What I was thinking was less along the lines of giving credit (though that's important) and more along the lines of separating the drawn from the received and giving the buyers a place to showcase their stuff and not just the sellers (with possibly a way to link favorites and comment threads though that could make the system really messy).
The cheapest / simplest way to implement this idea would be a simple checkbox on each upload that says if it you be put in "made" or "received". After that a "module" could be made for the user profiles to showcase "Works Received"
(though giving credit is a very important part of it)
Another possible suggestion is if you do a joint page for a submission have a place for both the artist description and the commissioner's description and only split it if one person chooses to remove it from their gallery.
Also offer an option to split it if the artist or commissioner make changes to the file.
The details will need to be worked out for this type of system to avoid any sort of issues but the idea in general would be to give people who create ideas their fair share of the spotlight and not just the artists.
Why can't we at least TRY the idea that we blacklist the extreme stuff people are uncomfortable with by default and still allow it to exist. It is not like banning it will get rid of cub porn from the internet.
What I want to see something between all other furry sites and inkbunny. Inkbunny is the only furry site to allow cub and because of that it is flooded with the stuff.
I don't want to see Furry Network ban anything so long as it is art and all participants in creating the piece are adults. At the same time I don't want Furry Network to become like Inkbunny to where because of people who draw cub supporting the site and people who don't avoiding it becomes all cub.
I am just tired of being stuck with inkbunny where I dislike most of the content just because its the only place that allows stuff that looks subjectively underaged.

Pictures I have drawn myself
Pictures I have bought or were given to me
As you can see I have quite a few pictures in both category. As of right now galleries are all centered around the artist. Commissioners are allowed to upload work to their gallery but if they draw as well there is no way to distinguish art by them from art by others without mixing them into their gallery.
