Rules for sharing

People share collections here that they made or have the right to share. Before you share yours, check that this holds for every file in it.

What you can share

  • Collections you made in Atlas: adventures, maps, tokens, templates and game systems.
  • Art, maps and text you made yourself.
  • Work by other people when its licence lets you share it, such as a Creative Commons licence. Name the author and the licence in the credits.
  • Rules text from a game's free reference document, under the licence its publisher gives it.

What you cannot share

  • Scans or photos of books.
  • Rulebook text beyond a line or two, unless its licence allows more.
  • Asset packs you paid for, and tokens or maps made from them, also when you changed them.
  • Sexual content.
  • Extreme gore.
  • Likenesses of real people.
  • Symbols of banned or hateful groups.

Credits

Every listing names one licence. When your collection holds art or text by someone else, write in the credits who made it, where it comes from and its licence. Some licences ask for an exact credit line. Copy it as the publisher wrote it.

Cairn

Cairn by Yochai Gal is under CC BY-SA 4.0. You can share its rules text, creatures and items. Credit Yochai Gal and the licence, and share your collection under CC BY-SA 4.0 as well.

How sharing works

You share a collection by uploading the zip that Atlas exports on Share a collection. When you publish, you confirm that you made what is in it, or that you may share it under the licence you pick.

A program checks every upload before anyone can download it. It looks at each file for anything that could harm a vault and refuses a bundle that holds such a file. It names the file and says what to change. No person reads your collection first.

A loot base you share may hold table, list and card views with filters by folder or by tag, without formulas, summaries of your own or pictures on its cards.

We act on reports. When someone reports a listing, a person looks at it. Someone who keeps sharing work they have no right to share cannot share here any more.

When a listing breaks the rules

A listing that breaks the rules is removed, and its page says why. Someone who keeps breaking the rules cannot share here any more. To report a listing, for example when it holds your own work without your permission, use Report on its page, or write to support@atlas-vtt.dev.

Reviews

Write about the collection and how it played at your table. You can review a collection once, after you downloaded it while signed in, and change your review whenever you like.

Do not review your own work, also not through another account. Do not write a review for a reward, a swap or a favour, and do not ask for one. Leave out other people's personal details, insults and threats, and links that sell something.

Reviews that break these rules are hidden. The person who wrote one gets the reasons by mail and can object. Creators cannot hide reviews of their own work; they can reply once to each and report one that breaks the rules.
