The Black Pearl
You need at least 60 days of seniority and 5 karma points to use the Black Pearl.
We want to clarify a few points regarding the proposals for the Creation Space.
Golden Apple
Using shadows:
You can use shadowing, but please keep it very light so that the images will fit with most backgrounds.
Cut out your edges more:
When we place the coats on a dark background, in some cases, there are stray light colored pixels around the drawing. This makes it impossible to use on a dark background.
Take a look at your coat on a white and on a black background, to get rid of any leftover smudges or pixels. Also, look a little further away at just the outline. Often, the coats have a smudge around the corners or along the border of the image.
Use the smudge or blur tool sparingly:
It's a pity to see a coat that has been worked on and then filtered with a blur filter, and it comes out all smudgy. It's also a pity to see a coat with smudge marks on one side and not the other.
Be careful when reformatting an image:
Sometimes we get drawings of "sausage horses" because the file has been altered, and the horse has been squashed or pulled in another direction. Also, avoid making your resolution too low and giving the picture a pixel art look.
Helios' Ray
Using brushes is allowed:
They can be used, but not in excess.
Seeing the same tree used four times in different backgrounds is starting to feel a bit repetitive, and it's also unfair. Since the aim of the Creation Space is to create things with your own hands, not to make photo manipulations. The same thing goes for photos.
Painting, blurring or smudging landscape pictures:
This is prohibited, and going forward, we may permanently ban players from the Creation Space for this.
Check the perspectives:
Please remember that the horse needs something to stand on. It's rather unusual to see a picture of a beautiful pond in the background while the horse appears to be floating in the middle of it.
The same goes for outer space, clouds, etc. The background should be usable for everyone, not just the Pegasus. Also, make sure the horses won't look like giants in the middle of a forest when you draw trees or other items.
Rules
Plagiarism is forbidden:
Plagiarism is taking someone else's work and passing it off as your own.
Respect the author's rights: don't steal images off the Internet; don't trace photos; don't use the basis of someone else if they have not given their authorization, preferably publicly.
You can draw inspiration from a style, a movement, or a coat without merely copying it. Use your imagination to express your unique personality and create something original.
Here's a quick recap of the things NOT to do in the Creation Space:Players who submit an artwork not created by themselves, AI-generated, or plagiarized will be permanently banned from using the Black Pearl.
All the other rules still apply. Players who do not follow the rules are exposed to sanctions.

- Hi I have some questions about submitting a black pearl design. I used to play the game years ago but can't remember the details and my seniority is too low to see anything about it but I'm curious for the future.
I seem to recall you could purchase black pearls from the black market. how much are they?
how many designs can you submit at once?
if your design is voted for what do you get?
if your design isnt voted for do you get the black pearl back or do you loose it?
thanks

Hello everyone,
The main topic has been updated, and the topic rules have also been clarified.
Thank you and have fun playing Howrse!- I just created this account like 3 weeks ago, wish I didn't have to wait for another month to submit my work
Why is that period so long?

Hello,
Adding a seniority requirement prevents players from creating multiple accounts to be able to submit creations.
For example, if a player gets temporarily banned from the Creation Space, they can't bypass the ban by creating a new account and using it to submit creations.
