Keyword Policy

This Keyword Policy forms part of the site rules which all users of Inkbunny are expected to abide by.

Why Keywords are Important

Keywords are very important as an essential part of organising any large archive of artistic media.

They help users find your work when they are searching for it specifically or when searching for a general theme. Keywords also help users avoid your work when there is content they do not wish to see.

To promote the most useful and usable archive of artistic work, we insist on a minimum standard of keywording on every submission uploaded to Inkbunny.

Adding good keywords to your submissions takes just a few seconds per upload and adds value to both your collection and to the entire archive as a whole.

Adding Keywords as the Submission Owner

Minimum Required Keywords

As the submission owner your are obliged to add the following minimum of keywords to your uploads where applicable:

• Genders of individuals that appear in the submission. Eg: male, female, herm.

• Species of individuals that appear in the submission. Eg: fox, rabbit, raccoon.

• Keywords describing the essential themes portrayed in the image. Eg: macro, inflation, cub

It is especially important that you add keywords describing themes that you think users may commonly wish to avoid seeing.

Further Keywording

Adding more keywords than the bare minimum required by these rules would be ideal, but we do not insist on it. To make your artwork easier to find we suggest you also keyword:

• Art style or media used. Eg: traditional, charcoal, digital
