If you do not have any history of work yet, feel free to pause and return again when you have a month’s worth of public work.
Common acceptable places:
► Social medias: Twitter(w/work), Instagram, Tumblr – 1mo+ with activity
► Portfolios: Artstation, Deviantart, Personal website – 1mo+ with activity
► Platforms: Smackjeeves, Webtoons, Tapas, finished Kickstarters/IndieGoGos
Participation is highly encouraged here, so the more you contribute, the more channels you gain access to. “Role memberships are reviewed periodically to keep the server tidy.” See the header channels for more info on what goes where!
