Hey everypony!

Yesterday, we had a discussion about shipping pictures. To be more accurate where to put them. Currently they are being submitted to the "Group" or "Mane Cast Group" folders. And kissing pictures were submitted into the "Mature" folder.

But we wanted to draw a line on what is a shipping and what is not.
Therefore, from now on any picture that contains ponies kissing and other romantic themes (dancing, nibbling, cuddling in bed etc) should be submitted to the "Shipping" folder. Other pictures that involve sexual acts but go a bit further should be still submitted to the "Mature" folder, but they need to follows dA's rules, such as:
FAQ #12: deviantART doesn't allow 'Hate Art', 'Hate Speech' or 'Hate Propaganda', what is this?
FAQ #60: Do you allow "Adult", explicit sexual or pornographic content on deviantART? How about linking off site?
FAQ #305: Is posting 'Adult' oriented artwork alright if I censor it first?
FAQ #565: You prohibit the submission of 'pornographic imagery'; what do you consider this to be?
If you need more help with the rules, search the dA's FAQ section or contact the Help Desk. But please select a suited category: Copyright & Etiquette Administration (CEA): Policy Inquiry.

To sum it up, if ponies are in a relationship and the picture clearly shows it then you submit it to the "Shipping" folder.

But then again, there are pictures that for example have nose boops. Those can fall under the category of being a shipping and not being. This is a matter of opinions. That's why the author of the picture should clarify whether the boop is just a friend thing, so to speak, or intended to be romantic.


Thanks to =Infinitoa for the suggestion!
