Going by an older staff answer, you can’t create subdomains of a free subdomain like `veltary.rf.gd`. That would explain why it isn’t in the dropdown.

That answer says subdomains can only be created in the Subdomains menu. The only domains you can create them under are the free domains we provide and your own domains added as Addon Domains. Here’s the topic:

The Subdomains section also lets you add more free subdomains to an account, such as another name under `rf.gd`. Each one gets its own separate `htdocs` directory, so you could register two separate free names for your two pages. That’s covered in this article:

In general, a subdomain is a domain which is a part of another domain name. So if you have the domain name [example.com](http://example.com), then [test.example.com](http://test.example.com) would be a subdomain of [example.com](http://example.com). And similarly, [sub.test.example.com](http://sub.test.example.com) is a subdomain of both [example.com](http://example.com) and [test.example.com](http://test.example.com). In your control panel, the Subdomains section allows you t…

What I can’t explain is `golden-devs.rf.gd`. Your account already has subdomains under it, which looks like the same situation, and that article doesn’t say why it works there. Did you create those subdomains recently, or a while ago? If it was a while ago, that may be the difference. If it was recent, tell me where you picked `golden-devs.rf.gd` in the Subdomains dropdown.
