im still curious to see where the proposed site being made by a toyhouse user goes but im impatient so i decided to look around some more and found a site called lorepository. its a character sharing/storing site like toyhouse, but unlike toyhouse it does allow for canon character fan designs/CBCs. its a new and small site, i think only being launched in january of this year, but it seems cool and id like to see it grow some more!
my lorepository profile is here: https://lorepository.com/users/ijefce-astronomarten
warning though that lorepository is an 18+ site. its not strictly nsfw but the devs want a dedicated space for adults
i think im gonna allow mutuals of mine who are 20+ to draw explicit art of my jb fan designs so long as they ask first
(its stated in their artfight profile permissions that anyone 20+ can draw merely suggestive art of them so long as they ask first but im limiting downright explicit art of them to mutuals 20+, at least for now)
not an april fools joke btw
so toyhouse doesnt allow uploading canon-based characters/fan interpretations of canon characters, which is understandable but id like to be able to store info and art for my jackbox fan designs and ttr boiler fan design somewhere, with the same kind of customization that toyhouse has. my fan designs have profiles on artfight but artfight is less of an image-storing site, as non-paying users can only upload 6 images per character profile
are there any sites like toyhouse that allow for this? im not looking to abandon toyhouse, its still a good site imo and works p well for my completely original, not-canon-character-based characters, i just want smth for my fan designs LOL
update: i found out about an upcoming site made by a toyhouse user thats meant to be pretty much 1:1 to toyhouse but it allows for fan designs and will seemingly have better moderation
it might be a while before it fully releases but im willing to wait and see tbh
