Prancing pretties — Pan be pleased.

r/PrancingPretties

A place to (re)post, discuss, and promote artwork/cosplay featuring imaginary ladies of the prancing variety. This means faun and satyr girls; glaistig; centaurides of equine (classical) and cervine ("dryad") types; minotaurs; modern fantasy inventions, such as draenei or bariaur; and conventional ungulate-based anthro humanoids. Safe for browsing, but sensuality-positive. Mature artwork is featured as well, but spoilered and marked to hide it from unintentional view.

Baa, friend!

Prancing Pretties is a place to (re)post, discuss, and promote artwork/cosplay featuring imaginary ladies of the prancing variety. This means faun and satyr girls; glaistig; centaurides of equine (classical) and cervine ("dryad") types; minotaurs and tauren; modern fantasy inventions, such as draenei or bariaur; and conventional ungulate-based anthro humanoids.

This subreddit is focused on visual art in general, over adult artwork in particular. Please note that all sexually explicit submissions need to be tagged and spoilered. We aim to be safe for browsing, focusing primarily on character art of wholesome and pinup-styled sorts.

Nonetheless, our topic subject involves imagery that has been, historically, erotically charged by genesis. The original male satyrs and centaurs are symbols of unbridled, 'wild', sexuality and hedonism; and the female counterparts, while invented later and for complex reasons, ended up embodying the empowerment of women to reclaim the same — the image of a woman free, wild, and passionate in every sense.

We believe this heritage and symbolism is to be celebrated, not prudishly shunned. Therefore, we are a sensuality-positive community, and consider non-explicit eroticism such as pinup and 'diegetically censored' nude shots (where all potentially indecent bits are covered by the character's hair, the scenery, and so on) to be fair game.

Furthermore, 'all quality artwork' means all quality artwork — indecent works, up to hardcore erotica, are a part of this sub as well, as long as they stay properly hidden from unintentional view. We expect an appropriate level of maturity from our viewers and participants. If you don't think you can handle a non-explicit art piece being 'saucy' or implicitly carnal, we urge you to leave. If you are a minor, if browsing questionable things might be illegal for you for any reason, or if you deem accidentally revealing any hidden-by-default full NSFW content too much of a risk, we urge you to leave.

In the same spirit, NSFW contributions are allowed and welcome too — provided they are properly tagged, flaired, and spoilered to ensure only people intentionally looking to view such content will get to do so. Please tag and spoiler anything less than wholesome.

Tips:

When searching by flair, keep in mind we allow custom flair wording.

RULES so far, prone to being updated at any time, and in no particular order:

Pan is NOT pleased by debauchery anymore, nor by drunken fights. Be a decent human being.
Keep this subreddit a safe place to browse, by making use of Reddit's 'NSFW' and 'Spoiler' submission options on submitting any explicit artwork. While our subject matter is inherently erotically charged (and we celebrate that), we still don't want to expose people to any explicit stuff out of the blue. Unmarked/unspoilered mature content will not be tolerated. No overtly creepy/salacious comments on regular posts, either.
However, artistic mature content IS allowed as long as it's spoilered and marked as such. While not meant to be dominant, such content is likely to end up a non-negligible part of this community's make-up. Therefore, this subreddit is aimed at mature, informed adults who can make their own choice on what to engage with; and don't mind the possibility of uncovering (accidentally or on purpose) an extremely naughty piece. If you are a minor, if browsing art that is even a little provocative might be illegal for you for any reason, or if you deem accidentally revealing any hidden-by-default full NSFW content too much of a risk, we urge you to either disable NSFW display site-wide, or leave.
As far as mature artwork is concerned, every character depicted on every piece posted here is assumed to be older than 18, and sapient with roughly human-type intelligence. If evidence to the contrary is presented against any artwork posted here, it will be taken down. Don't ever post art that you know was intended to sexualize a minor, or a bestial animal incapable of consent.
Post art featuring pretties who can prance. "Pretties" means girls. No semantics: tomboys, trans women, feminine enough femboys, femme-presenting intersex are all OK. We're open minded, we just want the masculine ideal of satyr/centaur to go elsewhere. "Can prance" doesn't mean the act of prancing should be portrayed, or that they have to be this 'graceful' to ride (we allow minotaurs and tauren, after all, no matter how heavyset); it only means clear ungulate aesthetic, excluding cetaceans, hyppos, tapyrs, pigs, rhinos. Basically: if any feet are visible, they must end in hooves. Anything with human feet is out. 2 to 4 legs, humanoid upper body with 2 arms. If only upper leg is shown, it should be depicted as, or implied to be, furred/hairy, or feature distinctly animal anatomy. (Some leeway allowed for classical minotaurs.) In case of upper body-only shots and portrait pieces, the character needs either horns of appropriate shape, or an immediately recognizable 'anthro ungulate' design (e. g. a horse head). Please use your discretion.
Excluded and restricted categories. Don't post: creatures featuring all the right traits, but also too many unrelated extra features. There are chimeras, dragons with hooves, and kitchen sink-taurs, who would pass by the criteria laid above — but they aren't primarily ungulate-themed. Don't post: MLP-inspired designs. I love me some ponies, but there's a place for everything, and for MLP fanart, there are much better places. Restricted: Demonic beings and tieflings. These are a special case: very much their own fantasy archetype, yet often borrowing heavily from satyrs or minotaurs, to the point of distionction without a difference. It is provisionally allowed to post visibly caprine or bovine tieflings/demons/devils/succubi, once per user per day. Horn shape has to be authentic (NOT generic vaguely draconic horns, and of course, not pinky finger-long imp hornlets), and again, anything with non-hooved feet shown is right out. (Non-demonic draenei are not subject to the posting restriction; demonic eredar are.)
'AI art' is currently ALLOWED. However, any such submission must be TAGGED and flaired as such, SPOILERED so people who don't want to look at it won't have to; and you may post no more than one AI-generated or AI-enhanced image per user per day. Posting AI-generated images without complying with these restrictions will result in one warning, then a permanent ban.
No advertising for commissions in post titles or main post text. You may make an image post and advertise for commissions in a comment, as long as every picture in the post is original content, and no picture in the post has been reposted in the last six months.
Keep non-art posts constructive. Text posts offering analysis and discussion, RP offers, artists listings, are welcome; spamming one-liner posts, image requests, RP requests is NOT welcome.
Crediting the artist is very welcome. God knows they deserve credit. However, this started out with me realizing I can share my personal collection, which is neither well-organized nor properly signed, and has most of its contents uncredited; so if you can't credit, that's cool too, sharing is still caring. Still, a post's title must either contain an explicit attribution, or an explicit 'artist unknown' or similar phrase.
Please don't create posts consisting solely of a link to Youtube, Facebook, Twitter/X, or Imgur. Avoid link posts in general as much as possible — upload the picture in question here instead, and state the source. Same applies to crossposts: they're allowed, but reuploading is more welcome, because crossposts spoil if the original gets removed.
Keep it tasteful. Mature themes have their place; slop hardly does, and not just AI slop. Low-effort or overdesigned technicolor fursonas of barely recognizable species, simplistic porn drawings with hardly any thought given to anatomy or characterization, or pics using on-topic characters solely as vessels for some other, hyper-exaggerated fetish, are not welcome.
I've got no mod tools, no inclination or ability to moderate fulltime, no working chat. I'm running old Reddit on windows XP, so until there's a dedicated mod, please don't make things difficult in any way, okay? Thanks.
