#Unique-Equines

Group for Unique Equine Lovers

Equine Group Moderators needed.

Wed May 8, 2013, 9:25 AM
I am in need of Moderators for the following groups:

:iconunique-equines:

Moderating #Unique-Equines is mostly submission approval/rejections.  From time to time we get affiliate requests as well which require approval/rejection votes.  As a Moderator you would have the option to invite art work to the group gallery though it is not necessary if you did not want to do this, we also collect news from the Equine community each month to feature in our article that comes out on the 1st of each month.  

Ideal candidates will:
:bulletred: know our group rules (listed on our front page)
:bulletred: be able to write in English (for backroom discussions as well as potentially having to explain to a member why their piece was rejected)
:bulletred: be familiar with the group platform (this is not a must but it does help)
:bulletred: be a team player (you absolutely must be able to work well within a team setting as we tend to work together as a unit of moderators)
:bulletred: be active (I would prefer to bring people on who can vote at least once a day)
:bulletred: be comfortable telling someone why their piece was rejected (this is something that we can help with if you are unsure of the wording)
:bulletred: be comfortable with tie breaking votes as these do happen from time to time in this group
:bulletred: be comfortable giving input on situations/ideas
:bulletred: be able to link to any Equine related news on dA that you find while browsing

Interested individuals may either note me directly at ^Astralseed or you may note #Unique-Equines.



:iconstylizedequines:

Moderating #StylizedEquines is mostly submission approval/rejections.  Though at this point I am looking to add one or two admins who can help move the group forward.  The groups original intent was to help other Equine Artists find their own personal style of drawing and as such, I'd like for the group to run challenges and or post blogs that can help artists with that.  

Ideal candidates will:
:bulletblack: know our group rules (listed on our front page)
:bulletblack: be able to write in English (for backroom discussions as well as potentially having to explain to a member why their piece was rejected)
:bulletblack: be familiar with the group platform (this is not a must but it does help)
:bulletblack: be a team player (you absolutely must be able to work well within a team setting as we tend to work together as a unit of moderators)
:bulletblack: be active (I would prefer to bring people on who can vote at least once a day)
:bulletblack: be comfortable telling someone why their piece was rejected (this is something that we can help with if you are unsure of the wording)
:bulletblack: be comfortable giving input on situations/ideas
:bulletblack: be able to write useful blogs/articles for the group and or help organize challenges.  

If you feel that you'd be able to help with challenges or useful blogs/articles for the group and want to be a part of the admin team for #StylizedEquines you can either note me directly at ^Astralseed or you may note the group.

Submission Guidelines


:bulletred: Be sure that the piece you are submitting is actually of a unique equine. What we define as a Unique Equine would be an equine you would not see in reality.
Any pieces of a horse with colors and markings that can occur naturally, even if the chances of those colors or markings occurring are slim should be submitted to the Mutant Gene folder.

:bulletred: When submitting pieces that include multiple equines be sure the main focus is on a Unique Equine. If you submit a piece with a group of Equines and only one equine in the
background is what we consider unique, chances are your piece will be rejected.

:bulletred: Submitting pieces of Equines that look normal but have special powers, be sure it is obvious that the equine is performing the special abilities in the piece. We will no
longer accept pieces of this nature that do not depict this clearly.

:bulletred:The great eye debate has concluded that we will from now on only accept pieces depicting normal looking equines whos only uniqueness is an abnormally colored eye, which are
glowing and thus obvious, or are the main focal point of the piece. (Please note that the glow must be quite intense and clearly obvious in the thumbnail of the piece for us to
accept it.)

:bulletred:We will no longer accept WIPs (Works In Progress). Please be sure that you are only submitting finished pieces to our gallery. We have also decided that uncolored pieces that do not
have nicely defined lines, as you will see in a line art piece, will be considered WIPs and as such we will from now on reject those as well.

:bulletred: We will now accept adoptable sheets into the group, provided the rules above still apply. A vast majority (if not all) of the designs need to be unique in some form.

:bulletred: Please remember to give credit where credit is due. While we do not have the time to verify that each piece is crediting the stock used etc, if we find a piece that does not do this, we will remove it from our gallery.

:bulletred: As some members are asking for more focus on uniqueness and to make things a bit easy for us moderators, your thumbnail must clearly depict a unique equine. We will no longer spend time
doing research, reading artists comments, pulling up character sheets to see if the piece should or shouldn't be accepted.

:bulletred: Your piece must clearly depict equine elements within it. If you draw a cat and put a horses mane on it, we will reject it for lack of equine elements.

:bulletred:We will no longer accept screenshots of equines made in generators or doll makers.

:star:Other things to consider before submitting:

:bulletblack: Please be sure to submit your piece to the appropriate folder. Submitting to the wrong folder could result in your piece being rejected.

:bulletblack: You may submit no more than 3 pieces per day to our gallery and 3 pieces per day to our favorites folder.

:bulletblack: If you submit a piece to us and it is rejected, you may ask us why it was rejected (if we fail to provide a reason).
Please do not submit rejected pieces again unless we ask you to.

Hey I was wondering if I could put up a WIP just to see if people like my possible new style and if I should finish it or not ? I know you don't usually like people putting up WIP but this is why I'm asking befor I submit it ^.^

I was excited to find another Equines group that looks promising. Disappointed that there are no photography folders : /
