(Sorry to step in, but I just wanted to clarify things.

There's literally nothing wrong with the art had it been legitimately reffed, we just gave you a heads up about it! We clearly explained that we didn't want to take it down had it been genuine, so we checked in with you. Our rules about tracing, bases, (including frankendolling poses) and how that differs from referencing art has not changed in years.

There's no reason that should deter you from posting your own art! You should be proud of your art and willing to post it - and shame about your creativity is not something we encourage on the Wikia. We're all here aiming to grow and improve in our creative works. Your art is great, and I would personally love to see more of it.

Even if someone has traced, that's not exactly a "bad" thing. In fact, it's actually a very good technique for improving your own art. We just cannot allow traced art on the Wikia because of copyright-related things. Please don't use this as a way to imply that the moderation here is trying to squash your creativity and willingness to share it in anyway, especially when you've been very open in being able to share your process! <3)
