Just so everyone is on the same page here are some general rules I hope everyone knows to follow:
1. Play nice, I (and many others) don't tolerate drama. This will be a positive community for cross stitching, not some battleground for whatever other topic. If you feel it's getting too ugly, then ask for admin/mod (I guess that's what you call it here?) help and leave it be.
2. If someone wants constructive criticism, go ahead and give it to them. However, do take time to consider how you present your feedback. It's important that someone gets both tips on how to improve (or learn) as well as encouragement to keep going. Likewise, if you are the person asking for constructive criticism be mature in response. You asked for people's opinions and sometimes they may not be 100% praising. You always have room to grow.
3. NSFW stuff needs to be tagged. This includes stuff with swearing or sexual content. This is more as a courtesy for folks who may be browsing their feed or this community while at work, school, or out in public.
4. Please try to link or reference patterns you use. This is to credit the original designer and to prevent the millions of comments sent your way about "Where did you get that pattern?!". Unless it's your own...then feel free to rep yourself all you want. :)
5. Try not to post in super rapid succession. This is to keep a steady flow of posts from all users! Once again, more a courtesy to everyone rather than a hard demand.
Anyway, I want to try and keep this a chill community, so I won't dump too many rules here. I may do revisions periodically based on group demand and things pointed out to me. Beyond that, I just want everyone to have a fun place to share their work and love for the craft.
Happy stitching, everyone!
