Hey Wolfhomies!

With the rising popularity of ToyHouse & other platforms, and the rising amount of Art Theft being attempted, the Art Review Team want to send an important reminder that ToyHouse links are not an acceptable form of permission for Premade Poses. If you are linking a premade that is uploaded to ToyHouse, you will also need to provide proof of purchase or link to the specific topic/site with your username listed.

If you are linking Custom Artwork, please do your research. While this seems like an extra step, we ask that you do this again to respect the artist who created the work. In the event that there is no Terms of Service and you are linking a custom from ToyHouse directly, be sure to include the direct link to that particular image, or screenshot of the artist giving you permission. It is becoming increasingly problematic that we are solely receiving links to the gallery. While that may be easy for you to navigate, we are unfamiliar with each individuals' characters and some galleries have large quantities of art that can be difficult to sift through.

Below is what we have listed for our preferred method(s), as well as what's acceptable & unacceptable:
Preferred Methods:
  • Wolfhome Forum Direct Links
  • DeviantArt (original art piece submission with permission in description)
  • Screenshots (Listing clear permission/ transactions)
  • FurAffinity (screenshots with permissions are acceptable)
  • Discord screenshots stating which Wolfhome user has permission to use the artwork.
Acceptable (with direct links to artist/clear permission(s) attached):
  • Sta.sh
  • ToyHouse Links (only if the original artist did not upload anywhere else)
  • Art Fight
  • Social Media Platforms (including but not limited to Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc..)
Unacceptable:
  • Personal ToyHouse Gallery
  • Personal Stash Gallery
  • Art Fight (screenshots with permissions are acceptable)
  • Discord screenshots without the artist stating which Wolfhome user has permission to use the artwork.
This will be enforced moving forward. If proper research and links are not provided, the pose will be declined.

Thank you for your time and understanding!

Best Regards,
The Wolfhome Art Review Team

We are excited to provide the user base with free subscription week for Halloween! Please keep in mind the above guidelines when using permission links from other platforms!

If using TH links, you must link directly to the pose you are uploading. There are many characters that have a large amount of art, and we would not like to sift through it all to find the one pose you are trying to upload. If this is something you guys would like to see changed, definitely reach out to any Alpha but please keep in mind process time for poses will increase!

If using Stash links, you are required to provide the public submission for your pose. The only time a Stash link is accepted is when the artist themselves provide you with a Stash link with explicit permission stating your WH chat username.

I hope this clears up any confusion surrounding what's acceptable! As always, if you guys have any questions or are still un-sure please do not hesitate to reach out to an ART member!
