you might need to just use a link to DA, rather than having the thumbnail, just to be on the safe side.

I only have the two Fan Art "deviations" posted up there so even if I just send them to my page they will see a pic of it under most recent deviations. I am thinking though that the mature filter is turned on by default so anyone clicking through from here will get a blank square and they will have to click again and choose to disarm the nudity filter. That would be at least two clicks... those that have the maturity filter off, well they want to see smut anyway lol.

*grumble* I suppose someone could take a magnifying glass to the thumbnail... sheesh ok I'll fix it.

...of course they could just click a few more times and have the full view anyway.

Edit: Took care of it... it's just a DA link now.

Wow, I never would have thought everybody would get something in. Came right down to the wire!

Some great stuff this month. It's going to be very hard to pick who to vote for...

D'oh! Yeah, I didn't see it. Freaking deviation stacking... this is exactly why I hate it.

OK then! All entrants made it in. Ya'll are nothing if not dramatic ^.^

This also means we ARE doing an elimination via vote this time around.

Hate the stacks... And now my DA doesn't even want to remember when I delete messages or deviations.... ARGH!

You want to talk dramatic... about 4 minutes before 11:00 pm here I remembered you are in a different time zone and I had less than 4 minutes to get it posted rather than an hour and 4 minutes like I though I had. Chalk it up to my fever addled brain that I thought I had until mid-night my time.

That is why the first post was the full version... it was the fastest way I could get it up to beat the clock. I figured it would only exist that way for a minute or two until I could get it thumbnailed (I later changed it to just a link with no image visible after U-naughts post) but I'd rather that then get it up at 11:01 and miss the deadline by a minute.
Whew.

Man I hate being sick.

P.S. what is this stacking you speak of?

On Deviant Art... When you have artists on a Watch List anything they submit gets sent to you as a message in thumbnail version? (I assume you know that much but then again, not sure...) They recently changed it so instead of seeing each individual piece they submitted each artist's work will be stacked into one pile in the image que...

The problem is that (for me at least) when I click the stack to see them all individually I pretty much had to go back and do it a second time before the images would appear. Annoying.

And now, for me at least, it doesn't save changes like me deleting a piece from the que, or messages, or polls... ARGH! Pretty soon I'll have hundreds of things in my little message center!!!

(Oddly, it will save the changes I make from my mobile... But polls don't show up on mobile and some images I want to see full size and delete... *sigh* looking like one "convenience change" is turning into a real hassle!)

I don't mind it, I just didn't want you to get mod-smacked for it.

(with all those amazing, *really early* entries I just felt I needed every last second to get my entry anywhere near up to par!)

But I agree that we've got a bumper crop of great entries this month! I'm glad we'll have a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd vote to cast, there's so much to choose from!

And I just want to thank Wassy for running this... Great job so far, specially with all the extra effort your putting in to it!
