Are you unsure of how to submit a prompt?
The Prompt Submission Guide explains every step of the prompt submission process with visual aides. If you still have any questions or need further help after reading this guide, please feel free to ask in our official Discord server.

Step 1: Uploading to the Gallery
To submit a prompt, you should first go to the Art Gallery, located at the bottom of the "Browse" tab of the top bar. Here, you can upload your art or writing as a gallery entry by clicking on the "+" button on the appropriate gallery section.
All prompt submissions should go in the Prompts gallery, while general submissions (pieces that don't follow a prompt) should go in the General gallery. Any pieces that contain explicit sexual acts should go in the Explicit gallery, regardless of whether they're prompts or general submissions.
Please note that you should never submit a piece directly to the Events gallery. This gallery is only for entries to limited time contests and challenges, which will each have its own sub-gallery linked on its rules page.
To upload Art, click the "Browse" button to select an image from your device. You can ignore the Text box below.
To upload Writing, paste the text of your piece directly into the Text box. You can ignore the Image section above.
After you've uploaded your piece, you should add a title, tag your upload with content warnings if required by our Content Rules, and select the prompt this piece is for (if applicable) from the prompt drop-down.
Finally, add any characters featured in your piece by adding their "slug," or character number—this is the BUN-### or MYO-### part of their masterlist entry. (NPC slugs are just the NPC's name, with no numbers.)
After everything has been filled out, click "Submit."
This will upload your piece to the gallery for all Succubuns players to see!* Every player also has a personal gallery of all their uploaded pieces linked on their profile, and every succubun has a gallery of all pieces they've been included in linked on their masterlist entry.
Once your piece is uploaded, you're ready to move on to submitting your prompt.
*If you're uncomfortable posting your pieces publicly, most prompts allow for you to submit an image link from an external host such as sta.sh or Google Drive. Please check the description of the prompt to see if this is allowed.

Step 2: Submitting Your Prompt
To submit a prompt, click the "Submit" button next to your username on the top bar, then click "Submit Prompt."
After opening a new prompt submission, select the prompt you're completing from the drop down at the top. If you're submitting general art that doesn't adhere to a specific prompt, please select the General Succubuns Submissions prompt.
Next, paste the link to your gallery entry in the Submission URL field below. (Please make sure to always put your links in the URL field, and not in the comments.)
Below the Submission URL field is the comment box. Adding a comment is optional, but it can be used to ask a question to the approval mod (such as asking if a background counts as complex or simple), say hello or thank you to our approval mods, or just add a bit of commentary about your piece!
Next, you'll find the option to add a Reward Calculator. While these may vary slightly by prompt, most prompts will allow you to select either Art or Writing. Fill in the boxes according to the of art elements or wordcount present in your piece, and it will automatically calculate your carats earned.
Make sure to always add your calculator when submitting a piece to Succubuns, as this is the only way to receive the carats your art or writing has earned. The only exceptions to this are certain contests and special event prompts that don't require art to fulfill minimum requirements, and thus do not have any calculators to add.
In the Characters section, you once again add the featured character's "slug," or character number (BUN-### or MYO-###), and set if they are the focus character or not. A focus character is the main character featured in a piece. This is currently only important for NPC prompts, but it's good to get in the habit of adding it!
NPC Prompts
NPC prompts award an NPC Trinket to the focus character completing the prompt, giving them a selection between two items.
When submitting an NPC prompt, you need to add the character receiving the reward as the only focus character. Please remember that only one character can recieve a reward per prompt completion—do not mark any other characters as focus, or the prompt will be rejected.
You will then receive the option to select between the two rewards for your character's inventory, which each correspond with one of the two NPC prompt options. Please select the reward corresponding to the prompt option you chose to fill.
If you add anyone other than the focus character, it can change the reward your focus character recieves. Please only add the focus character to NPC prompts.
The final field on the page gives you the option to attach an item to a submission, which is not currently required for any prompts on Succubuns.com. Please do not attach anything, or we will need to reject your prompt to prevent taking your item.
Once you've filled out all the fields according to the guide, you're ready to click Submit!
Your prompt submission will go into the queue, and the Succubuns team will review it within the next few days. If it's been over a week since submitting, please contact us through Reports or a ticket in our Discord server so that we can ensure your submission went through properly.
Best of luck with all those prompts!

Special Case: Collaborations
Collaboration prompts have special rules separating them from other prompts. Currently, collaborations are only accepted for prompts that specifically state they are collaboration prompts. General prompts, event prompts, or other types of prompts that do not specifically state they allow for collaborations will not accept them.
When submitting a collaboration, please make sure both parties do roughly equivalent amounts of work. What this looks like is up to you—one player doing the sketch and lineart while the other does the coloring, one player drawing the characters while the other draws the background, etc—but please make sure this isn't a case of one player completing the piece and the other adding minor details on top.
Both partners in a collaboration must contribute to a blended piece of artwork—they cannot both draw one half of the piece and then stick them together. Working together is part of the requirements for collaborative prompts.
Collaborations should use the Collaborator feature in the gallery. When uploaded your collaborative piece, click "Add Collaborator" and select the username of your collaboration partner. Your partner will then need to approve the piece.
After a collaboration has been uploaded to the gallery, both collaborators must submit it through Submit Prompt to receive the rewards.
If only one partner submits the collaborative prompt, the other partner will not receive rewards from it.
Submitting a collaborative prompt follows all of the same steps outlined in Step 2: Submitting Your Prompt. However, when filling out the calculator, you will need to click the Collaboration toggle to divide the carats earned between the two participants.
In a collaborative piece, the other participant's characters do not count for the gift art bonus—only characters not owned by either participant are eligible for this bonus.
