POSTING GUIDELINES for {Gallery}

[Debb Cozzi]

We are an "Open Gallery Site." We welcome your gallery posts using any and all product, whether it is from the Guild or other sites. You may hot-link products in your list of credits if you so desire. It is understood that you are posting in a public gallery owned by the Digital Scrapbook Artisan Guild. We reserve the right, at our discretion, to feature gallery posts on our home page and in promotional materials promoting the site.


Please try to keep the following in mind when posting in our gallery. Our desire is to foster a spirit of community. To that end we discourage the use of our gallery as a "drop and run" gallery. Obviously there is no way to effectively police this or put any type of qualitative measures on this. However, it is our hope that if you post in our gallery you would also become an active participant at the site either through your activity in posting comments on other layouts or posting in the forum. An active community works to the benefit of all who choose to participate on this site.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in this matter.

Thank you for keeping this clear, Debb. Every site is just a little different and it's good to post the rules occasionally.

Great! Glad to know I can post all my layouts here. NP on not hot linking...

Thanks so much for providing us a place to come, chat and share art...regardless of where we get our "supplies". I think I'm gonna like it here

I have had a few questions about our posting guidelines and wanted to clarify them. I think it will help if I share the intent of our gallery which is to help people learn and grow from one another. As a matter of courtesy we ask that you not use the Guild gallery simply as a place to advertise "outside" product; there are other sites available for that purpose. We continue to welcome all postings regardless of the product used and the guidelines listed above still apply.

Thank you for your understanding.

This was so easy to find! I was wondering about the guidelines and thought I might have to wander about to find them...not so! I am off to create and post.

I like to share all my layouts here, and it's nice to be able to do that. Everyone here is so supportive and really make me look at my layouts in different ways. It's so nice to get something other than "beautiful layout," too - the constructive criticism and encouragement here is stellar!

I really try to keep what I post here free from any links, but if you ever find any in my gallery posts, just shoot me a PM and I'll correct right away as it would unintentional.

I just read this again and sorry if I been posting wrong
I will now just add the name and kits. No more linking. Sorry!

I've been looking for a place like this. I get my supplies from all over, so it's fantastic to have somewhere accepting of all digital suppliers. And it's a relief not to have to hotlink back to every. little. item. I use! LOL.

I've been looking for another gallery whose members actually look at the pages posted and offer real comments, instead of the "cute page" that is so common nowadays. Don't get me wrong, any comment is welcomed, but when they are all the same it is disheartening. Granted, not all pages can be stellar, but each deserve consideration.
