I have recently uploaded some of the images I used for my on-going YouTube "Liminal" series to the Art portal, only to have them pulled off the platform a handful of hours later. Apparently, Newgrounds does not like photography, unless it depicts handmade works you make yourself. Realizing it was an overlook on my part, I would like to apologize for the inconvenience. I will upload those pictures somewhere else. They will be on my Discord for now.
Thanks for your support and stay tuned.

@ForgottenDawn I suppose they could be shared as a status or news update? I hope a photography section gets added sometime. As long as it's moderated like the other portals, there shouldn't be too much issue with it becoming some kinda imgur or anything.
Probably not gonna happen since their argument is based on emphasizing "handmade works", even though my photoshopped AI-generated 3D fractals are perfectly fine. Yeah, maybe I'll add them as a news post, that sounds like a good idea.
@ForgottenDawn Dang... well I guess NG has its focuses. Still a bummer tho, as you said.

I liked those, I just didn't really know what to say. Not that I'm much for being good about reviewing non-photos either. I guess I feel like I need to be "qualified" somewhat to judge photography... lol

I'm just kind of bummed I can't post such content here, especially since I was getting some interactions and people interested—I was asked to share them in the first place. The least I can do is post them elsewhere, but I don't know where yet. I guess I'll keep you posted.
