Artist Relations Newsletter - February 21, 2008

$Moonbeam13:iconMoonbeam13: reports, February 21


:pointr: Director of Artist Relations
:iconmoonbeam13:


Hello!

The purpose of Artist Relations is to strengthen the community spirit as well as network with fellow artists so that we may bring outside opportunities to you, and help you to hone your skills. The Gallery Directors are the first people you should go to regarding your galleries. They are the people you need to make gallery suggestions to, and ask questions about your specific genre, or seek knowledge from. They also act as your lifeline to the administration. They are here to support and listen, and I can tell you we've got incredibly talented, devoted and passionate people on this team, so get to know them!

:bulletgreen: With a heavy heart we saw `RockGirl1582 leave the team due to real life restrictions. Join us in thanking her and wishing her the best :heart:

:bulletgreen: NEWBS! Well new gallery directors and we have them in droves ;D Please welcome to the team:
^Grandchild - Visualizations
^Staged - General Photography
^lyastri - Stock Photography
^Ikue - Vector
^lemontea - Vector
^baKIN 3-Dimensional
^Bloodredsangre - 3 Dimensional
^lovetodeviate - Literature
^jbensch - Handhelds
^DVeditor - Film
^LiAiL - Film

Please take some time, say hi and get to know them :) You can also read about how the 3D gallery directors were selected here :giggle:


:bulletgreen: Once again we need to discuss disagreeing with daily deviations and how to do it properly. Posting cruel, harassing comments on an artists' page because you don't think they should have gotten a daily deviation is immature and uncalled for. If you don't agree with a daily deviation, contact the gallery director who chose it, or send a note to me. With almost 51 million pieces of artwork, I can guarantee you that you won't like them all. Open your minds, be respectful and don't be goons to your fellow artists. FAQ #873: What do I do when I disapprove of a Daily Deviation feature? is your friend.

:bulletgreen: The Professional Artist - Featured Chat Series is beginning with our first artist ^cosmosue When and Where? Read about it here

:bulletgreen: =Comicslist is a great resource for comics on deviantART! go check it out :)

:bulletgreen: There's a brand new Anthro Forum Enjoy!

:bulletgreen: Support ~stitch52481's marathon against Leukemia and Lymphoma - learn more here

:bulletgreen: *collab-da is over 1000 members!! We've opened up a chatroom at #dAcollab so you can all get together, be sure to join in the fun! Together we're going to create some amazing things :party:

:bulletgreen: Revisiting a Very Twisting Subject

:bulletgreen: ^Nico1 is running an ID contest here

:bulletgreen: Cooley's CSS contest - got some skill? get involved!

:bulletgreen: Film, Film, Film!! If you haven't gotten involved in the film webring or heard about Ani-jam you need to get yourselves over to ^deviantartfilm and get educated and involved!

:bulletgreen: We started a project called Project Educate, late last year and it will be starting again shortly. Be prepared to learn new things, get involved in contests and of course ^shell4art's famous scavenger hunts!

:bulletgreen: Looking for a news item? Maybe you missed an edition of the newsletter? Can't remember where things are? Bookmark The News Database and stay informed! ^DCZed rocks :heart:

:bulletgreen: *ItDoesNotHaveMe needs your support! Send in information pertaining to awareness days, weeks etc so we can build up our resources. Thank you :heart:

:bulletgreen: Please help out my team by sending your daily deviation suggestions to one person only. There is great confusion caused when you suggest the same piece to multiple gallery directors. We appreciate it :)
