Creature Ideas

I've been meaning to post some creature suggestions/ideas for awhile now, but where exactly do I submit them?

Also, does EggCave copyright the design?

I'd really appreciate it if a moderator would answer me.

You can post your ideas and other stuff on the contact us page! Its at the botton of every other EggCave page😊

No, they always get re-painted😊

Ah, alright, thanks.
I mean the copyright to the design, the creature itself, not the coloring or the picture itself, but the anatomy/body/head/feet/legs/etc. of the creature.

Usually if you submit anything to a website the site owns it (like neopets), so I think they'd copyright it.

Oh oops😋

Once the user submitted egg is redesigned by the artist and released on Egg Cave, you more or less gave the creature to the site. You may be credited for coming up with it, but Egg Cave basically owns it I believe.

So to use an Egg Cave creature in any work of fiction, even if it was created by you, should wisely be acknowledged as copyrighted from Egg Cave.

But of course, asking Ian about anything regarding this is a good idea. He's always open to your thoughts and ideas.

When you come up with a creature, do you automatically get one if it is accepted?

Not to my knowledge, no. But you can always ask Ian.
