I have a question, due to a recent deactivation of several of my images on the Balto Source site.
With a render, is it against the rules to do any of these to a submission on the Balto Source site:
- Use a background image that is not from any of the three Balto films [as in from another animated movie or TV series]?
- Use a character from another movie [Fox and the Hound, something Disney, or any other animated film or TV series that isn't AS-related] as the base for a rendered character?
The site rules for sending fan-images do not state any of these as not allowed, yet my images that did use other backgrounds and other characters as bases were deactivated. I am seeking a solution and a final answer for this. Thank you!

well i must say i'm not that active on sending fanarts as much as i
used to, but i think i still have all the right to give y oppinion as
i'm still part of the site As we already had a similar problem with mods making their own rules up.. i decided to only take as official rules the ones that are featured on the "send to the site" or the ones that are on the forums, otherwise is nothing valid for me, i've just checked the official rules and it doesn't say anything neither about backgrounds {nothing but not to use photo backgrounds } neither about characters from other series, so if i were you i'd send a polite message to teh mod who deactivated your images and show a screenshot of the official rules which are featured on the "send to the site" section, or contact steet and clear everything up by the way, i'd like to applogise for all the typos and spelling mistakes... |

Sakujo> well, said, it always has been that way, there are people who
are allowed to post nearly anything but others get their creations
deactivated for that. I thought that it´ll change with the new set of
mods but appearently it didn´t. |

Other backgrouds are allowed as long as they are not photos. I do it
alot(mostly because Balto doesn't have all the scenery I want to show)
and no one said it's agains the rules. Using images from other movies are not allowed(stupid rule I know. How many huskies and wolves can there be in Nome?), but I saw renders that were using images from other movies and they werent deactivated. Looks like some people are just more equal than others... |

But where is it stated? SHOW ME. There is no rule visible on the site
that even says that. Heck, I think as long as a Balto character [or BS
fan-character, etc] is in the render, it should be allowed to stay.
There should be some exceptions, else people will be making this site
BORING as HECK. ...OR they should change the darn rule and freaking SHOW IT so that I can leave my good render to a place that cares to accept them the way they are. Also, pardon my caps. This just really bothers me to high heaven. Thanks. - Juuchan17 |
Also, ranting here won't solve anything. PM a mod or Steet himself (good luck with the latter though, he rarely responds to us mods).
