Free to use artwork page
Since art theft is such a big issue on ferzu I think it would be a good idea to create a page or something with artwork people can use if they don't have their own art (yet). This to hopefully bring the numbers for stolen art down. I think a lot of the time when people use stolen art they probably don't know any better. Instead of only having rules saying you shouldn't steal art I think it would be a good idea to give them another option so they feel less inclined to steal art in the first place.
Artists on ferzu could choose to donate art to this cause (I definitely would donate) and there could be a link to the page in the rules with something along the lines of "if you do not have any art yet you can find some free to use art in this link. Don't forget to credit the artist if you do end up using the art though." and maybe the welcome bot could add this to their welcome message too. Less importantly I think this would be a great way to support artists too if this idea works, because it could help them get their art out there and attract customers.
