April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.

We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberI don't think that anyone cares about the background compared to the central plan.
however, if drawing the background is a problem, then you can do it with alternative methods: stylized photo, screenshot from game, or a simple defocus-blur

MemberThis is really good! But if the background bothers you, you could alternatively use an AI generated image for a background, I know of several people who do that to great effect.

MemberSo we are gonna ignore the fact that that shaft is long enough to go the long way around the indoraptors leg? That’s what we’re doing, right? Because if so, there needs to be a follow up with blue taking it, same position and everything.
