Hello, with the new folders in the group I figured the Ultimate Folder Guide could use an update and a bump. So, here's the original Ultimate Folder guide with the newer folders in addition.
Originally written by NyappyMAL, edited by me (HopeBuster)
__________________________________

In this Guide I'll explain what kind of photos that goes into the folders and which doesn't and what can happen when submitted to the wrong gallery etc..

*Just to be clear, when I say contributors, that's the co-founders included too!

NOTE: Please read this guide carefully, and understand it - if you ever come to wonder which folder your photo should be submitted to, read this again or ask the group for help - with either a note or a comment.

First; There's a difference from being a member and a contributor, which is the submission limitation and which folders to submit to. (+that contributors gets to vote on submissions)

> Members can submit to all folders excluding featured

> Contributors can only submit to these folders: Featured - Equine Stock - (+Contest Folders)

When submitted to the wrong folder, your photo will be declined! If a photo submitted to the wrong folder wasn't declined, the photo will be deleted from the group! When your photo has be declined you can always submit it again; to the correct folder that is.


***Please do NOT submit IDs or Scraps at all as those kind of photos are in a position that does not require group exposure. Thanks
