'''ArtSpots''' is a non-adult [[anthropomorphic]] art gallery that showcases the best work from anthro artists with an easy to use and navigate [[Wikipedia:Web_2|Web 2.0]] based interface. It also has a focus on artistic improvement, helping potential applicants get up to skill for reviews.

== Features ==
ArtSpots has some features that make the site more useful to artists and patrons alike.

=== Commission Tracking System ===
As part of their ArtTools, ArtSpots has a commission tracking system that allows artists to organize and display a to-do list of commissions, including all the relevant information associated with them including descriptions, due dates, payment, and a work-in-progress image. It also allows users of the site to directly commission artists, send/track payments through PayPal and view a list of outstanding commissions or each one individually.<ref>[http://www.artspots.com/forum/topic/130 Introducing ArtTools!]. December 10, 2006 post by Seurat Cheetah on the ArtSpots Forum News group.</ref>

Users can also see if an artist is offering commissions or sort the artist list by those who are.<ref>[http://www.artspots.com/forum/topic/179 What's that being said?]. January 6, 2007 post by Babbage Cheetah on the ArtSpots Forum News group.</ref>

=== Drag and Drop Favorites Organization ===
Like an operating system [[Wikipedia:GUI|GUI]], the favorites enable users to drag and drop images into custom-created folders for personal organization.<ref name="folders">[http://www.artspots.com/forum/topic/151 The Favorites are FIXED]. December 22, 2006 post by Seurat Cheetah on the ArtSpots Forum News group.</ref>

=== "Fetch Folders" (Smart search folders) ===
A folder can have a search term attached to it, so that each time it is viewed it can run a check and add images that fit the search criteria. Images can be removed and will not be added again, plus new images can be added like regular folders.<ref name="folders" />

=== Emailed Comments ===
Similar to LiveJournal, comments and replies to comments can be emailed to the users.

=== Filters ===
In addition to watching artists, a user can, akin to [[Egypt Urnash]]'s [[Peggy's VCL Sieve]] blocking feature, block an artist from their view across the entire site.

=== Variable Thumbnails ===
The thumbnails can be adjusted to respect older monitors or laptop screen restraints, but are open to larger, newer monitors and LCD screens.

=== Tightly Integrated Forums ===
The forums on ArtSpots are integrated with the rest of the site, not requiring a separate user account to use. Because of this, direct links to galleries, favorites, and other site information are automatically displayed and linked to.

== Art Policy ==
{{rating-pg-button2}}
ArtSpots' ratings are set between [[G]] and [[PG-13]] focus. The criteria for admittance is skill-based, reviewed on anatomy, perspective, lighting and compositon.<ref>[http://www.artspots.com/apply/guidelines ArtSpots Portfolio Submission Criteria]</ref> <ref>[http://www.artspots.com/apply/portfolio ArtSpots Sample Portfolio]</ref> <ref>[http://www.artspots.com/forum/topic/142 Open Letter to ArtSpots Applicants] December 16, 2006 post by Seurat Cheetah on the ArtSpots Forum News group.</ref>

'''JaxPad''' is a non-adult [[anthropomorphic]], all-inclusive art gallery that allows any artist to showcase their work with an easy to use and navigate [[Wikipedia:Web_2|Web 2.0]] based interface.

== History ==

Initially a codebase built from scratch for viewing art by a team of individuals of furry inclination, a post on Yerf's LiveJournal offered<ref>http://community.livejournal.com/yerf/160095.html</ref> to transform this fledging project into a combined all-access and quality controlled PG art site for ex-Yerf artists who were leaving the site during its second major crash on the Autumn of 2006.

After taking some more input and suggestions from people on the journal, the first functional beta version of JaxPad<ref>http://community.livejournal.com/yerf/159653.html</ref> was announced on October 9 of 2006.

Shortly thereafter, [[ArtSpots]] was created to be a "second-tier," skill-reviewed gallery site. Both sites are intrinsically tied together as sister sites, including a single userbase for both.
