DA HOLIDAY ART SWAP 2007 **PAIRS POSTED**

Tue Dec 11, 2007, 2:27 AM
  • Mood: Tired
  • Watching: las manos como yo entinto
  • Playing: con mi tinta :3
  • Drinking: Sangria Señorial
:bulletred:UPDATE: THE LIST IS UP!:bulletred:



:holly: DEVIANTART 2007 HOLIDAY ART SWAP:holly:

Spread the fun!!! Spread the word!!!! Any DeviantArt members can sign up for it, they just need to comment on THIS journal in order for me to put their name on the list. (signup closed)

Please remember to check back here on Tuesday December 11th for the list of pairs!

:holly: It's that time of year! :holly:

The annual Holiday Art Swap was something I participated in last year over at the PencilJack forums, and it inspired me to host one here on DeviantArt. The first annual DeviantArt Holiday Art Swap took place last Christmas with over 80 participating artists!

This year it's off to a late start but the holiday cheer prevails! Because of the late start we've extended the deadline into January so that everyone has over a month to complete the gift for their partner :)



Rules and Explanations:

:bulletred: You sign up for it while signup is open. When signup closes, names will be paired off. The pairs are picked at random from a very cute little snow cap. :aww:

:bulletgreen: Get together with the other person and request something that you'd like each other to draw. It's your responsibility to get in contact with the person you're paired with. An optional part of the gift exchange is asking for a mailing address for your partner (see 3 points down from here).

:bulletred: The goal is to complete the gift for your partner by Christmas, but this year because of the late start, let's say the deadline is January 15th, 2008.

:bulletgreen: When the 25th is past, everyone can start to post scans of their gifts here on DeviantArt and I'll make a whole journal entry with thumbnails so that everyone can show what they got from their fellow deviants.

:bulletred: When you're done, if you are willing and able, something nice to do it to mail the original to your partner in the mail as a physical Christmas gift. A tip is to email them a high resolution scan in time for Christmas though so they can see it and also in case it gets lost in the mail! I understand that some countries are expensive to post mail from, or that the service is unreliable, or just that you might not be able to afford to mail something out. That is why this is optional, but I encourage it. The reason for encouragement is the awesome feeling you give a fellow artist when they open their mail and see something that you made just for them.

:bulletgreen: This is for fun, it's not a contest. But you and your partner will be getting each other's work, so give as good as you hope you will get. Skill level does not matter its the thought that counts!

:bulletred: Spread the fun! Spread the word! Any DeviantArt members can sign up for it, they just need to comment on THIS journal in order for me to put their name on the list.

:holly: HAPPY HOLIDAYS! :holly:
