Description Full view for a better look

Rember this is all in fun. Im poking fun at myself too!

You've just submited some art, and your whistled with a foul by the offical, he gives you the signal, but your not quite sure what foul it is. Here is your guide. The picture contains the visual reference you need to correctly assertain your infration. a short description for each is below



Stock photo foul—(Narcissistic Photo)---receiving this foul means you submitted yet another stock photo with absolutely no intrinsic value other than to inflate your already over exaggerated ego. How many pictures do you think we need of a pretty face? 20 yard penalty

Penalty by birth— foul, you’re under 18! Yup, sorry, your under 18 and you did nothing wrong, except being under 18. Blame god. 10 yard penalty

Chain post— you started or continued a chain post. What in god name were you thinking? Can I not have a retreat from this kind of thing anywhere? Even here?? 30 yard penalty

Famous person portrait foul---you’re a good artist, have a decent grasp of a medium. The momentum is yours as the crowd chants your name, the game is you’re to win or lose, and what do you do??? You draw another portrait of a movie star. Guess what………you just lost the game.

DA guide foul---You receive this foul for making any sort of “DA” guide. Now when…….ah fuck, I just received a foul.

Frodo/Sam Foul---so, um, yea, we all saw the movie, and yea, it was sort of gay, ya know, that part, with them lovin each other. It wasn’t cool gay mind you, it was just creepy gay. Even my gay friends who have closets full of gay porn were creeped out by it. Which is exactly why we all need to smile, glance away, pretend it didn’t happen, and stop drawing pictures of Frodo and Sam kissing. No, for real, lets stop. Now. 50 yard penalty

VisPreset Foul—did you just actually submit a preset? 10 yard penalty, replay submission

Glow Foul---why are her breasts glowing? Come to think of it, why is her hair, face, leg and stomach muscles glowing as well? Now I know your young mind has been soiled by glowing extreme wackiness from comic book companies of all types, but, listen to me, most shit doesn’t glow. Try looking around you instead of in that poorly colored comic book ok? 10 yard penalty

Vasquez foul---Jhonen Vaquez does some good comics. His style is or was rather pretty unique before every little giddy saddy toshoes goth decided with gloomy glee that they were going to be completely different and draw the same exact stuff, in the same exact style. 10 yards penalty.

Original foul---You receive this foul just for being born and joining DA 5 yard penalty

Anime foul---honestly, the list of infractions is so long, the ref’s now have pure discretion to penalize as they see fit. It’s just more efficient that way, cause, who can keep up with ALL THE FREGGIN ANIME? Penalties vary

Stock photo foul---(mascara foul)---you’ve broken out the mascara, made it all runny down your sad little eyes, now grow up. It doesn’t make you look sexy, it doesn’t make you look scary, cool, sad, or any other adjective. It does however, make you look like an idiot. 20 yard foul

Band photo foul---Hey look! It’s Doug, up on stage, in his mesh trucker hat, rockin out, under bad lighting, photo time! Now that’s art! 13 yard penalty

Chicken!---chickens are an integral part of the universe, and should thus be worked into every piece of art, I don’t see no chickens in there buddy, 20 yards penalty

Filter foul--- look who’s discovered filters! Click on solarize and your off into the wild art yonder! 7 yard penalty

Overlessie Foul—Do you want to ruin one of the coolest things in the universe by making it so commonplace it’s no longer cool! Sure you’ll get page views, and sure, all us lame guys will look, but, in the end, we’ll hate you for destroying it. 15 yard penalty

Teen Angst—your teen angst is seeping though the crack of every poem, drawing or painting you do. And we feel terrible for you. That’s your receiving this foul, getting kicked out of the game, and switching places with either Frank or Donna. Frank just lost his job at the paper mill, his car was repossed, cant get an errection to save his life, lost all dreams and aspirations of doing anything creative or worthwhile years ago, and Donna just got knocked up again by some lame truck driver who bolted on her, has to work 11 hours a day only to come home and take care of three kids, is still emotionally demoralized cause her husband divorced her and married her sister and is a shell of the woman she used to be. Then mabey you can get a little angsty ok? 20 yard penalty

Fan Art-over 18—technically the rule is anyone who does fan art receives an immediate 10 yard penalty, but, the refs use common sence. They realize the folly of youth, so they let them slide. You however, being an adult now, need to put away childish things, and stop drawing fan art, mkay? 10 yard penalty.

Final Fantasy Hair foul---although this infraction can easily fall under the anime foul umbrella, the powers that be realized the urgent need to address the problem. What’s the problem? Rampant over use of lame spikey final fantasy hair is the cause of 48% of all deaths in the world. It must be stopped. 45 yard penalty

Eyeball foul—drawing or photographing an eyeball results in a 5 yard penalty

Being under 18 isn't a foul. The minimum age to get on deviantart is 13! Idiots watching Little Einsteins these days.

Whats scary to me is I did this thing almost 7 years ago, and most of everything on it is even more prevalent today!

Fanart, Shame on you!

Btw, I like your work.

This is great~~

I love the Chicken foul especially -- although, I know many people would substitute the chicken for a llama.
Ps, I'd personally recatergorize this under "deviantART > deviantART Related > Devious Fun," since it's sarcastic.

Great job on this~

Chicken!!! BOK!

You know, i did this thing so long ago, i havent looked at in awhile. Its categorized in Digital Art now, and that is totally not where i put it, i think it must have gotten moved a few years back when DA went to the version it is now, they had some problems i think, and i just didnt notice. thanks for pointing that out to me

Oh, no prob. I didn't even look at the sub. date.... lol~
That would make sense, especially since deviant Related art wasn't an even avaliable then.

too bad there isn't a chicken emote.............hmm, I shall attempt one!!! dA deserves a chicken emote~

Refer to the emoticon placement in the upper right-han corner.




I wish I could have made one before this was put out, but c'est la vie!

Awww I get anime foul and penalty by birth, whats wrong with anime eh? I draw realistic all the time and it sooooo boring so when I get home I animize, ah well I escaped the fanart one by being 15! whoo!
Nice job on the Vasquez, Teen Angst and Mascara foul, and to a lesser extent over lessie.
Although it seems that if we were to have it your way we would all just draw chickens over and over in hyperrealism.... wait that would be much better than DA as it is now...
