===========

Do I need permission to post my CBC to the site if I'm not the artist or designer

yes, please! You should have permisison directly from the artist themselves or link their TOS that shows that they do not mind their art/designs being posted out of their preferred platform c:!
If you fail to link a TOS or permission we will cancel your request and you can resubmit it when you have the proper grants available


===========

Can I add additional references to my cbc on the site?

Yes! but only an Admin can do so, please Link us to your cbcs profile and upload the image you wish to upload  via discord or through the claims submisison area (you may upload multiple images) and please make sure you:
-Have it smaller that 2000 x 2000
-Have permission to use this art work (if you are not the artist we will require TOS/Permission)

===========

I want to upload a CBC for a species I don't see on the site! Can I do that?

No! please do not upload any species we do not have permission for, if you have a species cbc you wish to upload, please contact me so I can:

• Get permission from the owner and co-owners to upload the species to the site, we need their permission and source link to list their species and we will not upload or allow any species to be uploaded without permission from the owners themselves.

• if we have asked for permission and it was not granted you will be informed that we do not have perms for that species c:! If that were to change we will let everyone know ^^!

===========

I want my cbc to have a unique Icon, how do I do that?

To do this, simply toggle off the "icon cropper" that pops up, if you're doing it correctly, when you hit "save" you should get your characters profile to look like this:

Please make sure if you're using an icon and it is not drawn by you that you have permisison to use it on our site (TOS/artist perms)

===========

Is (insert name here) ok to upload to the site/discord server?

We typically allow most medias, the only media we do not allow are medias that are overly or intentionally offensive, or media that is overly sexualized in nature. There are a few medias we DO NOT allow on the server or the site, due to these reasons:

• Hetalia (any characters from the show, due to stereotypes, which are offensive to countries and their cultures)
• Helluva boss/ Hazbin hotel (The characters are overly sexualized and we feel it is not appropriate for minors, as many members in this server are minors)
• South Park (Intentionally offensive, while we have no personal issues with the series, the series is made to be a parody of real life figures/ politicians, etc, so it is not allowed on the site/server)
• This list is subject to change at any time and is never exhausted, if we feel a series may be overly disrespectful or insensitive we will add it to this list c:

  We may consider cbcs from the following series:

  Dream SMP
  Any characters that are based on any severely "problematic" content creators are strictly prohibited from being uploaded onto the site (for example: Dream, Wilbur Soot), however any other characters aside from those would be more than alright (for example: Tommyinnit, Quackity). Our admin k1ib0uma will help us when deciding what cbcs for this series will be acceptable!
  
  ===========
  I am having an issue with the site :c! How do I report it?
  If you are having any issues with the site or run into any errors, pelase report it through the Submit Claim button!
  
  ===========
  
  

  How do I know what genre I should put my cbc in? They show up in multiple Genres!

  My answer would be to base it off of the original source, EG: Deadpool Deadpool originated from comics, and while he has some movies, his source material was from a comic, so I would say he would classify under comic however if your deadpool cbc is SPECIFICALLY made after the movie version and you dont want it associated with the comics in any way, you may upload it to the movie genre. We are not strict on this if it spans multiple genres but this would be my suggestion ^^!
  
  ===========
  
  

  I have a concern about someone on the Site :c What do I do?

  Please submit a Claim to us, provide as much evidence as possible with your claim. The admins will decide what to do with the member in question from there. Do not hesitate to report for any reason, espescially things such as questionable user names based on IRL events, harrasment of any type, cbcs based on dangerous media, etc.
  
  ===========
  
  

  Can I upload a CBC that is based on multiple characters?

  Yes! We allow cbcs that are a mixture of multiple characters c:! The only change that you need to do is listing your source media/character names: EG: Anime 1/ Anime 2/ Anime 3 Chara name 1/ name 2/ name 3 If your characters are from multiple Genres you will need to decide what genre you want your baby to fall under!
  
  ===========
  

  Are AU cbcs allowed on the site/showing for the server?

  Yes! We allow any cbc to be uploaded as long as it can be linked back to a media source with name, it is allowed EG: Jolteon Killua from HxH, but as a pokemon Mystery dungeon explorer. His personality is a little different but still similar to what hes like in the original.
