With the rise in popularity of AI, it's come to our attention that the artists of HEE have begun to use it as well. However please note that HEE does not condone the use of AI and therefore art that contains any AI components is not allowed. This includes AI art you may have generated yourself, AI art generated by someone else, or AI stock images.

With this being said, make sure you double check that the stock you are using is not AI! Sites such as Adobe allow users to upload AI images for stock use. Some sites have a filter where you can exclude AI images from your search, so it's encouraged you use those filters to prevent accidental use of AI.

Could I use an AI background for my Adoptables, since the background is not what is being sold?
