Character Art For Trade! (Gil or Items)

[Ashendyn]

So I've had a small tradition where I draw characters to make some earnings in all the MMO's I've joined. I was hoping to make some gil or good trades in exchange for art of your character (or a picture of your choice in general).

I have blogs with more examples but they contain adult themes (be it revealing or violence related) so I feel it wouldn't be appropriate to link them here.

Here are two examples thus far-

Personally message me if you'd like my blogs for further examples.

Post here if you have questions- or to tell me if this is in the wrong topic.

Pretty sure what you're offering here falls under section 2.2 of the EULA.

2.2 Real Money Trading, Farming and Power-Leveling. You may not sell, purchase or exchange for real-world money or value any in-game currency, accounts, characters, in-game services, or in-game virtual items. You may not play the Game for the purpose of acquiring virtual items or advancement in game play on behalf of a third-party or for the purpose of selling any virtual assets to a third party for real-world money, specifically including "gold-farming" and power-leveling services.

From what I understand that is specifically limited to using real money due to legality issues.

I've never run into an issue for art trades before on MMO's. Is there any way to clarify if art trading infringes on this rule?

I'm not trying to fight it but maybe an elaborated second opinion would clear things up? I'm more than reasonable.

the rule implies things of value, art has value to the seller and buyer thus it falls under the rule. This was asked before and they said it was against ToS sadly. Artist as well here, if you are going to make fan art keep it strictly for purchase by real money or our of charity

Shame- but I'll play by the rules!
