Discord Submissions

Discord Submission are User Submissions posted into submissions-feedback Discord Channel
General rules are also written here

General Rules:
(All Category specific rules apply here too, please check those before adding submissions)

1) Age Limit
There is a age/era cutoff age limit for what items we accept in public submissions:

For Motherboards:
We accept all boards with sockets 1366/1156/AM3 and older, but there are exceptions to this rule, we accept motherboard submissions when the motherboard meets one of these criteria:
- Does not appear in Google results
- Vendor has abandoned all support
- Vendor page is unusable, has broken links or there is a chance that it will stop existing soon
- Is an OEM board with no vendor support (no specification page, documentation, bioses etc)
- Is an Engineering Sample

For Graphics Cards:
We accept all Graphics Cards up to Nvidia GTX400 Series and AMD HD 5000 Series, there can be exceptions for newer cards (same criteria as for motherboards apply)

For other Expansion cards and other Items (HDDs, Optical/Floppy Drives, etc.):
Its almost impossible to set a cutoff point that will apply for everything so i will not even try.
As a curator you have a lot of freedom in these categories, same criteria as for motherboards should apply here, but if you think the card or hard drive is too new to be added you have all right to skip it.

2) Images
- All images should be credited with the name of the User posting them (before adding a new creditor please double check that it was not already added under a different name, alias etc.)
- Please try to crop Images so that there is not much empty space around the item (if it was not already done by the User).

We DO NOT accept submission images that break any of these rules:
- all images posted/linked have to be made by the user submitting them or have to be from someone they know/have permission for to use and all parties must agree to CC BY-SA 4.0 license.
- we DO NOT accept eBay/auction site images, web archive images, manufacturer images, etc. in public submissions (this is because we have an increasingly larger submissions backlog and we want to prioritize high quality entries)
