Monthly Creative Challenge
Every month we pick a theme and challenge the community to push their creative limits. Winners get featured on our homepage and social channels.
Create landscapes that defy reality. Think floating mountains, inverted oceans, crystalline forests, impossible geometries, or dreamscapes that merge multiple biomes into one scene.
Rules: All entries must be generated on ZSky AI using any available model (photorealistic, stylized, or ZSky's video engine for video). Include your prompt in the submission. One entry per person per day. No post-processing outside of ZSky AI.
Prizes: 1st place receives a homepage feature + creator spotlight + social amplification. 2nd and 3rd place receive creator spotlights and social amplification. Top 10 entries featured in our gallery and social channels.
Deadline: March 31, 2026 at 11:59 PM UTC
How to enter: Share your creation on Discord in the #monthly-challenge channel or post on Twitter/X with the hashtag #ZSkySurreal.

Community Guidelines
We want ZSky AI to be a welcoming, inspiring, and safe space for all creators. Please follow these guidelines across all our community channels.
- Be respectful and constructive. Treat every community member with kindness. Constructive feedback is welcome; personal attacks, harassment, and discrimination are not tolerated.
- Share prompts generously. Our community thrives when creators help each other. Share your prompts, techniques, and workflows openly. We all learn faster together.
- Credit and attribute. If you build on someone else's prompt or technique, give them credit. Collaboration is encouraged; passing off others' work as your own is not.
- Follow content policies. All shared content must comply with ZSky AI's content policy. NSFW content is only permitted in designated channels with proper tags.
- No spam or self-promotion abuse. Sharing your work is great. Repeatedly posting links, soliciting sales, or spamming channels will result in a warning and potential ban.
- Report issues, don't retaliate. If you see content or behavior that violates our guidelines, report it to moderators. Do not engage in public arguments or vigilante moderation.
- Respect intellectual property. Do not use ZSky AI to replicate copyrighted characters, logos, or branded content. Create original work that you can be proud of.
- Have fun and experiment. This is a creative community first. Try new things, push boundaries (within guidelines), and celebrate each other's discoveries.
Community FAQ
Everything creators typically ask before joining. Still have a question? Ask in the Discord — a moderator or the founder will answer.
What is the ZSky AI community?
A free, creator-first home for 50,000+ AI artists, photographers, filmmakers, designers, and hobbyists. It lives across Discord, Reddit, TikTok, YouTube, and the on-site Explore feed — the creator-first alternative to algorithmic social platforms. Part of the Art Without Permission movement.
Is the community free to join?
Yes. 100% free across every channel. A free ZSky account unlocks posting to Explore, following creators, entering challenges, and commenting. No credit card, no trial, no paywall on participation.
Where does the community live?
On-site: Explore (public gallery), creator profiles, My Creations, follow/like feeds. Off-site: Discord for real-time chat, Reddit r/zskyai for long-form, TikTok and YouTube @zskyai for video drops, Twitter/X @zskyai for announcements.
How do monthly challenges work?
Read the monthly theme in the Discord #challenges channel, create your entry on zsky.ai/create, and post with the challenge tag. Winners receive creator spotlights and homepage features.
Can I share and remix prompts?
Yes. Every public piece on the Explore feed shows its generation prompt — tap Remix on any one to start from that prompt. The Discord has dedicated #prompt-share rooms for deeper workflows.
Can I follow creators and build a feed?
Every creator has a public profile at zsky.ai/@username. Hit Follow to see their creations chronologically in your Following feed. Unlike algorithmic platforms, you see what you chose to see — no algorithm demoting your creators.
Is the community safe for work?
Yes. Strict SFW policy enforced by multi-layer AI content moderation plus human moderators. Reports triaged within 24 hours. Harassment, impersonation, and NSFW are not permitted.
Can I get real feedback on my art?
Yes. Discord #feedback and #work-in-progress rooms are full of working photographers, filmmakers, and designers giving composition, lighting, and color feedback — the same notes you'd get on a real editorial set.
What does “Art Without Permission” mean?
The belief that everyone has the right to create beauty and share it — without gatekeepers, without waitlists, without paywalls on participation, without algorithmic suppression. Founded by Cemhan Biricik, a photographer who healed from a traumatic brain injury through creating, and who built ZSky to make that same access universal.
Can I use community-shared art commercially?
Anything you create on ZSky is yours to use commercially on every plan including free. Remixing a public piece creates a new work that you own. Crediting the original prompt author is a community norm, not a legal requirement.
