Welcome to Visions of Darkness!

Greetings! I'm your host, Nyghtfall3D.

ABOUT US

We're an adults-only message board where visual artists can share and discuss their work. Though we welcome traditional art (sketches, drawings, paintings) our primary focus is on computer- generated, 3D-rendered images made with apps like Daz Studio, Poser, Blender, et al.

If you prefer writing than rendering, we also have a section for writers. Details are outlined in the forum structure below.

OUR GOAL

VoD offers a vibrant, forum-based community environment where freedom of expression is valued and mature art can be enjoyed with as few restrictions as possible. The content here is created by adults, for adults.

We welcome a wide range of subjects, including portraits, landscapes, still life, pin-ups, nudity, violence, and death.

As an artist, you can post whatever you want as long as it doesn't violate our ToS.

As a viewer, you must be prepared to see content you may find distasteful. Rest assured, none of it is real.

REGISTRATION

Because of the adult nature of the site, and to protect member privacy, registration is required to access its content. You must use a valid email address. You'll be sent a confirmation email after your registration is manually approved.

NEW MEMBER MODERATION

I want to maintain a friendly atmosphere here. I also want to keep unsavory elements out. The registration form has an anti-spam measure built in. As an extra layer of precaution, your first few posts will require moderator approval by me. Once I've verified you're human, you'll be granted standard access.

NOTE: Promotion to standard access is not instantaneous. The system runs an hourly event that automatically promotes users who've met the requisite number of approved posts.

FORUM STRUCTURE

Our forum structure is laid out as follows:

Member Lobby
