I need help!

Our current policy with fanart and fanfiction is that if you don't see a gallery for your entry, you need to put the entry in other fanart or other fanfiction and then put in a request for a new gallery. So we have our trusty jr mods going through the Other Fanart gallery finding out what anime each artwork belongs to and then putting in a request for a new gallery. The thing is I'm finding myself creating a lot of new galleries that may never have more than one artwork entry. What do you guys think I should do? Should we just leave all of that art in Other fanart? I'm thinking maybe we should create a few galleries like so rather than creating a new gallery for every single series/show:

  • Misc Anime
  • Misc Video Games
  • Misc Movies
  • Misc Tv Shows
  • Misc Literary works
I've seen a lot of people doing artwork based on literary works like books and such and it's my stance that for this site it is ok to put artwork based on a literary piece in the Original gallery rather than Other Fanart because most of what you've drawn is actually original. It's not based on any visual work. But perhaps it would be best if we created a Misc Literary works gallery.

Of course if someone puts in a request for a gallery and there is actually enough artwork for it (like say at least 5) then I can create a new gallery for it.

How do all of you feel about this? Does this sound good?

Well to give you a tip off and an example, I just drew a fanart from this anime called FLCL.

I mean it's only 6 episodes long and it's till pretty obscure. There's really no need to make an entire gallery space for just one or two pieces of fanart.

I think MISC-ing stuff is a perfect idear, dear. [emoticon]
