Couldn't you get banned for that stuff?
You could make a DA and post all of it on that and it links with PMC :D

Not to offend you but your kakashi hatake drawing and masone23: D drawings are examples of that. Its not even related to anything on minecraft.
In your rant you say you drew some profile pictures for moderators. That is the whole different story. In that case you drew something to be used as profile picture but not to be released as some individual drawing project. In fact that drawing contributed to this group.
Its not planet miscellaneous projects. Its planet minecraft. I really think whatever we do has to be related to minecraft in some ways.

I have seen your drawing and there great. But as every1 else said this is planet minecraft for minecraft related things. Even though it is filled up with non minecraft things if people start accepting art then next will be call of duty and then halo until eventully this just becomes Planet. So Im not asking you to stop posting art im just asking you to stop complaining when people who come for minecraft get art.

And they're allowed on this site without critics saying they should go away.
Why should actual drawings be turned away.
Art is art, mate. It all deserves a place to be viewed and who are you to say that PMC isn't the place for all art to be enjoyed? Does it hurt you that it's on this site. No. Not at all.

It's like going on Reddit and submitting a link to a subreddit that isn't related. For example submitting a link to a news article reporting a murder in the 'funny' subreddit. Mods might allow it, but that doesn't make it right.

This is art. In a site based around a specific game. Though it's not Minecraft related. It's still art in a site that bases a lot of it's items around art. This site was made for Minecraft fans, and why should a Minecraft fan not be allowed to show his drawings to fellow Minecraft fans?
Drawings can be anything on this site. It just shows the variety of talents in our community. We should appreciate the variety this site continues to hand us in people's submissions. Not disagree with it and tell it to go somewhere else.

Yup. but most people here are giving great sudgestions that we have a blog section for other art. like if we had a "fan-art blog section or if we has a " off-topic " art blog. either would be great because it would only be us blogging, out of everyones way and such. i would love to see that happen

But yea. Maybe an off-topic section for art might be a good idea. Personally, I suck at art. So who am I to say what can and cannot be done?

In the forums, there's a Fan Art & Creativity section for a reason.
Whats the use of that if people aren't allowed to post their personal art here.
But of course we should be aware of our limits.
posting occasionally is quite fine but if we get too carried away it might end up in a different thing.

The fact that Cyprezz himself commented on here saying that he supports Art on the site means that it's allowed. Im pretty sure when it comes down to site rules and regulations Cyprezz would know better than anyone else. People are just being jealous. You have to realise that there are sections on the site that allow people to post what they want, eg the Everything Else forum topic. I dont see [many] people attacking others who post on there. Same applies to the Art section, it doesnt specify under the rules on posting in there that it has to be Minecraft Art.
Just stop arguing. You've lost, your point is invalid. Art is allowed on the site.

And, bronies: Dont even get us started on that.
Jealous? There might be some of the rest who are actually jealous, but, the problem is, that you cant even get started on ponies and what not childish stuff.
If you say something against ponies, suddenly, everyone hates and bla.
People that cant draw enough attention from projects or art posts in the Everything Else section on the forums start to post in the blogs section, Ofc it gets more attention there.
Oh, and by the way, your finish was pretty bad, I thought you might be arguing good, but jeah, I see where this is going.

Moderators are only endorsing your art because it benefits them. They get a custom profile picture and you get the good feeling inside that you now have brownie points with a mod (yes I am saying the mods are in the wrong). As for the rest of your fan base, I put it down to this; if someone is scrolling down the page and they stumble across a picture they think is particularly interesting and out of the ordinary, of course they are going to have a look at it. It's something they were not expecting while browsing a site like this. Maybe they think it's so good they'll go as far as to subscribe to you.
I won't hesitate to say your work is of a high standard and is visually stimulating. Of course it is, most art is! We all like art! But is PMC a place for people who enjoy art to share and browse art? No. It is a place to share and browse Minecraft related creations.
Saying things like "but we don't care" seems awfully arrogant. If people don't like and don't desire what you're creating (apart from the idiots that come to PMC to view completely unrelated content) and are openly telling you it does not belong here (for example, me) perhaps you should seriously question your motives for posting it in the first place.
If you're looking for people to compliment your work, use and share your work and just generally admire it, you truly would be better off posting it on a site dedicated to that sort of thing. For example DEVIANT ART.
Edit:
In addition to this, if you were a dancer, and went to a dance related website you wouldn't expect to see post after post after post of completely unrelated content for example posts on cooking and various recipes. I'm sure you would get rather frustrated having to constantly sift through posts to sort the related content from the unrelated, unwanted content.
One of the first things you would do is ask a mod why it was being allowed and inform him off what a hindrance it is. If he/she were to say to me something along the lines of "Well, sorry to break it to you, but we don't care" you would be quite upset and you would most likely leave the site, never to return. By mods encouraging these unrelated art posts, they're basically telling everyone "we don't care"
Well, there's a fitting answer. I encourage you to reply.

sorry i copied that after i typed it elsewhere. I've replied to so many weird topics that my hands are dying. anyways, yes i get that its not really belonging on the site... we know when we post that we'll get haters and such.
i do have a deviant art, but the thing i hated about it is that you only get a "thumbs up" which is like... cool... what does that do?
the reason i post here is because people are like... woah! and you get this appriciation that someone outthere likes it. and then they post like... this could do with more shadows, more hair lines, more blah blah blah.
also, unlike deviant art, this has a friendly community of people who love the same things but yet love to find more. some people here post stories. and there great, like Animatrix. or people post other skins, like Lycandar. or art, like me.
i enjoy posting art, but its nt all i do. its been stuck in my head that this is a minecraft site, over and over again, i gave skinning a try. im not too bad, but i do post art again sometimes to just let people see what i can do.
i dont know if this answered anything, but if it didnt. please reply back

Thats why they are going like "woha, dude, thats freaking awesome". On deviantart, there are real Artists, that do their job for living.
I have a profile there too, look at my pageviews per day if you want, or even comments. They are pending between 1 comment per deviation, if lucky, and about 6 pageviews per day.
But thats not a reason for me to get a good feeling here, instead improve, to get noticed.
Nuff said.

Here is what I have to say to that:
Listen close now, this is not ment to be offending, I am just telling you what I think.
Ok, first of, this is not an ArtBlog or whatelse. Art belongs to DeviantArt, or any other site that has Art in any way as the primary target to be looked at.
I respect People for their Art, I have 3 of them on my Profile, too.
This art is user related, that means, I dont post pictures of kakashi or who else here.
But People start more and more to post their sketches from anywhere here, and tell as an excuse that Its not noted somewhere in the Rules to not do so.
Well, thats ok, But people like you, who post a blog about "Well, we are going to post art anyways, Haters gonna Hate" Are just attention seekers and people who want to say something that is not nessesary.
That is all I have to say to you, if you say your opinion, I say mine too.

People don't understand or respect the fact that some people spend LOT'S of time on art. It's really ignorant and cruel to simply tell a person where it belongs.
Also for all the people that say where art belongs, have you ever seen the blogs that some people make? They don't even put that much time into those and yet all of the art haters don't tell them where it belongs.
