Art Requirements for Work Submissions
Art Requirements for Work Submissions
All art and writing, to count towards growth of plants, evolution of animals or earning of coin rolls/registers, must appear as if effort was put into them. They must have:
At least flat colors and a background for visual pieces or minimum 500 words for a written piece
The resident be included.
No copy and paste elements are allowed. (Ex- if growing mushrooms, each mushroom must be drawn uniquely.)
RPs can count toward work pieces, but only the member who is involved with the job can submit and earn produce for the work piece. Both members will still earn PD for the roleplay.
One benefit of marriage is the allowance of collaboration on work-related pieces. However, only one member of the couple will get the work produce. (ex. Spouse A owns a farm, Spouse B owns a ranch. Spouse A makes a sketch of their strawberries, Spouse B colors the sketch. Spouse A would submit the piece because they own the farm, and Spouse A would get the strawberries.)
