New filtering system!

We have made some changes to our filtering system. The filter categories are the same, but your personal filter settings are now easier to use and understand. Go to your settings to have a look and adjust the filters to your preferences.

Changes for filters include:

  • New design for your personal filter settings
  • Characters and attacks in filter categories you have set to hide can no longer be accessed. To see them, change the filter to censor or show instead.
  • Extreme nudity and sexual themes are hidden for minors, they will be accessible when a user turns 18
  • With the update to the system, all user filters have been set to "hide" by default. Go to your settings to set your preferences.

Changes to the attack guide



  • The “Drawings” category has changed name to “Drawn / Painted”
  • Clean Color and Painting under the Coloring subcategory has been merged into Clean Color.
  • Added that painting a 3D printed version of a 3D model counts as a self produced texture. (In the 3D section.)
  • Clarified that question 8 under Crafts in the attack FAQ relates to crafts only.

This whole thing is so sad and gross. Mods bless y’all for the work you do and I’m sorry y’all have been so mistreated. Maybe one day this whole thing can be put in better hands.

takaia, please pay your staff for their hard work. stop being fucking greedy, people didnt donate just so you could use the money for whatever you wanted, they donated to help improve the site and to pay the mods
hiding isnt going to do anything, you need to actually address the situation and treat your staff properly and stop overworking them
sincerely, a pissed off user that just wants you to do the right thing

talk about a damned mess
Figured I put this here but for those out of the loop on the current situation regarding the site owner and the volunteer mods and staff, please read this document that has been put together (not by me) explaining all the allegations and issues. READ THIS GOOGLE DOC! The staff that have left ask you to continue to participate in the event but to boycott making any donations. They have worked hard to make sure the site runs as smoothly as possible until the end of the event so ya'll can still enjoy Art Fight despite the short comings that have come to light. It would only be in their vain if we boycott the entire event. 
SnowiMatsu same here honestly, did work on 2 revenges though at least so that's good but one of them was for a friend lol
I haven’t had the motivation to work on art this artfight for some reason.. and now I see my hunch was right and this is another reason. I feel really bad for not participating and revenging, though… but anyways, yeah, takaia should really stop hogging all the money and pay their staff for all their hard work already :/
Takaia, just know that if you hide, it doesn’t go away
Monday left me broken, Tuesday I was through with hoping
Wednesday my empty arms were open, Thursday waiting for love, waiting for love
Tak is panicking, I’m still waiting for the big announcement on the AF discord regarding the money eating situation, and she disabled her comments, but not on her characters tho

you guys realize that a majority of the issues doesnt lie in the fact they didnt pay their workers, for the most part mostly all of them were volunteers. The issues are the fact that theres only 20 staff for 200k+ people which leads to overworking of free volunteers, and the fact the only money the site receives is from donations which was promised to be used to make the site better... however it turned out to go to the owner instead of updating the site. That is the issue, stop talking about paying workers they werent workers for the most part. so erm
Aren't they volunteers?? Not employees?
Pay your god damn employees. They deserve it for the bullshit they've been put through.
