You must be allowed to post the image to Alpha Coders. Usually this either means that you created the image yourself,
you have direct and explicit permission from the author, or the author has stated that they allow sharing to promote their work.
Do not crop content with the intention of removing an author's signature or watermark.
If you are an author: Thank you for submitting your own original work! Otherwise, please make sure you are giving
the original author credit and responsibly sharing.
We have
author rules too. To mark yourself as the author of content you need to have
generated it, and it must be unique to you in some way. This means anime screenshots, video game cutscenes, and other images that are
not unique to you would not be considered author content. Things like video game screenshots using a camera mode that are unique to you
are acceptable.
You have looked at our Terms of Service and understand the differences between how Alpha Coders
treats content submitted by it's original author, and content that has been shared responsibly.
Funny is fine. Hate is not. Please be careful with touchy subjects.
Please make a best effort to tag submissions correctly, and in line with how things are categorized at Alpha Coders.
Reading our Tag Rules will help.
Alpha System always tries to show the BEST content to users. Things like poor image quality submitted as a desktop wallpaper
will impact if Alpha System will even show the image as a desktop wallpaper. The same applies to all the sites. Smaller amounts of great
submissions will get more visibility than large amounts of poor quality submissions.
File Types, The Moderator Process, And Benefits
We support jpg, jpeg, jfif, png, webp, avif, gif, and mp4 files.
All Submissions are moderated. Usually our auto moderation system, Alpha System, can handle this.
Otherwise, this typically takes less than 24 hours. New users start out with an upload limit to prevent spam.
Submitting earns you AC Points! You can use points to enter our raffles and win awesome things. We have new raffles every month.
Spam and Abuse
Please do not submit on shared or temporary email addresses
Suddenly dumping several hundred or thousands of images (or anything else - reports, etc) greatly increases the risk that
your account is seen as spam/abuse and is automatically deleted.
Mass deleting content, and then resubmitting the same or similar content will also flag an account,
and greatly increase the risk of being deleted and banned.
