Maniac and I have a new spiffy set of creamy rules to present you regarding some things around these parts.
First and foremost, about the signature criticism threads.
As this is growing in a considerable amount, we realized it could be perfectly integrated in each one's gallery (as the sticky at the Galleries sub-forum indicates as well, anyways), Or you can post in the GFX General Discussion/Critique Sticky. This leaves space/encouraging other type of discussion in the agglutinating GFX forum.
The Graphics Workshop Sub-Forum will now become some sort of live archive for GFX resources/guides. Each and every technical/artistical problem can now be posted in the agglutinating GFX forum, where discussions such as news, problems (already described) and overall general chit-chat will take place.
The Graphics Shop Sub-Forum: Do not post threads in the shop forum, or any other gfx forum requesting for a sig. Go to one of the 100's of shops, and request there. Also, each GFX artist may only post one shop at a time.
Now, onto the subject of Ripping. If any of the mods catch you ripping someone elses work, no matter how small or what kind of Graphics it is, we will deal with it immediately, and harshly. So be warned.
That's all it for now, Maniac's doing all the cleanup as I speak, Natbong00 out.
Just to make things clearer, here is al ist of threads you can and cannot post.
Graphics General Allowed Threads
-Questions/help
-GFX News
-Alliance Requests Graphics General Prohibited Threads
-Single GFX Crtique threads
-"Anyone want to battle?" Threads
-1st Signature Threads
-Any other that go against the rules or anythign the mods see unfit to be here
Ripping This is one thing that you should NEVER do around the forums.
-I know that some users have some common sense about plagiarism and how that's going to hurt you for the rest of you life.
While others do not care about the rules and go, "Hey everyone! This signature doesn't have a name! Let's take it!"
I'm only going to warn you ONCE about Ripping. Ripping is a serious thing, and the MarioKartWii.com Staff will not be tolerated by this.
Ripping is when you are using someone's work without permission and claiming it as your own. It acts like Plagiarism, but for a different name in GFX. If we catch you ripping, we will punish you severely.
Guys, if you see a signature ripped by someone on here, PLEASE do not post about it. It's like feeding the troll. Report it by the Report button or by VM/PM.
If you can't make your own GFX, then don't try to. Just ask one of the GFX people in the shop. It's better off than ripping.

Reason: Adding a reminder about Ripping ~Wackii
I find that these 'rules' are going to far! The more rules, the more people break them. The more sub-forums the more topics posted in the wrong place. This means ALOT more work for little cause. My idea on this is don't fix what isn't broken. It was fine how it was.
Keep it simple guy's. Just because you have power to create rules doesn't mean you need to! This will just confuse people further! These won't even help anyone as you could get all this stuff in the GFX forum anyway!
