FAQ


Frequently Asked Questions
How do I search past updates?

If you're looking for a specific celebrity (or a mod post) check out our memories. If you're looking for appearance specifics or character recommendations, check out the tags in the side bar.

Do I need to tag my entries?

If the tags you need have already been created, we'd love you if you added them yourself. However, if you don't know how, or you're missing one or all of the tags you need, one of the mods will take care of it for you.

What do you mean by 'PB' icon?

PB icons are icons made for roleplaying purposes. Generally, they're textless and fairly straight-forward in terms of cropping and design. The emphasis is on the expression or mood, rather than on how many clever brushes and textures you can use. They are not bases and PB icon makers usually ask that you don't modify them without permission. Check the rules of the individual icon makers to see what they allow.

Who do I credit?

Please don't credit this community! When you follow the link in a post, it will take you to an icon maker's own community or journal. Usually, they'll have clear rules about how they want credit to be given. If you really can't find the rules, crediting by the icon maker's user name is usually a safe option.

Who can join the community?

Everyone! We're not at all elitist - our ideal would actually be to have every PB maker on scribbld, GJ and IJ updating here. Every member is given automatic access to posting, so you can begin updating straight away. If you're not an icon maker, you're still more than welcome to join - we'd love to have you here.

May I post a request?

No, sorry. If you're looking for icons of a particular person, we suggest you check out find_icons. If you don't have any luck there, several of our affiliates are open for requests.

Can I post my icons here, rather than just linking?

Sorry, but no. We ask that you simply link to your icons elsewhere.

What form should my posts take?

For ease of archival and to make things clearer for anyone looking for icons, we ask that you use the following template:

Can I post links to an icon post that can be found somewhere other than scribbld?

Definitely!

Can I post links to all of the icons I've made so far?

No. If you've just joined, we don't mind you updating with sets you've made in the last couple of days, but apart from that, we do ask that you use the community as it's intended - an update community.

Can I post an update of someone else's icons?

Only with the explicit permission of the icon maker. We'd prefer makers to post their own updates where at all possible, though.

My icons are friends-locked. Can I still post updates?

Sure! What we ask, though, is that you indicate a post is friends-only when posting your link - just a "(friends only)" after the link itself would be perfect.

How many updates can I make in an individual post?

We'd prefer you made one post per update, as this is the best option for archival purposes?

How many updates can I make each day?

You can make as many posts as you like, as long as there is a different PB update in each post. (In other words, if you make two posts of Daniel Radcliffe icons in one day, we ask that you combine both posts in the one update post.)

How do I show that I've made more icons of a certain person?

As long as it's not on the same day, just make a new post. If you've updated your old icon post, instead of making a new one, it's worth indicating in your update post that you've added extra icons to an old post - something along the lines of "Daniel Radcliffe - added 444 icons".

Do you have a minimum number of icons per update?

Again, we're not restricting this. We do, however, ask that you use a bit of common sense. Only one icon? Not really what people are after ;)

Can I affiliate with you?

Sure! Just go here and follow the directions on that post.

What if I have a complaint/want to speak to a mod privately?

You can find our contact info in this entry.

What if I have a question that isn't answered here?

Just ask in a comment below and we'll get back to you ASAP. If it's something that applies to everyone, we'll edit the FAQ to reflect the answer.
