I recently posted a pixel art piece named Super Londo Bros !! @ 8/3/2013 9:22:30 AM. After finally being approved it entered the gallery for approx 10 - 20 minutes after which it was suddenly removed. I received the following message from an admin called Jalonso:
" We are very sorry to send back your beautiful mockup but we don't
allow collab work as it leads to chaos and risks opening the door to
grey areas we rather not deal with, k.
If Pixeljoint was only highly skilled pixelartists or by invitation then we would have collabs and encourage work like this.
I am sending a copy of this PM to Cyangmou and if either of you have any question please let me know. jal" Even though in the submission rules it states: "Give credit where credit is due. If you use someone else's lineart or are inspired by someone else's work, remember to credit them. If this is a collaboration, make sure to link to the appropriate collaborators if possible. If the image is a trace or relies heavily on specific photographic material, then provide a link to this material." I asked why collabs aren't allowed and pjers assured me that they were. The piece has been made inactive, so even if someone stumbles upon my gallery by accident they won't be able to see it. I've received no further feedback indicating whether it will be allowed or not, and I am anxious to know what is going on. Are there any mods out there that can help me and just clarify what I have to do now?
