Mission Statement
This discord is a space for artists of all skill levels to create custom content, work together collaboratively, and improve their skills.Announcement: we are hosting our first theme night this Friday! Check out this post for more details.
I'd like to introduce everyone to the Custom Contentcord, aka the CCcord! This is an unofficial discord server meant to bring together custom content artists with the goal of working together collaboratively, improving, and having fun. Artists of all skill levels are welcome!
Our core values are...
Create Consistently: this discord serves as a space for artists to get into the habit of creating consistently through reinforcement and inspiration.
Improve Critically: we foster an environment where artists can receive constructive feedback without judgment and implement it to their discretion.
The Dialogue: artists are encouraged to have constructive and positive back-and-forth feedback with each other to create dialogue about their works.
If you'd like to join, please look through the rules of the server below and then post in the thread asking for an invite. I will message you a 1-time use invite.
Unofficial server disclaimer: this server is not affiliated with Pixel Cat's End or its admin/mod team. We cannot give official answers, and communication with staff is not possible in this server.
Rules
- Take constructive criticism in stride.
With our core values in mind, we ask that players sensitive to criticism think hard before joining. We welcome artists of all skill-levels (even those who have never touched an art program before!) with the goal of creating a positive space to work on our projects. We recognize that not everyone works and improves at the same pace, and ask that you recognize that, too.
- Do not bring drama into the server, regardless if it comes from onsite or offsite. Encouraging, egging on, or intentionally starting drama is not allowed.
- No 18+ content is allowed.
- Avoid venting and self deprecation. The occasional light hearted joke, or a vague statement (ie today sucked, show cute cats?) is fine, but frequent negativity brings down the server and isn't appropriate for the community.
- Respect everyone's pronouns, genders, and identities. Any phobia or intolerance will not be tolerated in this server.
- Constructive criticism needs to be exactly that- constructive. The point is to help an artist grow and offer differing perspectives, not to degrade them.
- Any helpers in the server (including myself!) cannot give official answers or weigh in on any moderation decisions onsite. Please be respectful of that boundary while interacting with helpers, and treat them just the same as any other player.
- Avoid spamming- posting the same thing over and over again (art progress updates are fine though!), excessive keysmashing and capslock, and writing nonsense messages is not permitted.
- You must have a valid (not suspended/banned) PCE account in order to be part of the server. Your username here must match your onsite username or have your username in parenthesis after a nickname/info. Your user ID may optionally be included.
Examples:
Good: Bear
Good: Bear #20
Good: Micah (Bear)
No: (Bear) Micah
No: ducky collector 100
- Avoid discussing contentious topics such as real world politics, religions, etc.
- Adhere to the PCE onsite ToS and community guidelines.
- Posting, sharing, or encouraging AI assisted/AI generated work is strictly prohibited.
- Always check someone's ping role before pinging them. If they do not have a ping role, err on the careful side and avoid pinging them at all.
Additionally, please keep in mind that you must spoil images containing body horror (extra limbs, many eyes, etc). I will largely leave this up to user discretion, but if you are asked to spoil something, please delete the original attachment and repost it as a spoiler asap. (edited)
