* For a different kind of fan art also see [http://www.vgboxart.com/ vgboxart], a site/community that focuses on the creation of Fan Art in the form of covers. It started as a site for video game boxes (hence the name), but now it can be described as generalentertainmentboxart as works vary from games to movies to books. All sorts of [[Cover Tropes]] apply for the fan work seen there, a lot of uploads are actually good, and a select few are much better than the official packaging seen in stores.

* As mentioned above, a lot of webcomics have [[Fan Art]] sections. For example, [http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/art.html Gunnerkrigg Court], [http://community.910cmx.com/index.php?showforum=111 El Goonish Shive] and [http://zapinspace.com/fan_art.html Zap!].

* A notorious historical example was a couple of ''[[Snow White (Disney)|Snow White]]'' fan-drawings found in an old cellar. They were found in Norway, dated to the late 30s, and were signed by a talented amateur artist called "[[Adolf Hitler|Adolf H.]]"...

* Averted ''hard'' for ''[[Ctrl Alt Del]]'': A fan once made a little CGI movie using Tim Buckley's characters for a school assignment and Buckley ''threatened him with a lawsuit'' because he wanted to save his artwork for [[The Animated Series]]. Oddly, there was an earlier post from Buckley saying it's okay to make fanart... Naturally this only pushes the [[Hatedom]] to new heights of hilarity (usually involving a [[Convenient Miscarriage|"Loss]] Edit").

* A remarkable amount for ''[[Kim Possible]]'', encompassing [[Intercontinuity Crossover|crossovers]], the KP cast in other roles, [[Continuation Fic|Kim and Ron in the future]] (in college, married, with kids, or just older) and a ''lot'' of Kim and [[Foe Yay|her nemesis Shego]] in a [[Les Yay|lesbian relationship]]. Curiously, though [[Rule 34]] obviously applies, the last often tends toward being [[WAFF|cute]] rather than overtly sexual.
