That's what I don't get, either. If you just look at crab > submissions, the line art's still in the most recent. It doesn't take any digging through the archives. Is it really so unfathomable that someone might color just a cropped icon without submitting a whole colored piece? Of course, the PM telling me why it was in violation of the rules was amusing. The first thing it said was "you are not allowed to use official artwork for icons". Official? This?! If Squeenix is making their own yaoi art, I'll be scouring google for it all day! I know it's just one of four types you can't use, but being the lead-off just struck me like a backhanded compliment.

This has been my weirdest Christmas ever.
