Rules and Guidelines
Please be sure to read and adhere to each rule carefully.
Eorzea Collection is the perfect place for players to share their glamour creations, passion and vision with one another, and it has quickly become FFXIV’s go-to place for players looking for their new in-game fashion look, players looking for inspiration to create their own glamours and even players keeping their personal journal of looks through their adventures in Eorzea.
To accommodate as many playstyles and uses as possible, we strive to maintain a clean catalogue of in-game creations that anyone can peruse. As such, there are a few rules and guidelines you should keep in mind when submitting your creations to the website.

About the Usage of Props
As a definition, a prop is an item or piece of gear that is being held or connected to a character. Items not connected or equipped to a character, like weapons or fashion items on the floor, are not considered props and not subject to these rules.
However, to avoid any potential frustration and confusion, we’ve established a few rules for submitting glamours with props.
Requirements
Allowed
🗸 Items available through the use of emotes
🗸 Items used by NPCs
- Please state in the glamour description that you are using an item not available to players as a prop
🗸 Furniture items
- Please state in the glamour description that you are using a furniture item as prop
🗸 Weapons*
- Please check the Weapon and Gear Manipulation section for specific rules on weapons
Not Allowed
✖ Any prop that might be confused or is being worn like a piece of gear
- Including but not limited to placing props in or behind the character’s head
✖ Any piece of gear or fashion items, excluding weapons
- A piece of gear or fashion item is considered a prop if it’s not being worn as it is supposed to
✖ Using unavailable items as weapons
- Including but not limited to using Limit Break or Diadem weapons
About Custom Backgrounds
Requirements
Not Allowed
✖ Backgrounds that might be confused with in-game location
✖ Backgrounds from any other game
Guidelines for submitting a glamour
About Submitting your Glamour
We’d also like to remind you to fill out the submission form correctly. In order to keep searches on the website as clean and precise as possible, make sure to:
Requirements
Enter the correct job needed to wear your glamour
Select the correct race and gender of your character in the screenshot
Include all gear pieces shown in the screenshot and needed to replicate your glamour
If inspired by another creator, link your glamour to the glamour that inspired it
About Optional & Alternative Items
For example, your glamour might be possible at level 1 except for a level 50 accessory. You can ask yourself “is this vital to the glamour or is it an optional item?” and restrict gender, job and level of your submission accordingly.
If you’d like to add an alternative item to your submission, please do so using the glamour description.
This might give people options to pick from when the original items might make it otherwise impossible for them to use your glamour.
When listing alternative items make sure to include a screenshot of the glamour including said item if:
- The item is visually drastically different from what it would replace
- The item is an entirely different colour
- The item is a weapon option
Duplicate Content
Copies of the same glamour from the same creator, even with different screenshots, will be flagged as duplicate content.
Glamours of full sets of gear with a different weapon or occluded pieces will also be considered a full set and flagged as duplicate content.
Appropriate Content
Code of conduct
Giving Credit and Drawing Inspiration
If you find that a glamour similar to yours has already been posted, you should still submit your entry, as your creative vision is still unique. Different places, poses, lighting, gender, races and gear pieces may serve as inspiration for others, as well as give a better look for others.
If you feel that one of your glamours has been replicated by another user, please make sure to contact our staff directly rather than filing a “duplicate glamour” report. A glamour is a finite collection of items and colors, and that the same gear piece can inspire the same feeling and theme for different people.
Please also be mindful that we expect users to act in good faith and link glamours they were inspired by. However, we will act if we find evidence of malicious behaviour.
Reporting Content
When reporting content, we ask you to consider the following:
Do
🗸 Rather than reporting a majority of the same user’s submissions, consider contacting the staff directly
- This makes it easier for both yourself and the moderators
🗸 Clarify why you are reporting something
- Without a clear reason, the Moogles have to remove reports from submissions that might have something wrong with them
Don't
- Please contact us directly rather than reporting the submission for “Duplicate”, and consult the Giving Credit and Drawing Inspiration section for more info
✖ Avoid publicly posting (i.e our Discord) about reportable submissions
- If you have any questions or issues, please feel free to message our moderators directly.
✖ Do not report people maliciously/falsely
- Incorrect reports happen, however please refrain from doing so intentionally. We might take action against multiple malicious reports
- Please do not go massively reporting other users as a result of being reported yourself, as this will be considered a malicious action subject to a ban
Our staff can be contacted through our Discord or by sending a direct message to our Twitter.
Inflating Likes and Multiple Accounts
We understand this system might make some users think of it as a ranking system, however we ask that users refrain from creating multiple accounts with the sole purpose of inflating their own like count.
Accounts and characters that are found to be used in such a manner will be subject to a ban and have their likes revoked.
Users that are found to be using multiple accounts to inflate their likes in a consecutive and exploiting manner may also be subject to a ban.
If you suspect a user to be inflating their likes, you can report it using the "inflating likes" option.
