Adults: If you would like to contribute a story to this site, for now, you'll have to be able to do the images and story yourself.

Kids: Hopefully, sometime in the future, we'll be able to take a story you write and illustrate it for you. Wouldn't it be nice to see your very own story here?

Please follow the guidelines below when submitting a story:
Images may not contain foul language, racial slurs, any adult content, or anything that could be considered inappropriate content
Image size must be 512x512 pixels, but an additional 10 pixel black border is allowed around all edges
Please try to keep images under 100 KB, preferably around 85 KB for quick loading
Images must be in digital format, created using any 2D or 3D program, or any combination thereof
Images must be in jpeg format, non-progressive format
No photographs or scanned in drawings
No copyrighted objects/materials unless you hold the copyright or the author has granted permission for use in personal artwork (please carefully review any licenses or readme files that came with the item)
Do not use last names if the story contains humans
Stories should be no longer than 10 pages long (shorter the better) and text on each page should be short enough and simple enough for a pre-schooler to understand, but interesting enough for an older child - although, if the story is meant for a particular age, let us know so it can be added to the story description
Please obtain permission from the animals involved (if possible) prior to submitting the story (grin)
You retain all copyright to the story and images (please put signature and date somewhere on each image)
Each page should consist of a three row table with the text in the first row, image in the second, and software used in the third row.
Pages will be reformatted by Fignations to fit the site format
Pages should be submitted via e-mail, in a .zip or .sit compressed format, to webmaster@fignations.com
Fignations of Imaginment reserves the right to refuse any story or image for any reason, although we may request changes if needed
Basically, Would you feel comfortable reading the story to your own child or to a niece or nephew?
