Upload Policy
1. CONTENT GUIDELINES
1.1 Ratings
All content uploaded to the site must be appropriately rated into 4 different categories.
Anthro.Art has four tiers for rating content: Everyone, Teen , Adult , and Explicit.
The following guide is intended to help users rate their content appropriately, however the Anthro.Art staff reserve the right to act with moderator discretion if there is content found to be outside the scope of the guide as it is currently written.
As a general rule, if you are unsure if the content you are submitting belongs in one of two tiers, the staff recommends you upload it to the higher of the two. While we wish that we could answer every question about every aspect of this guide, we simply do not have the resources to do so.
