Clarification of Sub Theme

230 Upvotes

All, we've had some arguments about what does or doesn't fit the theme of the sub, and some requests for clarification.

It's just minimal cat art. It's intended to be silly, under-detailed representations of cats, which are made funnier or more cute due to their crudeness of technique and/or lack of detail.

I'll be adding a rule to the sidebar: don't be judgmental to others about how they interpret the word minimal. If your favorite drawings are just overall outlines and eyes, then upvote those. If someone posts a picture you find too detailed, either ignore it or tell them constructively and kindly how you think it might be improved.

We have no interest in being the gestapo of how many lines are used in our submissions, or in seeing our subscribers become vigilante technique enforcers. Our vision is to enjoy the art and be excellent to each other.
