Outline

Chip 'n' Dale Online, also known by its abbreviation "CnD Online", is a website of content relating to Chip 'n' Dale Rescue Rangers and the classic Chip 'n' Dale Shorts. It was first launched on February 2nd, 2006, and over time the website has grown into a large portal of Chip 'n' Dale related media and social interactivity. The sole designer, developer, maintainer and administrator is Ducky.

Available in the image gallery are a large number of screen captures (each sorted according to episode), sketches, concept artworks, model sheets, promotional materials and wallpapers.

Users can easily upload and present their fan works into the Community Gallery, inside a personal gallery or an appropriate specialised category.

This important feature was unavailable for a short time during the transition of the forums to phpBB3, but as of Spring 2008, the Community Gallery has been restored.

Rules

Like almost any internet forum, Chip 'n' Dale Online has a set of rules to which members are required to adhere. The following is taken from the official rule thread [1], as it stood at the August 7th, 2008:

1. No excessive cursing, descriptions of extreme violence, or obscene sexual content.
Keep things as clean as possible. While the chances of a young child participating in the forums is remote, other members of the forum may still be offended by the use of excessively foul language, and graphic or vulgar depictions/descriptions of violence or sexual situations. Use common sense. Any posts or images made for the sole purpose of being "shocking" or offensive will be deleted.
2. No flaming, trolling, harassing, or baiting other guests.
Flaming is the hostile and insulting interaction between users, which is not constructive, does not clarify a discussion, nor does it persuade others into agreeing with a certain position. Flame wars usually involve at least one person who believes that their opinion is the only valid one. Trolling means to make posts or threads for the intended purpose of starting an argument, while baiting is any post intended to make another user resort to flaming. Harassment means following a user or group of users around through multiple threads to flame them, bait them, or otherwise cause them to want to avoid the boards because of a user's actions towards them.
3. No bickering in the public forums, or insulting other members.
I do not want to see any excessive quarreling between members on the public forums. A good debate is just fine, but personally insulting the person you're debating with is not. If you have a problem with someone, you can take it up with them in private, or contact one of the moderators.
4. No hate speech.
No racial slurs, religious discrimination, sexism, homophobic remarks, etc. Chip 'n' Dale Online is open and welcoming to everyone, and we plan on keeping it that way.
5. This is not the Anti-Cafe.
Any public bashing or insulting of the Acorn Cafe or its members will not be tolerated.
6. Post in the correct sections.
"Feedback & Suggestions" is for providing feedback and suggestions about the site, "Rescue Rangers" is for discussing the Rescue Rangers, "Chip 'n' Dale Fan Craftings" is for sharing and discussing any Chip 'n' Dale related fan art or fiction, etc. If you are unsure where to post, try Chit Chat. If you post in the wrong section, your thread may be moved to the proper forum with or without notification.
7. Respect the Moderators
When I'm not around the moderators are in charge. Their job is to assist me with running the forum, and that includes enforcing the rules and making decisions on my behalf when I'm not around to handle a situation. I trust their judgment and expect their authority to be recognized and respected.
In a Nutshell
Basically what this all comes down to is play nice, respect other members, use common sense, and have fun.</code>
