Gallery Categories

These are the categories that user galleries may fall under. Users who upload can select their gallery's category before uploading and change any gallery's category at any time via their Maintain Galleries interface. Categories may be changed by other users via the tagging system.

Categories

Doujinshi

Commonly self published H-manga of asian origin that are very often based off of or parody formalized content sources. Such sources include anime, manga, video games, and other products that have anime-like characters or mascots (such as the synthesizer Vocaloid). Does NOT refer to western comics even if they follow the same format.

Manga

H-Manga or just Manga for short in the context used on this site, are published works almost always of original content by an asian artist or circle. It is common to see multiple H-manga serialized in larger magazines.

Artist CG

Computer generated artwork sets, often similar to a manga but typically in full color and appear less hand-drawn. Does NOT refer to a batch of various works from a single artist, it must be a particular set which is sold or distributed as such.

Game CG

Computer generated work, often frames from Eroge (erotic games), and tend to have a very large number of images for a gallery. Does NOT refer to images of video game characters or in-game screenshots of video games.

Western

All drawn art of a pornographic nature and of western origin whether they are images or comics.

Non-H

Doujinshi / Manga and other anime / manga-style drawings that are NOT pornographic in nature. The Western equivalent of this is the Miscellaneous category.

Image Set

Image Sets are a generic gallery. They are largely for drawn content of Japanese origin but that are not Manga or Doujinshi. Images within such galleries are preferred to have a singular theme (e.g. a particular artist, a particular series' character(s), or a particular fetish). The Western equivalent of this is the Western category.

Cosplay

Real people who dress up as characters in anime, manga, and video games for general posing (non-nude galleries are acceptable) or for sexual purposes. A nude asian woman dressed as a generic nurse or maid and not as a character falls under the Asian Porn category.

Asian Porn

Asian pornography of almost any kind. Does NOT allow for non-asians of any kind, male-only porn, fat women, old women, or any drawn porn based on Asian models. Non-nude galleries are not permitted unless they fall under the Cosplay category or appeal to a second fetish. The amount of GP earned from these galleries is reduced to 50% of what an uploader would usually receive.

Miscellaneous

Mostly the dumping place for unrelated content. Sometimes this category is used for very small galleries, or is commonly misused when another category is more appropriate. All of the following fall under this category:

• 3D galleries
• Non-pornographic Western galleries
• Figure/figurine galleries
• Paperchild galleries

The amount of GP earned from these galleries is reduced to 25% of what an uploader would usually receive.

Private

In order to create a private gallery, you must either have a Bronze Star or higher. Alternatively, you must have at least 100 posts on the forums, outside of the Free Speech Zone, Spamhaus, and Test subforums. Though not a formal category, private galleries are galleries that the user has opted not to share with the rest of the E-Hentai Gallery community. They are often personal galleries, re-uploads of other galleries that the user wanted for themselves, galleries they only want their friends to visit, etc. The amount of GP earned from private galleries is reduced to 10% of what an uploader would usually receive.

Note that the "doujinshi" definition isn't complete, e.g. Story galleries from Pixiv also qualify.

Limits

There is a limit to the number of "Misc galleries" you can have. Reaching this limit hinders your ability to make galleries of any category. Included in this limit are Miscellaneous, Non-H, Asian Porn, and Western galleries. The amount of these galleries you are allowed to create are as follows:

• 5 base
• +1 for every ~8 days registered, up to a maximum of 95 after 2 years
• +25 per level of "Misc Posting" trained in the HentaiVerse, up to a maximum of 500
• A star bonus depending on your donation aura
  • +25 for Bronze, +50 for Silver, +100 for Gold, +200 for Tristar, +300 for Quintstar, +400 for Septuastar, +500 for Catgirl
