About:Welcome to [info]artifaction, the community for artistic images of found objects and discovered artifacts.

"Artifacts" includes physical objects, remnants of civilization, urban phenomena, rummage sale oddities, anthropological miscellany, things in your own home, etc. Natural phenomena (including people, pets, landscapes, etc.) are acceptable only if the object is a product of human craft.

This is an art-oriented community, and as such it is also a forum for the exhibition and critique of artwork that implements artifacts as medium and/or subject. This means that links to websites that exhibit similar media are welcome as well. However, each entry should include an image. Also, please feel free to include a remark or two about your subject.

Please note that this is not a humor community, but it isn't against the rules for something to be funny if it fits within these guidelines.

If you post part of someone else's artwork because you feel it has relevance here, please obtain permission, and/or credit the original artist, as appropriate.

Also, please use the lj-cut tag for excessively large images (as in those more than 100k, or over 600 pixels wide), or images that might not safe for work.

Anyone may join and submit images to this community, but exercise common sense. In other words, entries with inappropriate content (e.g., departing from that described in these guidelines) or that are technically inappropriate (e.g., entries with hosts that put banners on the images, entries with broken images, entries with images that are low-resolution or are especially badly compressed) may be deleted.

A list of other communities for sharing photography, humorous pictures, Internet phenomena and other imagery in general can be found here. For example, found notes and other written media are in [info]found_notes, e-mail forwards and other things found on the Internet are in [info]found_online, etc. If you decide something isn't appropriate here, it is still appropriate somewhere.

That said, only two rules:
1) Keep the content relevant.
2) Keep the criticism constructive.
