Maybe make it obligatory to post the original artwork in case it wasn't a custom, so it's easier for it to be constructively criticized. But prohibiting anything that isn't a custom or a super-complex edit sounds very counter-productive to me.
Edit - My 100th post after two years, hooray.
I fully support this idea, I'd probably prefer a different (more lenient) section in the spriting forum for people to post edits and stuff, cause it'll probably be a lot cleaner if there was still some form of distinction, forum-wise, between completely original works and those that are mildly/strongly derived from others.
The one rule that I fully agree on from this post is that, if people post edits or sprites that aren't entirely self made, they always post the base/reference material clearly, because I find it impossible to judge when I can't see what a sprite used to look like.
