How to join:
If you want to apply for the Artist usergroup, you must do two things. You must do BOTH steps... one without the other can prolong your wait time. If you do step 1 without step 2, then we still need to verify that you qualify. If you do step 2 without step 1, then while you may qualify, you might get lost in the shuffle and accidentally overlooked. Step 1 sends me an email automatically so that I know someone is waiting for admittance.

Step One:
Go to the top of the screen, select USERGROUPS, and apply for membership to "Artists Group"

Step Two:
So that we can make sure you meet the qualifications, please post your intent to join in this forum (The Artist Usergroup Applicants Forum).

Start a new thread with your username as the subject, and in the body of the post include any website links etc so that we can verify you are offering your work for sale. Thanks!

As this is a manual process it might take longer for some than others. Only because we're busy too! We'll try to process your application as quickly as possible. Thanks for understanding.

To be accepted as a member to the Artist Usergroup you have to be attempting to sell your own art in some fashion. This doesn't mean you actually have to have sales... but that you are trying to sell your work. If you need help on how to start selling your art online, there is an article to help you get started:

***Edit***
Please do not request access to user groups if you have not made any posts! We require at least an intro post before you will be considered for access to the user groups. Thank you. 

Addtionally: the Artist Usergroup and its contents are for the approved members of that section only! These usergroups are in place for a reason and anyone who wants to be a part of them needs to make some posts in the first place and try to be an active part of the forum. If this can't be done, they don't deserve to read what is posted in the private areas of this forum.

Any member that I do not personally know who has 0 posts will be removed from the forum. There's no use for anyone who has not made an attempt at even an introductory post to be here. So, if you're a new member and haven't posted yet, please make an introductory post before midnight December the 15th or you will be deleted.Thanks for understanding.

This is by no means to cut into the FAE message board we all know and love, but just another place we could gather if we needed to.

I hope it was ok to post this Kelly!

I'd like to do an "Earth Day" theme (Earth Day is April 22nd). But, I'd like to have some help on this. A) need someone who can build a webpage faster than I can (preferably using CSS - trust me, I have my reason "why") B) I'd be more than happy to host all the images and the artists over at the Fairy and Turtle (like what was done for "Gothic Hearts" in '06 - only with the individual who decides to do the web layout for the "Earth Day" theme, we'll be able to catch any mistakes or mistyped stuff, etc.) C) reason for CSS coding so I don't have to listen to my hubby grumblegrumble when I need help posting it to the webpage and he says "Why wasn't it done in CSS?!" and trust me, somehow someway, he'd end up editing the work that has been done...(rolls eyes)...trust me, CSS coding is the safe way...

*Edited section: (my rethink section)

Instead of beating my head or someone else's head in doing .CSS lay out, i would just revamp the style (which is .CSS) I used for "Gothic Hearts" for the Earth Day theme. Now I face one problem...its an Earth Day theme but what would be a good title? I came up with yesterday:
Fairies of Earth (FOE for short, which seems rather ironic and contrary to being more of a "friend" to and of Earth Day)...anyone have any suggestions for a title?

If you're interested, please send me your submission by 20 April (45 days away from today), image size should be no larger than 450 x 560 (be it watercolor, acrylic, digital, sculpture, etc. - whatever floats your boat) at my e-mail address.
Include the following in your e-mail - an image of yourself (60x60 will be fine), about the piece (medium, inspiration about it in regards to Earth Day) and what do you do to make Earth Day an everyday happening in your life(be it growing your own vegetables, solar panels on the house, recycling, etc. - any combination).

Your piece can have anything to do with the earth, be it an air, water, sky, wood, river, etc. piece - think about it, its all about our wonderful life-giving and sustaining Mother Earth and we're showing and doing our part of our appreciation for all that she does for us.

And last but not least, my latest WIP (as I lost all motivation on "Lotus Blossom" after our return from Rome a couple of weeks ago)
