This concerns post post #187049, which was deleted for Reason: AI art with 4 toes. The original image is here: cdn.discordapp.com/attach...78160c03c1a519f311e8&

Though I could contest the deletion message, and argue the 5th toe appears to be buried in the mattress cover or whatever, I could also just reupload a cropped version of the image for all I care. My issue is that I don't see what guideline the post violated and am therefore asking the site moderators for some clarity as to what the invisible rules at play are that I should be aware of.

Once upon a time when we could still search/filter our own favorites, there used to be a "rules_and_policies" section that was easily accessible through the "Help" link below the top banner listing the rules when it came to manip and stuffs.

When the site migrated from the old version , said page has been copy pasted in hypnohub.net/index.php?page=wiki&s=view&id=326 which you can find by... going in the wiki, then searching for "*rules_and_policies*".

( i'm pretty sure there either a more obvious link to this page somewhere that i've somehow missed because I can't imagine why it could only be accessed in such a weird way or another more recent rules pages somewhere I've also missed. )

The content of said page is kinda old , so there's no mention of AI art, but my guess is that your AI art triggered the "Excessive anatomy issues" section and thus was flaged.

meanwhile i'm here wondering what even is the problem with a character with 4 toes, i mean characters with only 4 fingers isn't anything new in fact it's quite a common place, and hell on that very specific image it even looks good this way

The rules and policies section is a bit of a mess, I've been meaning to push forward a rewrite/cleanup which you can read here: hypnohub.net/index.php?page=wiki&s=view&id=1680 but so far there hasn't been much progress.

As for this specific post, I think the deletion is a bit excessive but I'm not about to start reversing other mods' decisions. Your best bet is to reupload it with the offending bits cropped out, the difference should be minimal.

More foot fetishists than hand fetishists?

ok, thanks for clarifying. I cropped and reuploaded.

The AI art guideline is the same as the guideline around Kisekae and other mass-producible images.

Namely, you have to visibly put in some effort of your own in some way (beyond simply providing the prompt to the AI). Using an AI image as a base for your own work (usually in the form of a story, or image-editing in some elements like spiral-eyes and/or a pendulum) is okay.
Simply uploading the AI art as-is, isn't - because it's so much quicker and easier to have an AI make the image, that it's a serious risk of flooding the website.

The thing is, this guideline is a little less "clear-cut" when it comes to AI art, as opposed to something like Kisekae, because it's not always clear whether an AI-generated image was ever touched by a human or not.
With something like Kisekae, which has a very distinctive art style of its own, it's really obvious when someone's done a thing that they can't get with Kisekae alone - but an AI could conceivably churn out basically anything.
