PROMOTION
• WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A 'PROMOTION', 'NON-GRAPHICS' AND 'GRAPHICS' COMM?
A 'promotion' comm is a community specifically for promoting other communities, such as _lj_promo_ for starters.
A 'non-graphics' comm is a community that isn't specifically for graphics. So basically, any community that isn't specifically for some kind of graphics (in general or fandom related), isn't a promotion community, or your own community -- would fall under this. Such examples would be doctorwho, ohnotheydidnt, mal_inara or gossipgirlfan for starters.
A 'graphics' comm is a community where you specifically post graphics. Such examples would be icons, icons_r_us, hp_icons, spn_het_arts, buffy_graphics or picspam_love for starters.
