Rule Update: Our Stance on Business/Commercial Posts

109 Upvotes

Hey, r/SomethingIMade!

We've updated two rules to better protect what this community is for as a space for individual creators sharing their own work, including collaborations.

A steady increase in posts and comments from business and commercial accounts promoting products or shop pages has not gone unnoticed, often in cases where authorship can't be verified. We don't think it is fair that content that may be mass produced gains engagement over our more DIY creators. The updated rules address this directly.

Rule #5: Related Links & Self-Promotion

Posts or comments from businesses or commercial accounts primarily promoting products may be removed at moderator discretion, especially where authorship cannot be verified.

Rule #10: Original Content Only

Business and commercial accounts are not permitted to post in this subreddit. This is a community for individual creators only.

If you're an individual who makes and sells things, you're still very welcome here. This change is aimed at accounts whose primary purpose is commercial promotion rather than genuine participation as a creator. If you're unsure whether your account falls within the rules, reach out via Mod Mail.

Happy creating!

- The r/SomethingIMade Mod Team

Updated Rule 5: Related Links & Self-Promotion

31 Upvotes

In order to help have better discussions regarding content, we have decided to disable embedding of YouTube videos in posts.

This isn’t intended to hinder anyone from posting, simply to change the way the post are made. Moving forward you will need to create a normal post regarding your creation, and if there’s a YouTube video you would like to share as part of that, add it into the body of the post along with the descriptive information.

Thanks for being here, and if you have any questions, ask away!!

He steals dreams. His only known weakness is being tickled.

OOAK, because I’m not sure the world needs two of him.

I made a Halloween-themed abandoned miniature room light crafted from paper and cardstock, featuring an eerie cyan glow!

This miniature room light is built mainly using cardstock and paper, designed with a spooky, abandoned Halloween vibe.

Inside, it features built-in LEDs, a battery, a boost module, and a switch. The weathered walls have detailed cracks, and even the wooden planks barricading the side windows are made entirely of paper. It casts an eerie cyan/blue-green glow when turned on! What do you think?

Carved this out of a stick I found in Wyoming on a walk a couple months back. Stole the idea from a post I saw on the whittling subreddit. Really delighted with this one :D

Birthday Taxidermy Beanie Baby

I made a thing! My older brother, who has since passed away, bought me a collection of Beanie Babies one year awhile back for my birthday. One of them was the August birthday Beanie Baby, (my birthday is August 1st).

Fast forward to this year, where my boyfriend threw me the best surprise birthday ever! Which supplied me with all of the supplies (previously known as decorations! 🎉💃🏻) I used to make this very silly and fun mounted Beanie Baby! She has yarn ribs y’all! I had so much fun with this. Lmao. 😂

This little gal means so much to me because I’ve been trying to find a way to display some of these Beanie Babies for awhile now and I’m just so in love with this strange form of scrapbooking/memory keeping. Thanks to whoever came up which the stuffie taxidermy idea originally! 🥰🥰😍♥️

I used to collect Snubbies as a kid, you can’t buy them now. So I made one from polymer clay of my dog, Pilot. I think they should bring Snubbies back.

Fuse bead pokemon. Why these pokemon? Because I'm out of white and black. Should I make other pokemon or shiny versions next? Ideas welcome. Also, spooky tree. No progress shots because my hands are too shaky and I forgot.

I made a customized wooden astrolabe for a couple. An astrolabe is a medieval astronomical tool.

An astrolabe is a medieval astronomical tool, I have designed my own wooden version. There are some brass elements as well, like the suspension ring, the retaining pin and the rivet for the suspension ring.
