Hey, make sure you set your group admin permissions to "Subject to Vote" or "Are Not Allowed". There has been two notorious group hijackers for over a month now who apply as a co-founders, delete all the artwork in the gallery and favorites, and replace it with gore, scat and porn.
As an example:
www.deviantart.com/toonami-for…
(the disgusting stuff has since been removed, but the galleries have been completely wiped out)

I believe this group is no longer active so it's not worth being a member and contributing art. It's simply a gallery of past work which is worth viewing but not being a member of.

Thank You for adding me. I do have a question.  If I draw a picture from the 1860's that doesn't have any info how do you give them credit for the photo or art?
