Slower Submission Reviews
|
I am currently waiting for real internet to be installed in the unit I've moved into. Currently I am on a mobile hot spot, but without net neutrality it's been horribly throttled. As such it takes a bit of time to load anything which has slowed down submission reviews. Thank you for your patience and understanding. ;3 |
Welcome to ArtisticAnimanga. We're an anime/manga group that was established in 2010, so we've been around for over 8 years! We've hosted multiple contests, giveaways, and other events during our time and hope to continue doing so.
How to Join
In order to join our group you will need to read and follow the listed directions. We suggest you read all the steps before sending a join request. Any join requests that don't follow the directions below will be automatically declined!
Step One
You must review the group policies. We understand it's great deal of information to read, but being aware of our policies is beneficial for you! You can read our group policies by scrolling down a little further to that section.
Step Two
Once you have read through the policies, you'll need to take a quick test to verify you've read the group's policies. You are free to reference the group policies as you take the test. Due to being able to review the group's policies while taking the test, we will only accept scores of 100%.
Step Three
Important!
At the end of the test, once you've clicked the submit button, there will be a phrase that you will need to copy and paste into your join request. If your join request does not have this phrase, it will be declined!
Click here to take the test.
Patience
Join requests take some time to review, so please have some patience and do not send multiple join requests while you have other join requests pending!

- Exploitations
- Do not remove your accepted deviation from the group and resubmit it in order to have it reappear in our watcher's inboxes.
- If you did not draw it do NOT submit it!
- We will only accept submissions from the original artist that created the illustration.
- Submissions must be attached to the original artist's account!
- This means that we will not accept; submissions from shop accounts, submissions from anyone other than the original artist, submissions from those who have commissioned the artwork, or submissions from the concept/creator of an illustration.

Unacceptable Submissions
- WIP/Works In Progress/Incomplete Works
- WIPs are illustrations that are currently in progress or incomplete.
- Sketch Dumps
- Sketch dumps are multiple sketches of usually incomplete works contained in a single deviation.
- Memes
- Artwork memes are difficult to define. Some are art surveys others are types of parodies of an existing work. It's simply something that has been taken, used, and spread by multiple users.
- Reproductions
- A reproduction is when a person intentionally tries to mimic or reproduce an already existing original work. We suggest you review these deviantART policies:
FAQ #304: Do you remove copies and trace-over art?
FAQ #306: Does "Crediting" let me use whatever I want? - Art Theft
- Art theft is when a person plagiarizes another artist's work. We suggest you review these deviantART policies:
FAQ #8: What are violations of the DeviantArt copyright policy?
FAQ #257: What sort of permission do I need to use someone else's work?
FAQ #306: Does "Crediting" let me use whatever I want? - Uncredited Resources
- Uncredited resources occur when a person uses a (valid) stock or resource and not not properly credit the owner/creator. We suggest you review these deviantART policies:
FAQ #157: Can I use things created by other people in my submissions?
FAQ #193: How do I prove that I had permission to use someone's work?

- Non-Collaborative Colored Line Art
- Non-Collaborative Colored Line Art is when a person uses free line art that has been provided for others to color.
- Bases/Dolls
- A base is usually a premade drawing where a person can color and draw over. There are many varieties in base types that can be used for many different types of projects (one of which is called a Doll). Unfortunately many bases are traced from existing artwork which is something we do not accept.
- Image Splicing/Photomanipulations

- Cosplay
- Cosplay is when a person dresses as a character from a film, series, book, or comic.
- Non-Drawn Works
- Non-drawn works cover everything that basically has been created through any process other than creating an illustration through traditional or digital means. Crafts, photographs, image splicing, and photomanipulations fall under this category.
- 100% Realism
- Realism styled works attempt to represent things as they appear. This means there are no obvious anime or manga styles within the illustration.
- Sexually Explicit Artwork
- Any artwork that is viewed as sexually themed or sexually explicit will not be accepted. Tasteful artistic nudity is acceptable (with the mature tag)!
- Excessive Gore
- Excessive gore is anything that goes beyond tasteful and makes others uncomfortable.
- Illustrations that are not Anime/Manga

- Violations of deviantART Policies
- Any submissions found to violate deviantART policies will not be accepted.
Reproductions Policy
This group will not accept any type of reproduction of original works.
We use the term reproduction as a broad term to cover copies and traces. A reproduction is basically to make a copy or duplicate an already existing work. This does not apply to fan art. Fan art is creating original illustrations based on an already existing character or universe (sometimes in the same style as the original) but does not attempt to replicate or duplicate an already existing illustration.
The reason we do not accept any reproductions is that there in an unfortunate association with plagiarism with most reproductions.

Terminology
Our group strives to combat copyright violations, plagiarism, and theft through education. One of the most common issues we encounter is a lack of understanding the true definition of art related terminology. Defining these terms also helps our communication between our staff and members.
- Reproduction
- A reproduction is an illustration that attempts to copy, replicate, or duplicate an already existing original work. Reproductions can be produced by tracing over an original illustration, eye-ball copying, or using vectors. Reproductions may have the colors changed from the original but still keep to the original as close as possible.
- Trace
- Tracing is when a person uses layers (digital medium), tracing paper (traditional medium), or a light table (traditional medium) to reproduce an existing illustration as exact as possible.
- Copy
- Copying is when a person attempts to make a similar or identical version of an original illustration. This is usually achieved with "eye-balling" the original.
- Eye-balling
- Eye-balling is when a person freehand copies an original illustration by viewing the original and attempts to make a similar or identical copy.
- Plagiarism
- Plagiarism is when a person tries to claim another person's work or idea as their own. This is connected with reproductions and art theft. Art theft takes the original illustration and simply claims it as their own whereas reproductions create a copy of an original work where the person then claims it as their own.
- Art Theft
- Art theft occurs when a person takes an original illustration and tries to pass it off as their own original work when they had no involvement in the production of the illustration.
- Reference
- A reference is not a reproduction. In art a reference is when an artist uses resources to help them in creating an original illustration such (i.e. a pose reference).
- Resource
- A resource is something available for artists to use to enhance their originals works such as; stock images, brushes, patterns, music, etc. Resources should always be properly credited and should be defined as a resource that is available for use. An example of something that is not a resource is taking and using an image found through Google Images.
- Fan Art
- Fan Art are original illustrations that use existing characters from existing universes (from films, series', comics, books) that may attempt to emulate an art style but do not reproduce any official artwork or other fan arts from that same fandom.

Thank you for your time
I am having trouble submitting my deviation in this group. It keeps telling me ''Sorry, you do not have permission to submit artwork to this group.''
