:star: This program has been discontinued, please disregard this journal. :star: 

10/22/14- Some bloodline foals will now be activity checked until they are ranked a specific rank in the WD or TS (I will tell you what rank that is upon adoption). This goes for adoptions AND breedings! The list of people who do not need to take part in activity checks are not immune to this rule.

9/10/14- As of now, after you purchase a design of mine, the horses reference is due in a week! No longer a month.

6/5/14- I have decided to change the rules a bit, hopefully making y'all a bit more happy :hug: Instead of needing to draw the horse 5 times before I stop doing activity checks on it, I changed it to 3 drawings. Now, after you draw the horse (yourself) 3 times, I will no longer preform activity checks on it.

5/25/14- Some of you might hate me for this, some of you might love me for this. I have decided that my best friends should get special privileges over random people and people that I am not super close with. So, to reward my friends for being, well, my friends.. and for sticking through with me, I have decided that the designs they buy from me will not be included in ANY activity checks. 
:pointr: The horse may still be reclaimed if you don't post the reference within the deadline given 
:pointr: After the reff is posted, I wont reclaim the design from you for inactivity. I would still like to know when its drawn so I can +Fav, though <3
:pointr: If the design is not drawn within a year, I will send you a gentle nudge to see if you still want it.
:pointr: My other rules still apply! Do not resell without permission, etc, etc.
The Following people do not have to take part in WBS Acivity Checks:

5/25/15- :new: I will also no longer be posting the reclaimed designs in this journal. If you want to see current sales, go to my sales folder in my Gallery.

-------------------------

If I have not +favd one of your pictures that have my design in it, PLEASE show it to me so I can +fav it!!


I have decided to change something about my activity checks: After you draw the design for the <s>5th</s> 3rd time (including its reference, if it is a new image by you), I will no longer check it in the design checks. Therefore, I will not take it away if you are inactive with it after the <s>5th</s> 3rd complete image you draw of it (so no cluster drawing on the same page will count towards this- cluster drawings will count as 1 drawing towards this. Otherwise, they have to be separate, complete images- full body or head shot). However, if the design is not drawn in a substantially long time (for example, a year), I will give you a kind nudge to make sure you are still interested in the design. 

I would like to make an up-to-date information sheet about my rules of adoption and activity checks, as well as keep log of my sold horses. Hopefully you will find this sheet informative :heart:

:star: Rules :star:

My rules are always as follows, and certain Adoptions may have additional rules that will be posted on the Deviation:
:bulletpurple: To bid on Auction Sales, reply to the highest bidder. All other comments will be hidden.
:bulletpurple: The highest bidder by the deadline wins. I have the right to not give up the horse if I don't think the amount is good enough.
:bulletpurple: Only bid if you have the points please. If you don't have the points, the design will go to the runner up. 
:bulletpurple: The design shown can be the design of the horse on either side. For example, just because all these markings are on the right side of the horse here, that doesn't mean that you cant make it the same on the left or simply make this side be whats on the right instead.
:bulletpurple: The breed, gender, personality is your choice, unless stated otherwise.
:bulletred: GIVE ME CREDIT FOR THE DESIGN!! Linking back to the adoption page to show the original design would be nice, too. To give me credit put: 
-Design (c) happy-horse-for-life 
-if you dont know how to do that, you put :dev angry-horse-for-life: without the space. Proper credit is a MUST. Tagging me in the reff page as credit will also notify me, so you do not have to send me a link to the reference since I will be notified.
:bulletpurple: Draw the horses reference within a week (I will tell you your deadline) Again, you MUST credit me properly for the design on the Deviation!
:bulletred: Must have WBS prefix if designed by me, unless otherwise stated.
:bulletpurple: I am entitled to free breedings to the horse upon request. 
:bulletpurple: The horse MUST be registered in HARPG-The-WD if its a western horse, or Thoroughbred-Society if it is a Thoroughbred, and HARPGs-Best-Foals if it is a foal. Please keep your design active, but I do understand that one horse can't be your entire priority. I just love to see my designs active~
:bulletpurple: Horses are to be kept active. I will be checking once every 3 months to make sure the design is being drawn (see activity check below) until 3 images are drawn by you of the design.
:bulletred: ALWAYS ask my permission before re-selling the design. I may want it back, but if I dont, then I will allow you to re-sell it.
:bulletpurple: I will reclaim the horse without a refund if I feel you arent following any of my rules. 

:star: Activity Checks :star:

 
I will be checking for activity on the following months out of the coming years (this applies to ALL of my designs I have sold):
-January
-April
-July
-October

I will be checking for activity of my design.. That means I will be looking for some form of art has to be completed of the design by the time I check it. To make this easier on me, please include the horses full name in the Key Words of the Deviation when you upload it. Also, include ALL art of the horse documented on its reference information (with working links). If, upon inspection, no form of art has been uploaded since the last activity check, I will contact you through note informing you that you are in danger of having the design reclaimed and we can talk from there. If no art is produced by the agreed deadline, the design will be reclaimed and possibly placed back up for sale. You will always have the option to re-purchase the design.

--------------------------------------

:star: Sold Designs Under Watch :star:

These designs have been sold, but have not been drawn 3 times yet. And so, I will be looking to them for the coming activity checks. If you know you wont have art of the design up in time, note me and we can easily work something out! However, if you are no longer interested in owning the design, note me, and we will figure something out.


:star: Sold Designs :star:

These designs have been sold, and drawn at least 3 times or were sold to friends that don't require activity checks, so I will not be activity checking them anymore. However, if they are not drawn in a year, I will give a kind nudge. If you are no longer interested in owning the design, note me, and we will figure something out.

:star: MIA :star:


The owners of these horses are MIA. Not sure what I am going to do with these designs yet. For now they are on 'hold' from Activity Checks. It would not be fair to remove a horse from someone who hasn't been posting any art on DA for a while.

Hey there! Just want to make sure I'm not violating any of your rules before I officially become the new owner. 

I will be adopting
  JAs WBS Chocolate Milk With Caramel by Floodwave  
Adoptable Set 07 3/6 OPEN! by angry-horse-for-life #5

I will keep your prefix however the breed & name will be changed. It will become a "barn pony" and will be pasture mates with my thoroughbreds. It will be an appendix breed as a Paint horse cross. 

EDIT:

Adoptable Set 06 CLOSED by angry-horse-for-life
The same goes for #5 above. This design was a part of a design trade.
