We have kept the rules consistent about pictures (pretty much everyone tries to bend them XD) but yes, you need a real picture. The face claim is just for us to see what your character's face and/or body shape is like. Obviously, it will be hard to find one single perfect image, feel free to include supplemental pictures of what the ears/tail would like like, much like I included Kiara's wings separately and had to describe her skin tone separately, that kind of thing.

TLDR: Yes, real pictures only. Supplemental pictures can be included and the written description is for further clarification on appearance.
