# NFT Elements

**Understanding Elements on OpenMeme: From Internet Finds to Original Creations**

At OpenMeme, elements can be sourced in two distinct ways:

**1. Internet-Sourced Elements**: These are elements picked up from the vast expanse of the internet. While you can submit any element that hasn't been previously added, it's crucial not to claim ownership unless it's genuinely your creation.

**2. Original Elements**: Proud of a meme or graphic you've crafted? Submit it as an original! These elements undergo a different approval process and are distinctly showcased in both the open collection and the generator.

**The Submission Process**:

1. **Submit Your Element**: Whether it's an internet find or an original creation, start by submitting it.
2. **Await Validator Approval**: Our team of validators will review your submission to ensure it meets our criteria.
3. **Minting**: Once approved, head over to your profile to mint the element. Do note that minting requires GAS fees.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://openmeme-1.gitbook.io/openmeme.io/overview/nft-elements.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
