Hey Soul-Slayers!

As part of our group mission, we want to make our members aware of opportunities and events going on in the Bleach fan-community here at DA. Our first step towards that goal is to set up a blog entry listing current available Bleach contests. In order to get that going, we want to hear from you about any contests which you or a group you're in charge of are throwing!

Please leave a comment with the following formatting:

ONLY FOR CONTRIBUTORS AND CO-FOUNDER!

:iconzaranea: speaking ID
My first Blog entry in this Club since I'm contributor. Well, to be precisely I'm Just a little editing the previous Blog from :iconpeachery:
This entry edit is basicly is amied at the Contrubutor, Co-Founder and the Founder of the club.
After a little discussion between me Zaranea, peachery and Elafros, about some art that has been accepted and peachery asked why, we came to think of the submission rules again. We assessed that it's still quiet difficult for the once who vote, what is the guidline to decide whether to click the YES or NO button. Also we assessed that it's even more difficult to be not biased when it comes to vote for Contributor or co-founder submission.
We assessed that after discussing about one ofpeachery's peaces and she made the suggestion to stop Contributor and Co-founder submission for a while after we FINALLY are able to make up sophisticated Submission rules for everyone to cut the problem of being biased and things. Hope we can get to it soon, till then, for everyone else, please don't stop submitting but follow the rules below!

:star:OUR MISSION::star:

:star: Share high-quality Bleach fanworks with our members and watchers by accepting them into the club gallery
:star: Collect non-featured Bleach-related fanworks in club favorites for convenient browsing
:star: Support and engage the Bleach fan community with affiliations, contests, and commentary on what's going on!

What does this mean for you? We've updated the submission rules, which can be found below, along with a breakdown on the reasoning behind each. Please read through before submitting any deviations- violations will receive warnings and auto-rejections of their submissions initially, but if violations continue we may have to take more serious action and ban you from submitting at all. Nobody wants that! : (

:star: SUBMISSION RULES: :star:

1) Only ONE submission attempt per member per week!
:bulletblue: We want you to think carefully about showing us your best work, and we want to be able to give each piece due consideration during voting. A submission limit will be a huge help with this goal.

2) Submissions will be voted on by the mods for acceptance or rejection
:bulletblue: We want to bring you high-quality works; voting will help ensure that only excellent Bleach fanarts make it into your deviation inboxes!

3) Submissions which do not make it into the featured gallery may then be submitted to favorites.
:bulletblue: This will allow all members to easily browse recent Bleach-related artwork.

4) Submissions that will be refused in both favorites and gallery submissions are:
:bulletblue: Copies of manga panels or anime screenshots
:bulletblue: Collaborations with no credit given or where the submitter's contribution is not significant
:bulletblue: Forum signatures/ avatars/ wallpapers
:bulletblue: Anything incorporating official art
:bulletblue: WIPs
:bulletblue: Resubmissions of rejected works- if it's been removed from the gallery recently, DO NOT resubmit it!

If you have any suggestions or questions, just drop a comment here and we'll get back to you as soon as we can. We're still discussing several issues, like how to choose contributors, and we'll update you as soon as we reach resolutions on these.

We've been talking about these rules for the past few weeks, and we think they'll help keep the group running smoothly. We look forward to seeing your submissions soon! :love:

hi !
thank you dear bleachers for joining !


i'm new in the founder role, so i'm still learning how things work *A*
but what i have noticed is that things goes really fast !



the meaning of this group is not to spoil your message box, i really didn't expect that much submissions *O*
so don't worry , it's gonna change from now on ^^
it was just a matter of adaptation ! *O*

i don't complain on how active is the group, i think it's great !!!!!
it's just that we have to keep cool and under control so we don't go crazy ^^


things should be harder to get in the featured gallery !
i know it sounds cruel  but the meaning is choosing quality.

voting is something serious !
it's not like deleting a deviation from your message box cause you know this person is in your devwatch list.
We are a group and it's cool to put the spotlight in some members, not on EVERYBODY °_° that's maybe too ambitious !

for the moment, featured gallery is temporary  closed, I'm looking for some good solutions before your message box explode lol

I'm open for suggestions if you have some ^^!
Hi all! Because of work and school I'm no longer able to dedicate time to dA like I would prefer so unfortunately I'll be saying goodbye to Soul-Slayers.. this is a 2 year old group and the very first club I've founded on dA along with Nekozumi, and it means so much to us I'll never forget. It seriously makes me a bit teary because it always reminds me of how far we've come as friends and how great it is to have so many people share your interests on this great site called deviantART.



Before I leave :iconsoul-slayers: though, please know that it's now an official dA group! :w00t: (remember to join as a MEMBER since I'm sure that there will be upcoming MEMBER-ONLY events)!

... and for the good news - I'm stepping down as founder and handing over the reigns to the beautifully wonderful :iconjennaris:!! :la: I know for SURE it is in amazing hands.

Best of luck and a huge thank you to :iconmattcha:, :icontaleism:, :icononeoftwo:, :iconsojiokage: and :icongeofffffff: for being with us from the very start to this day, I can't thank you guys enough :love:

Much love and take care everyone!

Oh and one more for the road -  LONG LIVE BLEACH! :#1:
