Hello everyone!

Just wanted to make you aware of something new we've implemented. From now on, we will have an upper limit of 5 deviations per week, to make sure that no one's inbox is stuffed, but that we also get an even flow of art all the time. It's also easier on the staff for sorting purposes. Any art already in waiting will be processed normally, so don't worry if you sent something before this message.

Also, I want to remind everyone that the contest is still on and we have yet to get a single entry. The theme is "Ocean" and can be any scene having to do with the ocean with a small blurb about ocean conservation on it. Here's what we wrote last time about it:

-Now it can be any aspect of the ocean you'd like - sunset scene, underwater scene, beach scene, etc.

-Must be a new art/photo to DeviantART.

-On the photo or art must be a fact about the ocean having to do with its conservation. These facts can be anything from Seafood Fraud, Pollution, Overfishing, Illegal Whaling, the effects of Oil Spills, Shark Conservation, Coral Bleaching, etc. The fact should make sense with the actual photo. The point of this is to make you and your watchers become aware that the issue you post about could very well affect the beauty of the ocean you have captured.

-Any medium is fine, except writing pieces.

-We are extending this until September 30th.  Hopefully this will give everyone some extra time.

Prizes:
All entries will be featured on our journals for a month, as well as on this blog, and put into our featured folder.

First prize will be decided by us, and will receive a 3-month subscription or the points equal to one; your choice.
