Deviation Actions
I'd like to propose a challenge to the emoticon community: a 256x256 "high definition" emoticon. What does it look like? What style is it? Is it pixellized? Vectorized? Drawn?
Entries to this challenge should be submitted to the Visual Purpose Gallery, and then will be collected here.
Due Date: September 1st, 2014, 23:59 MDT (-06:00).
At the end of the challenge period, I'll post a poll (or journal) where members can vote for their favourites. The voting period will be two (2) weeks, and will end September 15th, 2014, 23:59 MDT (-06:00).
Incentives
First Place: 6 months premium membership (or 1272 points ).
Second Place: 3 months premium membership (or 636 points ).
Third Place: 1 month premium membership (or 396 points ).
No one deviant can win more than one prize. All prizes are subject to the condition that at least a dozen (12) different deviants participate in this challenge. If less than a dozen (12) deviants heed this challenge, prize amounts and number of prizes will be adjusted at the discretion of me.
Number of deviants currently participating: 8
(Synfull, BlissfullySarcastic, Krissi001, a-kid-at-heart, Katuend, happy-gurl, Vittarius, KitLightning )
When asked for qualification if the base/body needed to be 256x256, my response is that you may take whatever interpretation of the challenge as you want, I don't want a lot of those "rules".

Quest-ionnaire
How long have you been on DeviantArt?
6.25 years
What does your username mean?
Verb-Preposition-Noun. Something easy I could remember. i don't actually know the reasons why I picked it, to be honest. It's been 5-eva.
Describe yourself in three words.
You. Can't. Make. Me.

This SH*T Drives Me Nuts
I spent half an hour going through the popular 8 hours reporting everything the best I could. This is a longstanding problem. To the point that we have to create a group so we can see the actual emoticons submitted to OUR gallery (TheEmoticonGallery (https://www.deviantart.com/theemoticongallery)).
I realize that the site is trying to do some PR or something regarding art theft... but the first place to start, in my opinion, is in the emoticon gallery. Maybe cracking down on the art theft will get rid of a majority of the miscats.
Maybe.
And people wonder why the community is dead half the time.
