What you need to do

• Be sure to have a real creation to submit, all coming from you, based on a reflection, a concept, a real work,
• Only submit your best completed work, with a very good result, on both aesthetic and technical skills,
• Always ask yourself what you would think of your work if you were not its author before publishing, will you exhibit you creation in a gallery, a museum, or in an great Art center, will you pay for it yourself?
• Don't choose the easy way, be clearly involved in your artistic statement, which must be original, unique and personal,
• In series, don't add several slightly different versions of the same artwork, select only the best,
• Pay attention to your framing, point of view, as well as your foreground and background, composition and staging,
• Take care of your work quality, tonalities, densities, color renderings or shades of grays, finishing,
• Stay natural in your presentation, avoid the easy effects that are made possible by paint software packages (blurs, trails, grain, texture layers, false old or instant film, etc ...),
• And finally, describe clearly your approach, statement or process to facilitate the understanding of your work.

What you need to avoid

• Consider Art Limited as a general audience site, an image bank, a stock image site, a royalty free image library, or cliparts agency,
• Post artwork or reproduction that weren't created by you, even if you own rights,
• Display descriptive reality (reportage, documentary, journalism, science, product, fashion, wedding, commercial) unless you do it with uncommon aestheticism,
• Photographing or creating something you've found "beautiful or nice" doesn't make it an art masterpiece, this means nothing for us, please argue,
• Cute, personal, standard family, party, traveling, wedding or special private moments pictures. We are sure you are in love, but this is the wrong place for it,
• You enjoy "funny" and "cute" postcards or posters, our references are rather in Art libraries and major international museums,
• Upload pictures that are too small. (for example less than 500 pixels wide as the smallest side),
• Add signs, use a discreet watermark, done with a sans serif font (Helvetica, Arial, ...),
• Submit wide borders, postcard or poster layouts, it restricts the view and degrades site's visual display, it won't be featured,
• Post a lot of images, our system keeps consistency of your results, lowest ones degrading the perceptive approach of the algorithm,
• Artworks which have already been seen many times before are usually not reviewed unless they are truely amazing,
• Consider paying members will benefit from corrupted moderators or editors, these fees concern only additional services.

Any images that don't fit these rules could received a fringe selection by Art Limited moderators, at our discretion and convenience to keep a high editorial line.
