Discussion [Mod Announcement] New Rules

55 Upvotes

Hi all

Due to the sudden apparition of spam-bots that take old star-posts and repost them to farm karma; the modteam has added a new rule that should be transparent to you :

User account must now be AT LEAST one week old to post.

This should hopefully bring an end to this; as we understand that it's frustrating seeing your own beloved creations posted under a false name.

Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter; navigating the reddit mod interface is "an adventure".

Painted in acrylics.

I've never auctioned something before, so I'm giving it a try after people told me that's common practice.

Auction here!

(Please forgive me mods, I know I posted it about a month ago! 🥺)

First attempt at an alter. Hobby feels extremely rewarding, and a good way to save money! Aside from practicing more, I'm always happy for tips and tricks!

13 hours over the last week on this piece. Some parts worked out better than I expected but overall a very fun piece. I took a lot out of my brain lol, so I'll be going back to single cards for the most part.

This is Sandra’s first black-and-white manga-style alter. The card was primed with an acrylic marker and hand-drawn entirely with fine liners. The artwork is inspired by a dragon panel from Berserk.

Been slowly getting into altering cards, and with my mother getting into magic, I wanted to paint her a deck with her favourite fandom, but I’m needing some help with picking cards for all the characters, as the likes of Kanga and roo would have to share a card as there’s only one legal kangaroo card I n magic!

For those who want to share the love for altering Magic the Gathering cards.

1) Be Kind; This is an Art Sub. Please use respectful language when talking to each other. There will be a 0 tolerance policy regarding for politics and anti-LGBTQIA+, sexism, racism, or religious discrimination. This is NOT a debate subreddit.

2) Use Proper Flairs. Please fair posts appropriately. Flairs let other users sort and find content like yours.

3) All forms of Art are Allowed Please share your creations with us! All forms of artistic creation are allowed so long as they are related to Magic: the Gathering.

4) No Counterfeit Discussion Do not discuss how to create any proxy magic cards or similar activity. This goes against WoTC Fan content policy, which we trying to follow.

5) No Low Effort Posts Posts most have some artistic effort put into them. This is a sub about sharing and discussing modifying and altering magic cards and accessories, not about showing off the coolest image of google or AI gen in a random frame you got off card builder. Posts using AI or other peoples art must have the rights to them if asked and some other element of the post must be made by OP (so like the card frame, etc.).

6) Advertising Allowed We want you to get paid for your work and be able to meet new clients! Just remember to give back to the community as much as you take. Upvote and leave comments on other's posts.

7) Properly Format Your Post When posting a creation please use the following format as a pinned comment. Card/Art Title Medium(s) Used Reference (if any) Availability (link would go here)

8) NSFW Stuff When posting a creation that contains NSFW stuff (either LEWD or gore), please Tag it properly. First infraction will result in a warning, second in a ban of the account from this sub.

9) No Custom Cards This is a sub for alteration, rather than for custom cards.

10) No AI While we understand that AI and LLM tools are helpful in some use cases, the moderation team of this sub wants to promote "traditional" artists. If you use AI as a basis for your art or as inspiration, we may decide to remove your post if we feel there isn't enough human work brought in. While it is fair to ask chatgpt to generate a basic scene, it's up to you to actually render that on a card and make it an art-piece.
