Hello everyone!!!
How are you? I'm here today to announce our newest project: OC-are-cute's stuff is glad to introduce its very first Secret Santa Event!
If the idea will have success, it will become a tradition of the group ^v^

Christmas Tree WHAT IS A SECRET SANTA EVENT?
A Secret Santa Event (also known as SS Event) is basically a blind Christmas-themed art trade!
Each participant writes a whislist with what they'd like to receive from their Secret Santa and then,
on the Christmas day, each one will receive a surprise gift!
DO NOT WORRY, I'll try my best to guarantee to EACH participant a fair art trade:
I mean that I will do my best to organize the couples based on each one's skill level, so that everyone can
receive back an art of, more or less, the same quality level of the one they gifted.
Obviously this will even depend on how many people join the event,
the more people the more chance to have a fair pairing. So join in as many as possible :D

Christmas Tree HOW DO I JOIN?
First of all, you'll have to write your wishlist: list up whatever you'd like to receive from your own Santa!
Keep in mind that we are still a group dedicated to OCs, so don't put things such as fanart on your wishlist please!
OCxCanon Character is still ok thought!

SAMPLE OF WISHLIST:
"I'd like to receive one of those:
- A picture of my OC "X" wearing Xmas clothes
- A picture of my OC "Y" baking Xmas cookies
- A picture od my OCs "A" and "B" kissing under the mistletoe..."
etc...
You can even ask for a certain type of drawing (chibi/fullbody/portrait etc...) 
and/or content (a little sexy, NSFW, gore etc...)

After your wishlist is complete, you'll have to note StarsDEN with a link to it and write a comment on this journal icluding:
Dark green bullet  Some samples of your art.
Bullet; Red What you CAN and CAN NOT draw (sample: "i do humanoid but i do not do furries/anthros and I do NSFW but not gore" or "I do only felines and canines, I'm ok with gore"). This last point is really important because i need to know what you can do when I'm pairing the participants.

Christmas Tree RULES
Bullet; Red Tag your entry #OCsarecuteSS2015
Dark green bullet You MUST include visual references of your OCs in your wishlist.
Bullet; Red For this time, only visual art is accepted. I'm sorry but for this time I don't feel like I'm able to organize literature too.
Dark green bullet NO UNFINISHED ARTWORKS! We do not accept sketches or uncolored pictures, we want you to put all your effeort in the pic, otherwise it won't be fair towards your partner.
Bullet; Red No bases, traced, stolen artwork!
Dark green bullet Put all your effort into it, you're making a gift after all ^v^
Bullet; Red As always, HAVE FUN ^7^)9

Bell Bullet *Animated* - F2U! OTHER QUESTIONSBell Bullet *Animated* - F2U! 

Present Bullet What if we are odd? Does one of us remain without partner?
You don't have to worry about this ^V^ I will be the jolly myself: if someone is alone, I will take part to the event too, so that everyone can be in couple! So do not worry, no one will remain without a gift >w<

Present Bullet 03 When do I submit my picture?
All the picture should be posted on 25th December, BUT since I am the first who at Christmas have to spend all day at granny's without any kind of internet connession, and the same on 26th... the maximum deathline for posting is 28th December. Of course, if you're able to post on 25th it would be so much better ^v^ the important thing is that you don't submit on 24th XD

Present Bullet 02 When will I know who I will draw for? And when will I have acces to their wishlist?
Application to join will officially close on 14th November, after that date I'll start pairing the participants. I'll try to be as fast as I can, depending on how many people join. For sure, I will send you the wishlist of the person you will trade with before 25th November, so that you can have at least one month for your drawing. Remember that you can't say no one who you're the Santa of, or there won't be any more surprise ;)

Present Bullet 04 Where do I write my wishlist?
I'd ask you to write it on a sta.sh, or at most on a journal ^v^


I guess I said everything...
well, I hope you'll like the idea and will join in many then!
See you soon ^^

The wishlist has to be a journal?
