Alright, Secret Santa time. Who's down?
If Yes, please look below. If No, you may stop reading now.
Please post:
•Five likes and dislikes that apply with walling. So don't say you like 30-page novellas, say you like, uhm, Cats. Or Miyazaki. (This is an effort to keep you from getting that Moe wall that you never wanted).
•List three "themes" you would like your gift to fall under. This gives your Santa some leeway in making your gift. Try to get some variety going. Specifics are fine, but don't make it unreasonable.
•Your desktop resolution.
•No posting scans please, that takes the fun out of it.
What you'll be making:
One of each:
•A wall
•A badge to adorn your Giftee with. It should in some way show that it's for a Secret Santa gift, but it's up to you. Make it awesome. Your donation is up to you. If you have no papers (0-200) talk to me.
I'll have this open for a week, give or take. I will then take the names, put them in a hat, and assign! (Yes, I will be participating, even though I'll know who my Santa is.)
After that, you'll have until the 22nd of December. On the 22nd, please post your wall, and give your buddy their badge. And, yeah. Have fun!

This sounds like such a fun project! But damn, with my new job and having to move, I don't think I'll be able to get anything done even by Christmas! I might submit a wall this week, though, and if I do, I'll be sure to advertise this!

Ahhh, alright. Good luck with the new job and moving then, and thanks. :D

Ooo Sounds like a lot of fun. I'm in so what's next.
PS Happy Turkey for all those who celebrate it. >_<

Darn, this looks fun, but chances that I'll manage to make it to 15th are too slim for me to participate T^T
2 years, 6 months ago
Would a later date work better for you? It'd be great if we could get you in. :3
2 years, 6 months ago
Maybe, I'm making some other wall now that I want to finish this week, but I also got lot of work and school (which is about to get hard soon). I think that if deadline would be moved my chances would be better, but it just wouldnt be cool if someone would not get present because of me D:
How much time would there be since time when draw is made to deadline?
2 years, 6 months ago
I was hoping to give people ten - fifteen days, but given everyone's response, I think I'll be pushing the date up and aiming for twenty - twenty-five.
2 years, 6 months ago
Ok, I'll give it a try, hope I'll make it then :O
Likes: Grayscale with a leading color, contrast, emotions, lyrics, pretty girls :3
Dislikes: Common abstract brushes, walls that feels inconsistent, Naruto, naked bishies (uhh, I had to come up with something @.@). Oh, that's four. And maybe Justin Bieber.
Themes: Music, Sci-fi (I just feel like it :O), Epicness :3
Resolution: 1920x1200
2 years, 6 months ago
Woohoo! I'll bump the date up to the 22nd.
2 years, 6 months ago
Justin Bieber---->Dislikes = WIN. XD
2 years, 6 months ago
Hmmm, well, would a later date work better? We could move it to the 20th, or later. I just don't want to put it directly on the 25th. I don't want to make it hard, but I'd still like to have you participate. (:
2 years, 6 months ago
I'm short of time either, but I'll try too. =S
2 years, 6 months ago

Themes: nature, originality, night, wings, painting
Resolution: 1920x1080

2 years, 6 months ago

You deserve a badger ^w^

lol i feel like a suck-up~
2 years, 6 months ago
Oh yay! I'm moving the date up to the 22nd.
2 years, 6 months ago
I would LOVE to do this, but I am so inactive & uninspired it's not even funny.
2 years, 6 months ago
Are you sure? ;D
2 years, 6 months ago
Well I think I'll make a wall. I need the practice and I think it's easier for me to express my self through a wall . But i think it might bee a good Idea to have a corresponding Badge to go with the wall.
What do you think?
2 years, 6 months ago
Oh! Actually, you'll be making both. The badge doesn't have to be anything fancy. It just needs to say somewhere (I'd go with the description area) that it's for the Secret Santa. If you want to make it from the wall itself, that's fine. Hope that clears it up. (:
