Am I allowed to post in art forum?

If I'm really bad at art? One of the rules says "Remember that any new thread in the Art Forum must be worthy of the attention of our talented pool of artists and moderators."

But I'm really bad at art, as hard as I try. My art probably ISN'T worthy. Would I get banned for posting my bad art?

Nah, don’t worry too much about that rule. It was added a long time ago when people were creating a lot of ‘junk’ threads with intentionally crappy art just to be annoying.

If you’re putting legit effort into it, no matter what your skill level, you should absolutely post your art in the art forum! Some of the best topics are the ‘showcase threads’ where you can see their progression from beginner to crazy good. Who knows, if you keep at it, yours could rank right up there with ‘em, so... DO IT!

Okay, whew. That makes me feel so much better. Thanks!

I probably should have checked your art before I replied. Now that I have I need to add:
You’re being waaaay too hard on yourself! It’s more than worthy! *thumbs up*


Of course you can, you're free to post any art you make. But! With that being said, you're gonna need to have thick skin because you'll get critiques. If you're not ready for that, then it wouldn't be wise.

So don't be afraid to post your art as long as you're comfortable with getting feedback-- it's not a matter or worthy or not worthy since there's artists of all skill levels who post on there.

You should perhaps also consider that a great opportunity to gather tips from more experienced artists.
