Hello All,

Here is some information regarding links to Deviant Art. Since we have a lot of members asking about what is allowed and what is not, we thought it would be helpful to post it here.

Links to DeviantArt are allowed in gallery image descriptions as long as they go to one of the following: 

*Galleries
*Gallery images
*Profile pages
*Prints

HOWEVER, if there are any downloadable products either for sale or as a freebies in the galleries or profiles, they are prohibited as they are considered advertisting text. 

Some examples of such products/freebies are:

*Characters
*Photoshop Brushes
*Background Packs                                                                                                       *Stock Images      

Credit may still be given (and is encouraged if you would like to do so) in the form of listing the information (example:  background image by KittysTavern (DeviantArt) ), but please refrain from using any HTML code (clickable links) or Static Links (containing http://, www, and .com which can be copy and pasted into your browser). 

This applies to static links posted on images themselves as well.  

A Note Concerning Freebies:  Links to products not available in the Renderosity Marketplace or Free Stuff section are considered advertising text and are not allowed in gallery image descriptions.

If you create freebie products and you would like to link to them directly in your image descriptions, you can upload them to the Renderosity Free Stuff section and link directly to them there.

Alternatively, links to offsite freebies are allowed in the Freestuff Forum. If you wish, you may post a link there to an offsite freebie, and then a link to the image hosted in the gallery here that showcases the item in a rendered environment.

If you have any questions concerning any of the above, please do not hesitate to contact me or another member of the staff and we will be happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Thank you, all, for being a part of the Renderosity community.

Happy Renderings!
