porn. No, not all of us are sheltered and immature- but most people do not enjoy scrolling down to a novice oekakier's attempt at the human body or any activity with it. 

11.) Lastly, the fundamentals: try to be nice to other oekakiers and respect their work. Yes, sometimes people act retarded, but they aren't breaking the rules, so leave hurtful comments out of it unless you feel the undying need to start a flame-war. And no, Constructional Criticism is not being mean- the intention is to help you get better by pointing out your faults. 

12.) And, respect the mods, Sara, Blossom Gurl, and Powerpuff-Lover. Unless they're being complete jerks (like I tend to be), because then there's no excuse. :3

13.) PS, BG will win.

PPS: Nobody cares if you know Japanese.
PPPS: Nobody cares if the timer lies. :D

With that in mind...On to the board!
