Description How to submit without getting rejected.


Why can't we have more turns sooner or everyone just submits once a month?

Because we have more than 10,000 members.

Once a month from even half of that is 5000 submissions and then there are only about 30 days in a month.

Do the math.

We did.

:V It depends on the mod.

I personally wouldn't approve it though, since it looks unfinished to me, but that's me.

Would one make any exceptions with devID...? I tend to make several pixelled images etc, and then compile them into one image for my devID. This actually makes it a better choice than most of my work.
So long as a deviD is artistically 'viable', as it were, is it possible one would be accepted, or is this a no-exceptions-no-matter-what deal?

TwinEnigma In reply to Emotikonz [2010-10-19 02:55:43 +0000 UTC]

No, we want to just see the individual stuff, not an ID.

To be honest, though, there aren't very many pixelled images coming through, so yours will stand out.

Emotikonz In reply to TwinEnigma [2010-10-19 03:58:36 +0000 UTC]

What is the submission limit then...? Because several images altogther in the ID is ideal if only can be submitted.

TwinEnigma In reply to Emotikonz [2010-10-19 04:03:41 +0000 UTC]

1 per turn

Emotikonz In reply to TwinEnigma [2010-10-19 05:18:51 +0000 UTC]

*cough* Then in that case... well, I don't know what I should do; it seems impractical to combine them as a separate image because the detracts attention from the originals.

Damn.

Thanks anyway

Wait a minute... your solution to not overwhelming watchers is to only allow people to submit once a year? Wouldn't that just result in a MASSIVE influx of submissions two days a month?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

TwinEnigma In reply to Militant-Jester [2010-10-19 02:54:23 +0000 UTC]

Nope. We know submissions time out after a certain amount of time, so we break members into groups that are allowed to submit once a month. They take their turn and then wait about six months before they can submit again. Meanwhile, we space approving their submissions out to about 20 a day over the course of a month.

Hmm OK I see... sad that you can only go every six months D: I understand why though.

TwinEnigma In reply to Maveritt [2010-09-11 21:56:50 +0000 UTC]

The list of people who are going this weekend is posted on our group profile.

When the countdown resumes on Monday, you'll see the proper links for the whole list pop up again.

Q: Where can I see which letter is the letter of the week?
A: It is stated at the front page.

I am a "T" deviant - woo hoo my turn. I made a submission over a day ago. I was just wondering if it takes time for a submission to be accepted.

TwinEnigma In reply to ToysoldierThor [2010-09-11 18:13:10 +0000 UTC]

It takes a bit, yeah. Each submission needs 5 votes to enter and we stagger submissions so you guys don't get flooded inboxes.

I actually like this system because it gives the artist a moment to think about what is their best work. Helps me to appreciate the time and work I put into making that piece.

I was wondering about the submission rules - but now it all makes sense. Holy sh*t!

Is 1/month the biggest time rate they give you? I mean 1/6months or 1/year would certainly do the trick for super big groups like this one. Ever talked to dA about it? *just curious*

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

TwinEnigma In reply to Pretty-Angel [2010-06-20 23:28:37 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, 1/month is the biggest rate they allow us.

I'll try to suggest it, but IDK if dA would ever implement something like that.

TwinEnigma In reply to NamikazeH4 [2010-06-19 19:23:25 +0000 UTC]

Okay, pick your deviation.

On the right hand side there should be a thing that says "Submit to group"

Click it.

Type in UnseenArtists.

It'll automatically go to the featured folder when you click accept.

I tend to get scared doing stuff without knowing if what I did is right or wrong so yea, I had to ask /perfectionist.
So it's that way? I guess the contribute thingy is wrong. >//

TwinEnigma In reply to NamikazeH4 [2010-06-19 20:00:19 +0000 UTC]

That works too, but it's sometimes easier to do it directly from the image you want to submit.
