About:

this is a MODERATED artistic community for posting photos of things that are dead. dead animals, insects, plants, and even humans (if the photos are vintage, like a cool old found photo of someone in their coffin from the victorian era). NO gorey photos of dead humans allowed, as in no autopsy photos, no crime scene photos, no photos of terrible accidents or rotting corpses. gore and things that are in a state of decay will be allowed for all other things BUT the photo MUST be taken in an ARTISTIC way. no posting photos of roadkill just for shock value. put some effort into it, it has to be artful. photos of art or crafts made from dead things is also fine, like taxidermy. anything gorey (as in blood, guts, maggots, etc) must be put behind a lj-cut.
if it's just basically dead and it's not gorey, it does not need a lj-cut. keep pictures to a reasonable size, like nothing over 800 pixels wide. if the photo is not your own, credit the photographer.

also, no photos of animal parts that are clearly meant for food, since that only leads to arguments about meat eating vs. vegetarianism and that is NOT what this community is about.
there are plenty of other communities to debate the politics of food. this is not one of them.

also, while i understand that we need to have a sense of humour about things, even death, and that death is part of life (which is why i started this community), vulgar, crass, and insensitive comments about the dead will not be tolerated here. we can see beauty in death, sometimes even humour, but there is no need to still not have reverence and respect at the same time towards the dead. vulgar, crass, and insensitive thoughts and comments towards dead things breeds disconnection from our fellow earth creatures, which leads to uncaring, which leads to violence.

and that is not what this community is about. have respect. we are all one.
