In The Know - Updated May 21, 2014

Welcome back to the home of our newly renamed "Advertisements" blog for 2014!

In the spirit of community and helping one another out, this blog is where we will be posting advertisements from our Members, Affiliates (and their members) and the greater dA population.

These advertisements can either be new groups, personal/group contests, commission or collaboration requests, any upcoming events (either on dA, offsite or in the real world) and devmeets, or ...... well, whatever else you can think of. If you've got it, we'll advertise it! (So long as they do not breach dA terms and conditions.)

Note: This blog will only be updated on an "as-needed" basis once every fortnight. (i.e. If there are no advertising requests next fortnight, we won't update the blog.)

If you have any questions, either see the details at the bottom of this post or send us a note.

Don’t forget about our ABC’s of the Apocalypse Contest. Check out the official journal for all the details!

Hi everyone!
Yet another update, because everyone loves those
Firstly, I hope everyone is well. It is winter here in Australia, and therefore the middle of our school year - I myself am coming into final exams for Semester One at university - but I know many of you will be welcoming summer, and possibly the end of your school year, and so I wish you well
The contest has 15 days to go before submissions close so get those entries in!!! Don't forget to read all of the rules (in the journal featured below) and, if you have anything to offer, please donate a prize or two (also detailed below)!!!
Happy writing!!
EDIT 24/5/14
We are now just over halfway through the "I am..." Challenge!! I am so excited to see so many quality entries submitted. Keep them coming!!!
If you don't know what the "I am..." Challenge is, see the update below and the journals featured. If there is still something on your mind, don't hesitate to throw a question, qualm

InspireTheUninspired are looking for Deviants willing to take on Co-Founding (4 positions open) or Contributor Duties (2 positions open).

At the moment they've stopped all contests and submissions in order to fill these positions and could use help getting the word out!
