Description
body div#devskin0 hr { }
Rules and Guidelines: What we allow:
Kemonomimi (humans with animal ears).
Humans with robotic or fake ears and tails (Note: Eared hats with faces on them don't count).
Paws or hooves on the back feet are allowed, but everything above the kneecap must be human.
Slightly unnatural skin tones are okay (most warm colors and gray tones are accepted).
Fanart, and original characters are both welcome. Gijinka/humanizations are allowed if they meet the kemonomimi criteria.
Any type of art form (including photography, literary and CG) that YOU created. NO AI 'ART'!!!
What we do not allow
No elf ears.
No non-kemonomimi, anthropomorphic, furry, kemono*, modern anthro* or hybrid* characters
-Unless as a side-character or extra in the piece, but the kemonomimi character(s) must be prominent (see submission guidelines). No animal paws replacing the hands (paw shaped gloves are okay). Only animal back feet are acceptable.
No animalistic features on the face (animal noses, snouts, etc.), minimal markings are okay.
No fur or overtly unnatural skin color. Tattoo-like markings are acceptable.
No hats with animal faces or animal masks. We must be able to tell the ears "belong" to the character.
Submission Guidelines
Submit regular illustrations to the proper folder sorted by ear type. For "special" art forms, please check for the corresponding folder.
The animal ears must be clearly visible! We will not accept any kemonomimi characters with their ears cropped out of the picture. For written works, the ears must be described at least once in context.
All submissions must be in their completed state. No WIPs, lineart, sketches, incomplete YCH auctions, etc.
Submissions must show effort! No drawings on lined/graph/wrinkled paper. No photographs of a drawing or poorly scanned drawings.
All work must be your own. No screenshots, avatars, etc. No AI art or art theft in general.
No Tumblr "ask"s drawings, or text-heavy/watermark-heavy images (Deviant IDs, advertisements). Relevant Deviant stamps and memes/prompts are allowed.
For group pictures that include non-kemonomimi, the kemonomimi character(s) must be in the foreground, and account for at least 1/3 of the group or more. This also counts for "adoptables" sheets and comic pages.
No image dumps or batch adoptable sheets (the limit for adoptables is 8 per sheet).
Try to keep photography artistic and tasteful (no selfies/social media type photos)
Tasteful mature content is allowed (submit directly to the NSFW folder). No porn, overtly sexual imagery, or sexualized depictions of underage characters.Β
Please remove any works that you plan to place in storage or behind a paywall. Also, remove any adoptable sheets that are no longer relevant to our group.
Some promotional material is acceptable, but only if it meets the criteria above (focus on a kemonomimi character, minimal amount of text, etc.). We do not allow journal-based advertisements.

Hum hello there.Β
I'm sorry to bother you but I'm waiting for approval for more than two days now. I know it's a short time and it wouldn't bother me if I didn't see that you accepted other submissions by this time.Β
I'm quite confused, if I did anything wrong please tell me or if you need more staff feel free to ask. I'm not the best one but I try to come on DA once or twice a day and am already part of another group which doesn't require much time.Β
Chu.~Β Β

Hello. We have a large volume of submissions and almost always have a bit of a queue going. Typically, I try to accept about 20 a day so people's inboxes aren't too overwhelmed.Β There are currently 60 submissions in waiting, and I do see a submission from you that will likely come through tomorrow or the next day. I also add kemonomimi works I come across while browsing dA, which is why you may sometimes see deviations that are newer than ones in waiting, simply because they were recent uploads by nonmembers that I happened to come across and added them myself.
I hope that helps and I'm sorry about the wait!

A little question: What if I don't have a scanner?? I take pictures of my traditional drawings.

arosyks In reply to Iunya [2018-05-02 15:55:39 +0000 UTC]
Well if it's good enough image quality it should be fine. Just crop and adjust the contrast a bit and it could potentially look as good as a scan.

Yep. The first is too anthro for us but the second character has an example of what constitutes as "animal ears", and though it isn't the traditional look, she would still qualify. Thanks for checking!

Maybe I'm retarded, but I still don't understand if "Neko" is allowed in this group or not?
π: 0 β©: 1
arosyks In reply to LumenCircle [2017-05-29 03:09:11 +0000 UTC]
Nekomimi are allowed. That's what "neko" is short for, but "neko" also simply means "cat" in Japanese. The group doesn't allow animals, just humans with animal ears. Does that make better sense?Β

Would this be acceptable:Β sta.sh/05zspoznw4n ? I know she doesn't have ears, so she probably won't be accepted, but I'm just double checking.

arosyks In reply to Icytail [2015-08-12 16:50:55 +0000 UTC]
Thanks for checking. No, she has to have animal-like ears to qualify here. Sorry!

Quick question: are characters with plant-like ears and tails that represent rabbits acceptable? :'D If not, then it's fine. I'm just curious. Thanks!
π: 0 β©: 1
arosyks In reply to SakuraTenshi101 [2015-02-09 01:45:04 +0000 UTC]
I would say it depends on how closely the ears look like animal ears, shape-wise and stuff.Β

By hybrid do you mean that a kemonomimi can't have ( for example ) Cat ears and bird wings?
π: 0 β©: 1
arosyks In reply to GoldenClawstheEditor [2014-05-12 17:49:21 +0000 UTC]
No, a hybrid refers to characters that fall inbetween kemonomimi and anthro, and may have too many anthro qualities for us to accept. So if the bird wings are replacing the arms, we would not accept it, but if the bird wings were just "extras" (on the back like an angel/demon type character) then that would be fine! Does that make sense?

Yeah thanks they're "extras"!

arosyks In reply to SparkySama [2014-03-30 19:50:57 +0000 UTC]
Centaurs, no. As far as Satyrs, they would have to only have fur up to the knee, so a traditional satyr may not be allowed, but a deer kemonomimi with back hooves is okay.

arosyks In reply to SparkySama [2014-03-30 23:29:40 +0000 UTC]
I would suggest submitting those characters to a mythological creature group or somewhere that takes fantasy art in general, perhaps one of the following:
hooves-and-horns.deviantart.coβ¦
creature-concepts.deviantart.cβ¦
fantasy-males.deviantart.com/
mythology-creatures.deviantartβ¦

MoroMonster [2014-03-27 03:45:03 +0000 UTC]
Can i ask what is if the character HAS cat ears under a "hat/hoodie" that has also cat ears to fit the actual ones under?
I mean you can't see her real ears on the pic but her tail. Idk if that is allowed here
Thanks for the answer :3

arosyks In reply to MoroMonster [2014-03-29 02:20:04 +0000 UTC]
Fake ears on a hat or hood are allowed, and ears under a hood that protrude in an obvious way are also acceptable. Feel free to accept anything you are unsure of, so our mods can take a look and decide.

BellatheSkitty [2013-07-21 23:23:52 +0000 UTC]
Though it says "No animal masks or hats allowed", is it alright if one (mmmm such as myself) is able to submit a Kemonomimi with a mask, but the real ears are clearly visible? I'll link you to a picture showing an example of what I mean soon .3.

arosyks In reply to BellatheSkitty [2013-07-22 21:53:56 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, I'd have to see the picture to know for sure, but that sounds like it would be okay if we can see the real ears.

arosyks In reply to epicShadowdragon [2013-07-19 05:38:30 +0000 UTC]
Yes, that's acceptable. His animal ears are clearly visible and his markings are pretty natural looking (they look like freckles). Totally fine.

Ah, sorry for this again, but I noticed that the folders besides the featured is locked. Β I was wondering if it's okay to submit there or whether the other folders are not supposed to be locked or whether the mods will move the entries into the according folders, etc? ovoa

Ah, I don't know if this follows under the fourth rule of the "submission guidelines" but may we try to submit (kemonomimi) OCs that we have drawn on group apps? Β Also, I was wondering if there was a difference between the folder Pointy Ears 1 vs. Pointy Ears 2. Β Is one full vs. the other? Β Is there any difference to those two folders? Β Or is the second one just basically an overflow folder that P.E.1 couldn't hold?
Thank you for taking the time to read my questions and sorry for the bombardment of the silly and probably mindless questions. (^^)/

arosyks In reply to VVNova [2013-07-18 22:40:06 +0000 UTC]
I think I'd have to see the work in question. Do you have a link?
There's no difference between the folders. In the past, I had a distinction between pointy ears and side-pointy ears (on the side of the head as opposed to the top) but now it's just two have two folders for the most popular type of kemonomimi (the first folder might fill up soon, though).
