Hiya! I was wondering if Yin and Yang is considered religious and any apparel (for example background of the symbol) would get denied or approved? Thank you for your time!!

Hi! I had an idea for a wolf that i wanted to make apparel for for lore reasons but the bit about muzzles/cages/restricting movement is tripping me up. Would a broken chain on a leg (ex: Link wolf from twilight princess pictured below, note I would not be copying this, its just to convey the idea) be allowed or not? its not restricting the wolves movement like a muzzle or cage would but it also implies they were at one point so Im not entirely sure. Its fine if its not its not gonna hurt my plans, would just be neat if I could do it.

@Quiche re: resembling site art – is this fine?

For reference, this is the version I created (white is CA, black is wolf):

Actual Cozen (my CA intentionally covers over all areas of Cozen):

An overlay of my CA over Cozen:

If that will be rejected, I have a few ideas for modifications, though frankly, I'd prefer to go as minimal as possible. So if it would be rejected:

1. Would a stripe on the forehead be enough (like the common pattern on horses)?
2. If not, would adding a tail tip to the face stripe be enough?
3. If still not, would adding a star somewhere on the coat be enough?
4. If all of the above still aren't enough, what would be?

Edit: After looking through some other examples of CA with similar patterns, it looks like there's another one with just a muzzle gradient added as alteration, though it's named less similarly. So would just a rename work? Or a rename + forehead stripe?

Edit2: After looking at the CA ‘Dark Points’ which does a similar thing to mine but with slightly less coverage and more transparency + a slight muzzle gradient, I'm assuming the head stripe at the very least should be fine. So let me know whether the base version works or whether the head stripe is necessary, as well as on the name issue.

Hi Quiche! I'm not totally clear on the coverage rules, but would something with this type of coverage pass (looking at the art of the wig + redlines sketched over it, that total area)? Or would I have to split the tail and hair into separate apparel?

Also, if I used the art from the previous wig/tail I submitted but drew out more locks of hair to be the size depicted in the sketch, would that be enough of an edit to count as a new item? Or should I re-draw the whole hair?

Thank you!!

Hey Quiche! I wanted to know if this is too close to the inspiration (Sylveon, Pokemon) to pass by? I figure it is very obvious when you know the critter, but not so much that it's ripped off?

Please let me know if anything in the overall shape etc. needs to change; the colors will be variable and all of them are lengthwise stripes or fades.

Hi! I like to request some advice how I would be able to edit my design “bark.exe” to work with the “no plain text rule” while remaining the same purpose/vibe of the initial idea? My design's initial purpose was to invoke almost “creepypasta” vibes and computer hacking with cryptic messages and thought distorting the text and making them more glitchy would seperate it from just being “normal plain text” I also want to ask how I could possibly edit "wolf.exe". I have seen plenty of other skins that do double glitch lines get approved so was wondering why this one caused an issue? Is it the smoke? The glowing teeth? I'm kinda stumped on this one as I feel my other work soundlines has the same kind of line work but got accepted?

edit:

Decided to play with some filters for the wolf.exe and would any of these be acceptable?

Original: Different filter tests:

Just to say I'll be working on the above queries with my trainee over the weekend :)

Thank you! I'm also here to ask why the changes I made to my underbelly decor were unacceptable and how and what would need to be modified for it to be accepted. What, exactly, is the issue causing it to remain too similar to existing timber underbelly so I can modify it to be different?

Edit: It looks like this decor with a very similar coverage to timber unders like my CA was also approved yesterday. What is the difference between mine, theirs, and the site?

hi! i'm wondering if this big parka would be over the 80% coverage allowed?

Hello! I would like some clarification on the rule “Artwork may not alter the base art in any way. This includes altering the base lineart or shadows”, particularly in regards to anatomy altering apparel. If I wanted to replace a wolf's head with, say, a snake head (Akin to existing apparel "Terror Bird Cosplay) isn't that altering the base art?
