Topic: What is allowed as profile pic?

Posted under General

So i wanted to make myself a profile picture, but will it get deleted if its not related to furry stuff? I've seen here stuff like senator Armstrong, memes unrelated to furries or pictures of helicopters. Are there different rules when it comes to profile pictures?

Several of the posts you have mentioned are grandfathered content that would not be accepted under current standards.
Every post must be able to stand on its own as a furry-themed art piece, or must have its existence actively justified by a relationship to a suitable post.
Compare my current avatar to its alternate version, for instance.

It has to be something that would be allowed here, even if it wasn't for a profile pic. See the uploading guidelines, if you're unsure what's allowed here: https://e621.net/help/uploading_guidelines

Note: A long time ago, the guidelines were poorly enforced, so old posts are sometimes still allowed to stay, even though they wouldn't be allowed to be uploaded today.
