Terms of Usage

Before using any of our graphics, please familiarize yourself with our rules. Thank you! By using any part of this site, you are agreeing to our Terms of Usage. If you break these Terms, you run the risk of being listed on our Wall of Shame and/or being banned from AR.com.

General Usage

  • You may use our graphics even if you are not a member of the guild.


  • If you use anything from this site, (this includes avatars!) you MUST provide visible credit somewhere on the page or site that material is being used (unless credit is already provided, then you do not need to add more). You may not remove credits on a layout and add text credit instead. You are allowed, however, to remove the music code credit banner, so long as you add visible text credit. You may also create your own custom music banner to credit AR if you wish to use that instead--but credit on the banner must be easily read, not blurred.


  • You may not take/use original articles, guides and content of any sort from this site to put on your own site, petpage, any webspace, public or private, unless you have explicit permission to do so. The content on AR.com was made exclusively for AR.com--and is meant to stay that way.


  • By no means are you allowed to take any original content from this site and claim it as your own work.




  • About Coding Usage

  • Our coding may never be used on another graphic/design website. Please do not ask. If you cannot code your own layouts then you probably shouldn't be running a graphics collective! ^_^


  • You may use our coding for your own personal lookups, guild layouts, ect, so long as there is visible credit somewhere on the page (credit should be written like so: "Coding from animerequiem.com, edited by 'yourname' "). Credit can be in either text form, or directly on the images in the layout itself. IF the credit is on the images, it must be in a font that is crisp enough and large enough to be read easily. No blurriness please!


  • You may never use our coding to make custom or premade layouts for other people, even if you add credit! The coding is from and for AR.com's uses only. You did not spend the time to create it, and therefore have no right to alter and redistribute it to others...that rather defeats the purpose for this site! =X



  • About Image Usage

  • You may not rip off, edit or chop up our layouts and images in any way to create a new layout. Enough said.


  • You are allowed to crop sections of our premade layouts for use in banners, buttons, etc, so long as you have credit either on the graphic or on the place(s) it's being used. If an artist or site is also listed in the premade layout's credits, you must provide credit for them as well! Our site layout itself is not to be cropped or used at all, however.



  • When Commenting or Chatting

    You know the drill. No harassment, excessive foul language, rude comments, stalking, sexual or obscene suggestions, etc, etc. Don't impersonate people. It just makes you look really stupid considering your IP adress is logged and we can tell who is posting what. Did you know that your IP adress can be cross referenced, and with it we can determine not only a general idea of where you were writing from, but your Internet Provider as well? (Thats what IP stands for!) So we would know just what company to write to if we wanted to get serious about lodging a complaint... ^_~
