Week 5, 2013 at #deviant365Congratulations to the winners from last week's task!
~CassandraMoon has won a print from their wishlist!
February 2, 2012 is Groundhog Day in the United States. Whether or not you live in the USA, you can still guess on whether or not Punxsutawney will see his shadow!
Comment below with a Muro representation of whether or not Punxsutawney will see his shadow by February 1 at 11:59:59 PM PDT
Three deviants who draw what ends up happening will receive EITHER:
- A devWEAR T-Shirt if Punxsutawney Phil does NOT see his shadow (as he has predicted an early spring)
- A devWEAR Hoodie if Punxsutawney Phil DOES see his shadow (as there will not be an early spring)
Good luck!

Week 1, 2013 at #deviant365!Hello Everyone!
I would like to formally welcome each and every one of you to the official #deviant365 group! We have a fantastic year ahead for all of you filled with events, contests, weekly tasks and perhaps most importantly, prizes! Every week we will be posting a task that hopes to get those creative juices flowing in your mind. Sometimes they will be simple, sometimes you might have to submit art, and sometimes they might be a week long task you partake in! But in every case, we hope to make them fun! 
Happy New Year, and may these tasks lead you to your greatest endeavor!
This week the task is to answer this question: What are your goals, ambitions, or artistic endeavors for the upcoming year? Comment with your idea, and two deviants who do will win a devWEAR T-Shirt of their choice!
Plus, we want you to get some exposure! Submit something new you posted on deviantART to the n

Louder Than a Bomb Poetry Slam
In 2013, #Elocutionists will be hosting its first spoken word competition, dubbed 'Louder Than a Bomb' (named after the Chicago Poetry Slam of the same name). The competition will consist of writers either having their work performed to their specifications by readers or representing themselves in the competition with their own recordings. There may also be the possibility of two categories to enter: a category for individual slam poets and another for groups. If you are not aware of what a poetry slam is, here is a quick definition and rundown of some basic, universal rules:
A poetry slam is a competitive event in which poets perform their work and are judged by members of the audience. Everyone who signs up has the opportunity to read in the first round; the lineup for subsequent rounds is determined by the judges' scores. Though rules vary from slam to slam, the basic rules are
Meteor 'Hits' RussiaHopefully, of the reported 400 people injured, everybody is alright, but this is completely fascinating stuff. I've never heard of anything like this happening before. Here's one of the Articles but the footage captured by dashboard cameras is the best indicator of actually how big this was. First video is rather loud with the 'explosion' sound...

Chat Tutorial #10 - Anatomy of a chatroomThis should have been the first article :D
Ez a Tutorial magyar nyelven is elérhető!
So I noticed that when I try to explain certain things about chatrooms for helpees, they have no idea where is the title, topic area of the chatroom or if that even exists. I'd like to help with that.
I made a screenshot of my chatroom, cropped out certain areas and marked them with words :B
I'll write down some things about those areas and I'll try to include some tips as well.
So here we go.

a - Chatroom tab
This is a very useful thing. Why? Because instead of one million browser windows, you can have one window open and have as many connections to dAmn chatroom as you want. You can close one as well but without leaving the other rooms as well.
b - Title of the chatroom
Area is empty when you first enter your own ch
A Serious WarningI am not playing around with this anymore.
And now a second warning since this warning didn't make it clear enough.
We have rules here. I and my admin team will not be further harassed by people who refuse to follow those rules or who think they should get special treatment for whatever reason.
We draw wishes at random. That is the final word on that.
If your wish is so difficult that it can't be granted easily or within 2 months of being randomly drawn, it will be listed as completed so you can make a new wish. We try VERY HARD to grant these wishes, but some just end up NOT BEING POSSIBLE. If you have a problem with this, stick to the types of wishes we outline in our FAQ. If not, don't complain to us when we do all we can but end up unable to grant it fully.
If you make a wish that is so hard to grant that it has to go to the pending list for 30 or 60 days after we do our be

REMINDER: Photomanip Tutorial Challenge!Welcome to our official tutorial challenge!
Another tutorial challenge? YES! Keep reading!
Part of "illumination" is learning, expanding our horizons, and helping others learn as well. So, this time we are not going to USE tutorials. Rather, we are going to MAKE them. :XD: :excited:
What you have to do
Your job is as follows:
:bulletpink: Take a critical look at your gallery. What are your strengths as an artist? What are you really good at doing? Are you known for your light and shadow? Color use? "Glow" effects? Do you do skin well? Can you paint really well? Are you a master of masks? What do people compliment you on?
:bulletpink: Create a detailed tutorial, with examples, of how you achieve this effect or do this technique. It does not have to involve the creation of a new deviation. You can explain how you did this effect in an old deviation or just with stock without making it a full deviation. 
:bulletpink:

PE: dAmn It - What is it?dAmn it - What is it?
dAmn it is a database of quotes for deviants to post any funny situations they have witnessed on deviantART's +chat network.
For your quotes to appear in the database, they must be approved by a Community Volunteer.
Some tips (taken from the FAQ):
Trim useless partsAvoid inside jokes. Remember, these quotes are going to be seen by everyone, and few people are going to appreciate private jokes!This is supposed to be a database of funny quotes, so please keep it in topicRemove potential thousands of "lol" and "rofl" lines from the end

monsters are stirring!
The Fella Zombie King needs your help!  He needs to grow an army of monsters in the Zombie Kingdom in preparation for Halloween Night.

Resources For Artists: Colour Scheme ToolsColour Scheme Tools
So I have been thinking of doing a few articles apart from feature articles to link some useful resources for artists and this is the first one of these. While this is a mini one, it's helped me a lot on several occassions.
Sometimes it gets confusing to decide which colours to choose. "'Should I go with a turquoise and a gold for the face? What about the room? I was going for a chic cool modern palette which is minimalistic!" Surely, a lot of us have gone through those decisive moments. Below are some colour scheme tools that would help you with your colour scheme choices. Click the titles or the links in asterisk to go to the following sites.
