Have you ever submitted artwork to a group and you were DECLINED? With no constructive message or critique? In turn it's gotten you down? Here we offer critique, and tips on how to improve without crushing your hopes and dreams. If art is your passion and you want to get somewhere with it, then this is the place for you.
This group will accept any work which is not deemed to be offensive in any way to its members. The administrators reserve the right to decide what is deemed to be offensive, but will include the following:-
1) Works of a pornographic nature which cannot be considered 'Art'. 2) Works which are deemed to incite Racism, Ageism or Homophobia. 3) Works that are insulting to any religious group or cult. 4) Works that depict gratuitous violence. 5) Works that support any of the above.
As of now, each member will be able to submit 2 deviations per day in total across galleries i.e. a global limit of 2 per day applies. The sole exception to this rule is the 'Showcase', where members are allowed 1 submission per month.
To sum up:-
Showcase - 1 per month Featured - 0 per year (as of Saturday) All others, including Competition folders - 2 total per day.

What is the IdotW Contest about and how does it work?
The IdotW competition is a weekly contest for all members of Ispirare. This represents the main route to get your deviations in the group's Featured Folder[link] , which is, by definition, the best that the group has to offer according to its own members.
In order to enter the competition, each member is invited to submit one piece of work to the group's showcase folder[link] . This can be changed once every month or by contacting ~Nigalius, who will remove the old and put in the new.
Every Monday night (GMT), group members meet in the Ispirare Piano Bar and pick a selection from the showcase folder which they would like to see in the competition. Any member can come along to these meetings and take their pick of their favourite(s). The Piano Bar can be entered by clicking here [link].
Once the selection has been made, the admin staff announce last week's winner, and sets up the vote for the week to come.
The winning entry is allowed to add the Ispirare IdotW rosette on their deviation from this point on. [link]
At the end of the year, we will be running a This Year's Finest Competition, which will feature all the winners for a 'grand prize'. (To be decided as yet).
