Welcome to Twibooru! Anonymous posting only; no content restrictions beyond pony-related and legal; comments are disabled by default (Settings -> Comments). Read me!
<p>Twibooru is an archive website for media pertaining to the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, related franchises, and the fandom surrounding them.</p>
<h2>What makes us different</h2>
<ul class="rule">
<li>
We allow anonymous uploads only
<ul>
<li>
The content you upload will not be moderated according to their contents — as long as it is <a href="/pages/rules/#2">pony related</a> (and <a href="/pages/rules/#4">legal</a>), it's allowed
</li>
<li>We offer a pure searchable archive and do not aim to foster a <q>community</q>; as such, staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum</li>
<li>We are hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, so we do not maintain a <q>do-not-post</q> list or process image takedowns from individual artists</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>We intend to automatically import media from other fandom <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imageboard#Danbooru-style_boards" rel="external noopener" target="_blank">boorus</a></li>
<li>
Our <a href="/pages/rules/#4">content restrictions</a> are more lax than some of the more established fandom imageboards
<ul><li>We allow foalcon, <q>loli,</q> fluffy ponies, merch sexploitation, political propaganda of all stripes, etc., in addition to your everyday cute, safe-for-work ponies</li></ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>We do not intend to replace, supplant, or otherwise compete with any other boorus in the fandom; rather, we merely wish to provide another — hopefully useful — avenue of sharing for everypony. You've got to share. You've got to care.</p>

<div class="hidden" id="faq-item-whataretags" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<p itemprop="text">
Tags are how we stay organized. They are used to describe posts, telling you who the artist or author is, what characters are featured, the theme, a rating, and more. By using tags, everyone is able to easily find that exact item they want to find. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<div class="hidden" id="faq-item-addingtags" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<p itemprop="text">
Tags should tell you what is in the post: What characters are featured, what the theme is, whether or not there are any original characters, relevant items displayed or talked about, and meta information — such as the artist, author, editor, and rating. There is a helpful tag table that will pop up below the tag editing box that contains many of the most commonly used tags. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

No. Tags must accurately reflect the content or metadata of the post.

If a post has been updated or fixed by the artist, upload it and report the old item as a duplicate of the new. Click the "Reporting" tab on the old item, then <q>Updated or previously uploaded,</q> and enter the ID number (example: https://twibooru.org/<strong>42069</strong>) of the new post.

Upvoting (
<a class="interaction--upvote"><i class="fa fa-arrow-up"></i></a>
) and downvoting (
<a class="interaction--downvote"><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></a>
) let you show your approval or disapproval for a post privately; it only changes the score of the post. Favoriting (
<a class="interaction--fave"><span class="fave-span"><i class="fa fa-star"></i></span></a>
) is public and gives you a way to more easily find your favorite posts again. If you favorite an item, an upvote will also automatically be added. You can always remove that upvote if you wish.

<p itemprop="text">
It is not possible to fully delete accounts. You can request that your account be deactivated and have all personally identifiable information (such as your email and IP address) wiped by contacting <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a> from the email address associated with the account. Note that if you wish to have your username no longer associated with the site, you must change it before submitting the request.

<p itemprop="text">
You may rename your account by going to your <a href="/registration/edit">Account Settings</a> page, and looking for the the link to rename your account at the top of the page. Please be aware that you may only rename your account once every ninety days; if the link is not visible, that means your account was renamed too recently.

<div itemprop="text">
<p>
Ban messages will include a reason for the ban. Note that, due to how IP addresses work, you may have ended up with an IP address that was banned while someone else used it. So if you know how and if it's possible, you may want to try renewing your IP address.

<p itemprop="text">
We actively monitor posts and will delete anything that violates the <a href="/pages/rules">Site Rules</a>. The rules attempt to give detailed accounts of what is not allowed and will be taken down. If you feel your post was taken down in error, please don't re-upload it — contact us and we'll talk! We're only human and are prone to errors, unlike our alicorn overlords.

We aren't big fans of it and are unfamiliar with the programming language it is written in (<a href="https://elixir-lang.org/" rel="external noopener" target="_blank">Elixir</a>). As such, we've decided to stick with what is familiar and has been the tried and true backend of Derpibooru for most of the past 9 years.

<div class="hidden" id="faq-item-whataretags" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<p itemprop="text">
Tags are how we stay organized. They are used to describe posts, telling you who the artist or author is, what characters are featured, the theme, a rating, and more. By using tags, everyone is able to easily find that exact item they want to find. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<p itemprop="text">
Tags should tell you what is in the post: What characters are featured, what the theme is, whether or not there are any original characters, relevant items displayed or talked about, and meta information — such as the artist, author, editor, and rating. There is a helpful tag table that will pop up below the tag editing box that contains many of the most commonly used tags. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

No. Tags must accurately reflect the content or metadata of the post.

Ban messages will include a reason for the ban. Note that, due to how IP addresses work, you may have ended up with an IP address that was banned while someone else used it. So if you know how and if it's possible, you may want to try renewing your IP address.

<p>Twibooru is an archive website for media pertaining to the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, related franchises, and the fandom surrounding them.</p>
<h2>What makes us different</h2>
<ul class="rule">
<li>
We allow anonymous uploads only
<ul>
<li>
The content you upload will not be moderated according to their contents — as long as it is <a href="/pages/rules/#2">pony related</a> (and <a href="/pages/rules/#4">legal</a>), it's allowed
</li>
<li>We offer a pure searchable archive and do not aim to foster a "community"; as such, staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum</li>
<li>We are hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, so we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns from individual artists</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>We intend to automatically import media from other fandom <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imageboard#Danbooru-style_boards" rel="external noopener" target="_blank">boorus</a></li>
<li>
Our <a href="/pages/rules/#4">content restrictions</a> are more lax than some of the more established fandom imageboards
<ul><li>We allow foalcon, "loli," fluffy ponies, merch sexploitation, political propaganda of all stripes, etc., in addition to your everyday cute, safe-for-work ponies</li></ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>We do not intend to replace, supplant, or otherwise compete with any other boorus in the fandom; rather, we merely wish to provide another — hopefully useful — avenue of sharing for everypony. Because sharing is magic.</p>

Tags are how we stay organized. They are used to describe media, telling you who the artist is, what characters are featured, the theme, a rating, and more.

You can enjoy most of the benefits of our site without an account.

<li itemscope itemprop="mainEntity" itemtype="https://schema.org/Question">
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-whataretags" href="#" itemprop="name">What are tags?</a>
<div class="hidden" id="faq-item-whataretags" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<p itemprop="text">
Tags are how we stay organized. They are used to describe media, telling you who the artist is, what characters are featured, the theme, a rating, and more. By using tags, everyone is able to easily find that exact item they want to find. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<div class="hidden" id="faq-item-addingtags" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<p itemprop="text">
Tags should tell you what is in the media: What characters are featured, what the theme is, whether or not there are any original characters, relevant items displayed within the media, and meta information — such as the artist, editor, and rating. There is a helpful tag table that will pop up below the tag editing box that contains many of the most commonly used tags. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<div class="hidden" id="faq-item-addanytag" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<p itemprop="text">
No. Tags must accurately reflect the content or metadata of the media. Adding random, nonsensical, or irrelevant tags, as well as removing valid tags, is considered <a href="/pages/rules/#1">tag vandalism</a> and if done intentionally could result in a ban. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<p itemprop="text">
If an uploaded item has been updated or fixed by the artist, upload it and report the old item as a duplicate of the new. Click the "Reporting" tab on the old item, then "Updated or previously uploaded," and enter the ID number (example: https://twibooru.org/<strong>42069</strong>) of the new image. All duplicate reports are processed manually by a member of the site staff and will be looked at as soon as possible.

<div class="hidden" id="faq-item-favevote" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<p itemprop="text">
Upvoting (
<a class="interaction--upvote"><i class="fa fa-arrow-up"></i></a>
) and downvoting (
<a class="interaction--downvote"><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></a>
) let you show your approval or disapproval for an item privately; it only changes the score of the item. Favoriting (
<a class="interaction--fave"><span class="fave-span"><i class="fa fa-star"></i></span></a>
) is public and gives you a way to more easily find your favorite images again. If you favorite an item, an upvote will also automatically be added. You can always remove that upvote if you wish.

<p>Twibooru is an archive website for media pertaining to the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, related franchises, and the fandom surrounding them.</p>
<h2>What makes us different</h2>
<ul class="rule">
<li>
We allow anonymous uploads only
<ul>
<li>
The content you upload will not be moderated according to their contents — as long as it is <a href="/pages/rules/#2">pony related</a> (and <a href="/pages/rules/#4">legal</a>), it's allowed
</li>
<li>We offer a pure searchable archive and do not aim to foster a "community"; as such, staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum</li>
<li>We are hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, so we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns from individual artists</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>We intend to automatically import media from other fandom <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imageboard#Danbooru-style_boards" rel="external noopener" target="_blank">boorus</a></li>
<li>
Our <a href="/pages/rules/#4">content restrictions</a> are more lax than some of the more established fandom imageboards
<ul><li>We allow foalcon, "loli," fluffy ponies, merch sexploitation, political propaganda of all stripes, etc., in addition to your everyday cute, safe-for-work ponies</li></ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>We do not intend to replace, supplant, or otherwise compete with any other boorus in the fandom; rather, we merely wish to provide another — hopefully useful — avenue of sharing for everypony. Because sharing is magic.</p>

<p>Twibooru is an archive website for media pertaining to the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, related franchises, and the fandom surrounding them.</p>
<h2>What makes us different</h2>
<ul class="rule">
<li>
We allow anonymous uploads only
<ul>
<li>
The content you upload will not be moderated according to their contents — as long as it is <a href="/pages/rules/#2">pony related</a> (and <a href="/pages/rules/#4">legal</a>), it's allowed
</li>
<li>We offer a pure searchable archive and do not aim to foster a "community"; as such, staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum</li>
<li>We are hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, so we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns from individual artists</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>We intend to automatically import media from other fandom <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imageboard#Danbooru-style_boards" rel="external noopener" target="_blank">boorus</a></li>
<li>
Our <a href="/pages/rules/#4">content restrictions</a> are more lax than some of the more established fandom imageboards
<ul><li>We allow foalcon, "loli," fluffy ponies, merch sexploitation, political propaganda of all stripes, etc., in addition to your everyday cute, safe-for-work ponies</li></ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>We do not intend to replace, supplant, or otherwise compete with any other boorus in the fandom; rather, we merely wish to provide another — hopefully useful — avenue of sharing for everypony. Because sharing is magic.</p>

<div itemprop="text">
Tags are how we stay organized. They are used to describe media, telling you who the artist is, what characters are featured, the theme, a rating, and more. By using tags, everyone is able to easily find that exact item they want to find. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<p>Twibooru is an archive website for media pertaining to the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, related franchises, and the fandom surrounding them.</p>
<h2>What makes us different</h2>
<ul class="rule">
<li>
We allow anonymous uploads only
<ul>
<li>
The content you upload will not be moderated according to their contents — as long as it is <a href="/pages/rules/#2">pony related</a> (and <a href="/pages/rules/#4">legal</a>), it's allowed
</li>
<li>We offer a pure searchable archive and do not aim to foster a "community"; as such, staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum</li>
<li>We are hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, so we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns from individual artists</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>We intend to automatically import media from other fandom <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imageboard#Danbooru-style_boards" rel="external noopener" target="_blank">boorus</a></li>
<li>
Our <a href="/pages/rules/#4">content restrictions</a> are more lax than some of the more established fandom imageboards
<ul><li>We allow foalcon, "loli," fluffy ponies, merch sexploitation, political propaganda of all stripes, etc., in addition to your everyday cute, safe-for-work ponies</li></ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>We do not intend to replace, supplant, or otherwise compete with any other boorus in the fandom; rather, we merely wish to provide another — hopefully useful — avenue of sharing for everypony. Because sharing is magic.</p>

<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-whataretags" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<div itemprop="text">
Tags are how we stay organized. They are used to describe media, telling you who the artist is, what characters are featured, the theme, a rating, and more. By using tags, everyone is able to easily find that exact item they want to find. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-addingtags" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<div itemprop="text">
Tags should tell you what is in the media: What characters are featured, what the theme is, whether or not there are any original characters, relevant items displayed within the media, and meta information — such as the artist, editor, and rating. There is a helpful tag table that will pop up below the tag editing box that contains many of the most commonly used tags. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-addanytag" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<div itemprop="text">
No. Tags must accurately reflect the content or metadata of the media. Adding random, nonsensical, or irrelevant tags, as well as removing valid tags, is considered <a href="/pages/rules/#1">tag vandalism</a> and if done intentionally could result in a ban.

If an uploaded item has been updated or fixed by the artist, upload it and report the old item as a duplicate of the new. Click the "Reporting" tab on the old item, then "Updated or previously uploaded," and enter the ID number (example: https://twibooru.org/<strong>42069</strong>) of the new image. All duplicate reports are processed manually by a member of the site staff and will be looked at as soon as possible.

Upvoting (

<span class="interaction--fave"><span class="fave-span"><i class="fa fa-star"></i></span></span>

<p>Twibooru is an archive website for media pertaining to the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, related franchises, and the fandom surrounding them.</p>
<h2>What makes us different</h2>
<ul class="rule">
<li>
We allow anonymous uploads only
<ul>
<li>
The content you upload will not be moderated according to their contents — as long as it is <a href="/pages/rules/#2">pony related</a> (and <a href="/pages/rules/#4">legal</a>), it's allowed
</li>
<li>We offer a pure searchable archive and do not aim to foster a "community"; as such, staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum</li>
<li>We are hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, so we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns from individual artists</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>We intend to automatically import media from other fandom <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imageboard#Danbooru-style_boards" rel="external noopener" target="_blank">boorus</a></li>
<li>
Our <a href="/pages/rules/#4">content restrictions</a> are more lax than some of the more established fandom imageboards
<ul><li>We allow foalcon, "loli," fluffy ponies, merch sexploitation, political propaganda of all stripes, etc., in addition to your everyday cute, safe-for-work ponies</li></ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>We do not intend to replace, supplant, or otherwise compete with any other boorus in the fandom; rather, we merely wish to provide another — hopefully useful — avenue of sharing for everypony. Because sharing is magic.</p>

If an uploaded item has been updated or fixed by the artist, upload it and report the old item as a duplicate of the new. Click the "Reporting" tab on the old item, then "Updated or previously uploaded," and enter the ID number (example: https://twibooru.org/<strong>42069</strong>) of the new image. All duplicate reports are processed manually by a member of the site staff and will be looked at as soon as possible.

<h2>What makes us different?</h2><h2>What makes us different</h2>
<ul class="rule">
<li>
We allow anonymous uploads only
<ul>
<li>
The content you upload will not be moderated according to their contents — as long as it is <a href="/pages/rules/#2">pony related</a> (and <a href="/pages/rules/#4">legal</a>), it's allowed
</li>
<li>We offer a pure searchable archive and do not aim to foster a "community"; as such, staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum</li>
<li>We are hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, so we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns from individual artists</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>We intend to automatically import media from other fandom <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imageboard#Danbooru-style_boards" rel="external noopener" target="_blank">boorus</a></li>
<li>
Our <a href="/pages/rules/#4">content restrictions</a> are more lax than some of the more established fandom imageboards
<ul><li>We allow foalcon, "loli," fluffy ponies, merch sexploitation, political propaganda of all stripes, etc., in addition to your everyday cute, safe-for-work ponies</li></ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>We do not intend to replace, supplant, or otherwise compete with any other boorus in the fandom; rather, we merely wish to provide another — hopefully useful — avenue of sharing for everypony. Because sharing is magic.</p>

<h2>What makes us different?</h2>
<ul><ul class="rule">
<li>
We allow anonymous uploads only

The content you upload will not be moderated according to their contents — as long as it is <a href="/pages/rules/#2">pony related</a> (and <a href="/pages/rules/#4">legal</a>), it's allowed
</li>
<li>We offer a pure searchable archive and do not aim to foster a "community"; as such, staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum</li>
<li>We are hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, so we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns from individual artists</li>

<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-whatistwi" href="#">What is this place and why is my art here?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-whatistwi">
Twibooru is an image repository which lets people bring together My Little Pony art from all over the internet, annotate the images with tags and an original source URL for easy searching, and discuss the artwork. Your artwork is here because someone liked it enough to post it to the site to share with the world.

</li>
<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-likeanon" href="#">Is it possible to remain anonymous on this website? What benefits do I get from registering?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-likeanon">
An account is not necessary for most site functionality. Additionally, if you are logged into an account, you're forced to be anonymous by default anyways! Registering an account is highly recommended, as that will allow you to utilize filters to hide content you don't wish to see, vote on images and add them to your favorites, send private messages, and more!

<h3>Images, Tags, and Sources</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-whataretags" href="#">What are tags?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-whataretags">
Tags are how Twibooru stays organized. They are used to describe images, including information such as the artist of the image, the character(s) in the image, theme of an image, and more. Using tags allows our members to quickly and easily find the images that they are looking for. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-whattags" href="#">What tags should I add to an image?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-whattags">
Tags should accurately describe the contents, such as characters, a theme, OCs, and items, and meta-information, such as the artist and rating, of an image. There is a quick tag table located below the tag editing box which contains most of the site's most commonly used tags. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-anytags" href="#">Can I add any tag I want to images?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-anytags">
No. Tags must accurately reflect the image. Adding random, nonsensical, or irrelevant tags to an image, as well as removing valid tags from an image, is considered tag vandalism and if done intentionally may result in a ban. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<p>Twibooru is an archive website for images pertaining to the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, related media, and the fandom surrounding them.</p>
<p><strong>What makes Twibooru different from all of the other sites out there in the same vein?</strong> Twibooru is anonymous upload only, and does not allow commenting on images. Images are not moderated according to their contents - as long as they are MLP-related, they are acceptable. It is a pure searchable archive, not a community, and staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum. Twibooru is hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, and as such we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns.</p>
<p>Twibooru intends to automatically import images from Derpibooru and several other related websites in order to maintain as complete an archive as is feasible.</p>
<p>General tagging policy and such is almost identical to <a href="https://www.derpibooru.org/" rel="external noopener" target="_blank">Derpibooru</a>, but the rules as to what content is allowed are much more lenient.</p>
<p>This site is not meant to replace, supplant, or otherwise compete with any other boorus for the MLP:FiM fandom, but merely to provide another &emdash; hopefully useful &emdash; avenue of sharing for the fandom. Because sharing is magic.</p><p>Twibooru is an archive website for media pertaining to the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, related franchises, and the fandom surrounding them.</p>

<li>We offer a pure searchable archive and do not aim to foster a "community"; as such, staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum</li>

<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-whatistwi" href="#">What is this place and why is my art here?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-whatistwi">
Twibooru is an image repository which lets people bring together My Little Pony art from all over the internet, annotate the images with tags and an original source URL for easy searching, and discuss the artwork. Your artwork is here because someone liked it enough to post it to the site to share with the world.

<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-likeanon" href="#">Is it possible to remain anonymous on this website? What benefits do I get from registering?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-likeanon">
An account is not necessary for most site functionality. Additionally, if you are logged into an account, you're forced to be anonymous by default anyways! Registering an account is highly recommended, as that will allow you to utilize filters to hide content you don't wish to see, vote on images and add them to your favorites, send private messages, and more!

<h3>Images, Tags, and Sources</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-whataretags" href="#">What are tags?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-whataretags">
Tags are how Twibooru stays organized. They are used to describe images, including information such as the artist of the image, the character(s) in the image, theme of an image, and more. Using tags allows our members to quickly and easily find the images that they are looking for. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-whattags" href="#">What tags should I add to an image?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-whattags">
Tags should accurately describe the contents, such as characters, a theme, OCs, and items, and meta-information, such as the artist and rating, of an image. There is a quick tag table located below the tag editing box which contains most of the site's most commonly used tags. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-anytags" href="#">Can I add any tag I want to images?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-anytags">
No. Tags must accurately reflect the image. Adding random, nonsensical, or irrelevant tags to an image, as well as removing valid tags from an image, is considered tag vandalism and if done intentionally may result in a ban. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-whataretags">
Tags are how Twibooru stays organized. They are used to describe images, including information such as the artist of the image, the character(s) in the image, theme of an image, and more. Using tags allows our members to quickly and easily find the images that they are looking for. Read more on our <a href="/pages/tags">Tag Guidelines</a> page.

<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-whattags" href="#">What tags should I add to an image?</a>

<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-anytags" href="#">Can I add any tag I want to images?</a>

Images are not moderated according to their contents - as long as they are MLP-related and do not violate Bulgarian law, they are acceptable. It is a pure searchable archive, not a community, and staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum. Floorbooru is hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, and as such we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns.</p>
<p>Floorbooru intends to automatically import images from Derpibooru and several other related websites in order to maintain as complete an archive as is feasible.</p>
<p>General tagging policy and such is identical to Derpibooru (in fact, most of the FAQs are direct copy/pastes of Derpibooru policy), but the rules as to what content is allowed are much more lenient.</p>
<p>It's not meant to replace or supplant any other boorus for the MLP:FiM fandom, but merely to provide another - hopefully useful - avenue of sharing for the fandom.

Tags are how Floorbooru stays organized. They are used to describe images, including information such as the artist of the image, the character(s) in the image, theme of an image, and more. Using tags allows our members to quickly and easily find the images that they are looking for.

<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-whattags" href="#">What tags should I add to an image?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-whattags">
Tags should accurately describe the contents, such as characters, a theme, OCs, and items, and meta-information, such as the artist and rating, of an image. There is a quick tag table located below the tag editing box which contains most of the site's most commonly used tags.

<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-anytags" href="#">Can I add any tag I want to images?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-anytags">
No. Tags must accurately reflect the image. Adding random, nonsensical, or irrelevant tags to an image, as well as removing valid tags from an image, is considered tag vandalism and if done intentionally will result in a ban.

<p>Floorbooru is an archive website for images pertaining to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.</p>
<p><strong>What makes Floorbooru different from all of the other sites out there in the same vein?</strong> Floorbooru is anonymous upload only, and does not allow commenting on images. Images are not moderated according to their contents - as long as they are MLP-related and do not violate Bulgarian law, they are acceptable. It is a pure searchable archive, not a community, and staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum. Floorbooru is hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, and as such we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns.</p>
<p>Floorbooru intends to automatically import images from Derpibooru and several other related websites in order to maintain as complete an archive as is feasible.</p>
<p>General tagging policy and such is identical to Derpibooru (in fact, most of the FAQs are direct copy/pastes of Derpibooru policy), but the rules as to what content is allowed are much more lenient.</p>
<p>It's not meant to replace or supplant any other boorus for the MLP:FiM fandom, but merely to provide another - hopefully useful - avenue of sharing for the fandom. Because sharing is magic.</p>

<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-acctnameinuse">
If someone has registered a username that you would like and has had no activity on the site, we will be glad to "clear up" the username so that you may have it in most circumstances. Please contact a moderator for assistance with this.

<li>
<a class="togglable-faq-item" data-click-toggle="#faq-item-whydeleted" href="#">Why was my upload deleted?</a>
<p class="hidden" id="faq-item-whydeleted">
We actively monitor images and will delete any upload that violates the <a href="/pages/rules">Site Rules</a>. Though we are very liberal with what we allow, we had to draw the line somewhere. The rules give detailed accounts of what is not allowed on the Booru and will be taken down. If you feel your upload was taken down in error, please don’t re-upload it – contact us and we’ll talk! We’re only human and mistakes do happen.

<p>Floorbooru is an archive website for images pertaining to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.</p>
<p><strong>What makes Floorbooru different from all of the other sites out there in the same vein?</strong> Floorbooru is anonymous upload only, and does not allow commenting on images. Images are not moderated according to their contents - as long as they are MLP-related and do not violate Bulgarian law, they are acceptable. It is a pure searchable archive, not a community, and staff involvement is intended to be kept to a minimum. Floorbooru is hosted in a country with very lenient copyright laws, and as such we do not maintain a "do-not-post" list or process image takedowns.</p>
<p>Floorbooru intends to automatically import images from Derpibooru and several other related websites in order to maintain as complete an archive as is feasible.</p>
<p>General tagging policy and such is identical to Derpibooru (in fact, most of the FAQs are direct copy/pastes of Derpibooru policy), but the rules as to what content is allowed are much more lenient.</p>
<p>It's not meant to replace or supplant any other boorus for the MLP:FiM fandom, but merely to provide another - hopefully useful - avenue of sharing for the fandom. Because sharing is magic.</p>
