Hi! I'm an aspiring artist. I just made a banner, and I was wondering how I can make it link to my art page?

@Kova All you have to do is surround the image with the url. Check out the example below: The image URL is [code]https://41.media.tumblr.com/94b31b29d6b2cfaddfb0779124cb3844/tumblr_nu6rjkQjkS1u2bprpo1_540.png[/code] The intended URL is [code]http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/art/1487883[/code]To get the URL, just go to the address bar and copy the URL. Now I paste the image and put the URL around the image. Like so: [code][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/art/1487883][img]http://41.media.tumblr.com/94b31b29d6b2cfaddfb0779124cb3844/tumblr_nu6rjkQjkS1u2bprpo1_540.png[/img][/url][/code] The result should be this: [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/art/1487883][img]http://41.media.tumblr.com/94b31b29d6b2cfaddfb0779124cb3844/tumblr_nu6rjkQjkS1u2bprpo1_540.png[/img][/url] The banner is now clickable.

Hello, I'm not certain if this has been asked yet or not, but, in the terms of use it states that no more than 5 tangible items may be sold for "real world currency;" I'm assuming they mean a physical item such as a t-shirt, mug, sticker, etc?

"No more than 5 units be sold of tangible merchandise utilizing the Flight Rising intellectual property (IP) be sold for "real world" currency. Making a piece of fan art or a craft project is fine, but making a business out of Flight Rising merchandise is not.

Tangible merchandise utilizing Flight Rising IP may be gifted, traded, purchased with Flight Rising currency, or raffled (provided the raffle does not utilize "real world" currency) beyond this 5 unit limit, but may not be sold for "real world" currency once the 5 unit limit is exceeded."

Would I be limited to taking on 5 art commissions for "real world currency?" Or would taking on more be fine, as it's not something that would be shipped out/worn/used? If it is just for the latter, would traditional art works be included in that, as sometimes they do get sent off to whomever commissioned it? Or would it be fine, so long as the artwork doesn't get shipped out to the commissioner? I'm fairly certain that just drawing any old FR related piece and selling prints of it would count towards the 5 item limit, I'm mostly curious about commissions and if one could continuously offer digital or traditional art commissions for "real world currency" or if they have to be sold for treasure/gems.

Sorry for the super long post, and bombarding you with questions!

@Kuraiame

It's no problem at all! However, I'm not really familiar with selling of how FR deals with merchandise so it might be more helpful if you talk to a moderator. c:

I'm sure they'd be happy to help if you message them! A list of moderators is located { here }.

@Kotomi or really anyone!

Are we allowed to make more than one art thread?

Say we want to reformat our art thread because we didn't have it set up as nicely as it could have been. Or simple for a change of set up. Or maybe just to start anew? Or, in my case, because I didn't realize you could do the "Reserved" thing for a forum topic without being considered spam.
