Welcome to DragonNation, a nation of Scale, Fur, Skin and Feather!
We are a diverse group from all over the globe. If you love
dragons you've come to the right place! Be you an author,
an artist, or a roleplayer you have a home here in the Nation!
There are never any joining requirements to be a member
and you are automatically accepted!
A nation of Scale, Fur, Skin and Feather! Originally a dAmn club, we created our group page in late 2007, then -- following the shutdown of dAmn -- we migrated our chat to Discord in 2016.
Any artwork or literature featuring a dragon or our mascots, Hyvera, Ryozan or Rumble
Hybrid and anthro dragons are acceptable, provided it is clearly stated in the description.
Only submit artwork that you have created or co-created (such as collaborations). Please review the Submission Restrictions section for exclusions to this rule.
Free-to-use lineart or bases are acceptable if you are the creator.
If the artwork was commisioned, purchased or gifted from a deviantART artist, please submit it directly from the artist's gallery. If the artist is from another platform, you may upload the commissioned work to your own gallery and submit it, provided: you have the right to do so, and you include a clear and direct link to the artist on their preferred platform.
We welcome the use of our gallery to advertise work for sale, Your Character Here (YCH) or commission and price information sheets. Submissions of any fantasy theme are allowed to our Adoptables and Commercial gallery folder, provided they follow all other rules and are of a commercial nature. Submissions to this folder will also be auto-shared on our Discord Server and select affiliated servers to help you reach a broader audience, and by submitting to this folder you consent to this sharing.
We accept AI-generated artwork submitted to our AI Generated gallery folder, provided it abides by all of our rules. Additionally, the work must be clearly labelled as an AI creation, and the prompt used for generating the artwork must be included, as we consider this the creative aspect of AI art.
Screenshots taken on a phone or computer are not accepted, regardless of the artist.
Journals are not accepted.
Work in Progress (WIP) are not accepted. Please share these on our Discord server instead.
Coloured, free-to-use (F2U) bases are not accepted.
Artwork from online dragon creator/generator services are not accepted.
We aim to maintain a PG13 friendly gallery, as such we do not accept artwork tagged as Mature.
Vore images are strictly prohibited.
Overly fetishised images or visible genitalia are not allowed. Please refer to deviantArt's policy around sexual themes for more information.
Heya guys, I think some stricter measures need to be taken about submissions. Someone just submitted a flood of outright porn (not even dragon-related /j).
Hey Electrosa! Thank you for the heads up! We've removed the offending submissions and messaged the member to remind them our rules. It was a worry of opening up the adopt/commercial folder to not require staff voting. I'm hoping this is a one off but if it becomes a recurring issue we may have to go back to requiring vetting on that folder too.
I'm really sorry you had to see that though as it's a point of pride that we try to maintain a SFW space here on dA

No worries, mature content doesn't bother me at all but I know it's important to the group's rules so I figured a mention couldn't hurt! I have a little personal experience in how hard it can be running submission-based groups so I definitely appreciate the hard work you all put in. That person was clearly spamming as many groups as they could for views and we just got caught up in that.
Hey. I was in the DIscord server for this group and I just got kicked out. I think it was a hacker who kicked me, though I'm not 100% sure. I'm hoping I could at least get an explanation as to why I was kicked...
Hey there!! First of all we are so sorry about the hacker. Half the server got kicked for no proper reason. Our newest blog entry on the group page explains it more
You are more than welcome to rejoin!!!!
Thanks. I've already rejoined. :)
Hey Wilfoe, yes one of our admins accounts got hacked and banned or kicked a bunch of people. Really sorry you were effected! You should be able to join again via the link in our Welcome section, but if not let me know.
