News + Weekly Gallery Highlight

We have started a points collection to raise funds to renew our supergroup subscription so we can bring you great features, highlights and specials.

ALL DONATIONS through this collection will be used to renew our supergroup status. If we get more donations than we need, the extra will be used as prizes in a contest.
To donate, go to MyntKat's profile, the collection is at the top right. Thank you so much for your support!
You can get points here www.deviantart.com/account/poi… and here llamatrade.deviantart.com/

The Community Relations team will be working in the followings weeks to merge, remove, add and retire sub-categories. We're looking for input from the community to think about ways to make the categories less redundant and to simplify it's structure for easier browsing and submitting.
More details on the Gallery Makeover Project here moonbeam13.deviantart.com/jour…
Your input is needed. Leave a comment on the journal maytel.deviantart.com/journal/…

Talty posted an important warning about people conning artists into sending them their work or money in exchange for a positive review. Please, read the article and bear in mind that there are dishonest people out there and that you should take care who you are sending your work for review to talty.deviantart.com/journal/A…



We decided to highlight some of the best submissions to the group gallery every week. I'll go with 25 featured submissions per week. This selection is purely subjective and represents my favorite submissions to our galleries. If you disagree with my selection, please feel free to go to our galleries and any deviation you enjoy, artists also appreciate comments on their works! Spread the love!



Again, this was a selection of my favorite submissions and does not represent a qualitative or artistic evaluation!

_{If you would like to help the group by writing features such as this or anything else, please get in touch with me via note to the group and let me know what you would like to contribute and how often (for example a weekly feature of 20 deviations from the group galleries or a monthly article written about something craft related). We are always looking for fresh blood.}
