It’s already stated in the rules of the club that overusing furry-doll-maker pictures is suggested against but in the light of the tons of base-pictures posted by LorMel I felt this was appropriate.
The club-pictures are for people that actually do their own work, and don’t post things they traced, especially when the bases of those traces are incredibly common or even bases of recolors (AKA someone else’s art).
I’ve put up with bases for quite a while now, as we all have, but after the continuous spam of this on the club, it’s become apparent to me that these are not helpful in the least.
Bases should only be there to help improve one’s ability to draw in specific forms, or when purposely imitating another person’s style of art. They aren’t for excessive use, nor are they meant to replace one’s artistic progression. Relying on bases only limits, or even decreases, one’s art-skill, and has much less of a personal touch.
If bases are too continue, I say that we have that done in a separate club. There are clubs that are for recolors already out there, and that is where bases and doll-maker-pictures belong. They AREN’T your artwork, they are you adding your details on someone else’s base. It is much better to see a terrible drawing that someone can go “I drew this myself” than seeing something amazing that only had a partial amount of the poster’s actual mind in it. All or nothing.
It is unprofessional to have all the recent pictures be sloppy colored-in versions of drawings that, let’s face it, are incredibly Mary-Sue-like, and have been dated for years now. The “stay away from her” picture with the large-breasted girl clinging to the male pointing at us, the sonic-x-based bases, the sexy-pose bases, the sexy-Amy-Rose bases, the blowing-kiss-base, the winky-girl base, etc. We’ve had these around for years and they don’t help.
But in this case, it’s not just the problem of there being bases posted, but that there are so many of them. A limit of pictures by one person per day needs to be set. Every picture deserves to be seen at least one day long before it’s shoved out of sight from the eight on display of the main page. Let’s face it most people don’t go past that. They stick to the main page and only click on pictures they see immediately.
If you have a group of connected pictures that need to be posted together, please announce as such ahead of time so that others who are thinking about posting pictures will know whether they want to risk their own images not being seen before yours are. If you have a large amount, please do your best to split it into pieces that are branched out to every other day if possible, but I would more so suggest the group of pictures be posted all at once so it is over with. After that, if new pictures are created and a new wave is ready, control the urge to keep going.
This isn’t something I’m going to enforce immediately. This is just a problem I’m bringing up that I want feedback on. I want to know what this community thinks so that we can come to a conclusion. Is everyone else just as bothered by this as I am? Are there different solutions people have? I want to know what you all think and what you want to do.

Hercul retired from he warrior status to live on as one of the dragon elders.
Hercul is a very wise dragon with knowledge that no other dragon seems to understand besides his grandson, Drakero. He can be intimidating upon site, but he is actually a kind man. He loves to light incenses in his house, but dislike the taste of cherries.
Despite his age, and not being as good as he was in his prime, Hercul can hold his own in a fight. Like his son Almaldo, and grandson, Drakero, Hercul is freakishly strong. He can bench press up to 20 tons.
(In other words, Hercul don't play)
I have to use a friends computer to type this because my other one if filled with viruses....I wont be continuing the Virus9073-AD story until it's fix or I get a loner laptop from the library. So if you are reading it please forgive me for not sending chapter two yet. Also, I also curse writers block for getting me stuck on one particular part of the story so If I do get a loner, it may take me a little while to figure out something to write. I guess it's just school that stresses me out. Haha!
