Stock Image Guidelines

Stock imagery is very popular on deviantART and we are proud of that, however, usable stock is getting buried among images that simply cannot be used and therefore must be weeded out by our Gallery Directors.

To avoid having gallery directors move your images - please ensure they follow these guidelines:

Size must be a MINIMUM of 600x600 pixels (excluding vintage portraits that are relatively small and of low quality)

No heavy distortion due to blur/noise/grain (this rule is case-by-case and at the gallery director's discretion for the usability of the image in question.)

No webcams or cell phone images

No sexually explicit imagery

Your adherence to these standards will enable us to maintain a usable gallery of images.

Should you have an questions about the Stock galleries, please direct them to the gallery directors : radioPooh , oibyrd and LawrenceDeDark
