1. All submissions must be rated “safe” and may not have any tags that would be hidden or spoilered by the Default Filter.
2. All digital art submissions must be either a PNG or SVG file that has a transparent background. Traditional art submissions are an exception this this rule, but editing out the background and saving it as a PNG would be greatly appreciated.
3. Any 2D art style is welcome.
4. Images of a pony sitting or standing on all fours should be a minimum of 800px in height, head-to-hoof. 1200px is preferred. Images of ponies standing on their hind legs or in an unusual pose should be proportional.
5. Characters should be original art – images created using a “pony generator” or puppet are not allowed.
6. Original characters only. If you want to sneak a canon character in, plushies are magic ;)
7. Ponies should be a normal-sized show-canon species (pony, griffon, etc). Original species are welcome, so long as they’re in a believable show-style appearance. Sorry, but no humans, anthro, or EqG-style OCs, as well as adult dragons or sea serpants.
8. Characters should have a believable, cannon-esque appearance (no insane clothing, large accessories, etc).
9. Characters should be posing for the camera and not doing anything too overly insane (but having some fun is allowed).
10. Winged characters should be standing/sitting on the ground. Please do not draw a character flying unless you have been giving permission first. See below for more information about having a character flying in the image.
11. If you own multiple OCs, you may submit up to two of them, but they have to be together in a single image file. Please do not submit more than two of your own OCs, or two separate images of “solo” OCs. This rule applies to who owns the OC, not necessary who drew it.
12. Submissions may not have any watermark or signature that obstructs the image.
13. Characters should not be offensive in design, likely to cause intentional controversy, be created with the intent to troll, or otherwise have a negative impact on the final image.
14. Due to the nature of this project, all submissions to the collaboration are considered immune to DNPs and takedown requests. If you’re submitting an OC drawn by someone else, please be sure to verify that this is alright with the artist first. Likewise, if you are submitting an OC owned by someone else, please ensure they are ok with it (and not already drawing/having someone else draw their character).
    15) Characters should be drawn completely from head-to-hoof. Please do not crop the image, or create an image that it cut off at the waist, legs, etc.
15. OCs belonging to people who have been permanently banned from Derpibooru (especially multiple times) are not accepted.
