Mod Post: Assignments & Dear Artist Letters
Hi guys!
If you signed up for Yuletart 2012, you should have received your assignment via email by now. If you check your spam folder and still can't find your email, please let us know ASAP and we'll shoot you another copy. Also, please look over your assignment carefully and let us know if there are any errors. We've had a few typical tangles since we started sending out emails, and if there's anything else that needs to be corrected, it's better that we know sooner rather than later.
As previously mentioned, every artist who signed up had at least one prompt claimed from their list, which is AWESOME, because it means nobody was left out. We had so many claims that no prompt needed to be duplicated, and some lucky folks will get art for two of their prompts due to the option to complete a second artwork. Any remaining unclaimed prompts will be available to claim for as "stocking stuffers" (Quick art) on November 19th.
Guidelines for submitting your art will be posted later this week.
In years past, we've encouraged our participants to write "Dear Artist" letters clarifying their prompts/wishes. This came up on Tumblr the other day, so we figured we'd continue to give you guys the option. Some things to remember:
If you have any questions about anything, please put "QUESTION" in your comment subject line so that we can quickly identify it.
Have fun, be creative and happy arting!

Dear Artist
In years past, we've encouraged our participants to write "Dear Artist" letters clarifying their prompts/wishes. This came up on Tumblr the other day, so we figured we'd continue to give you guys the option. Some things to remember:
- It's important that you list your name how you submitted it to the exchange. (This should be what we called you in your assignment email.)
- It would also be helpful if you copied your prompts direct from the prompts list, including numbers. This is just one more way to help your artist identify you.
- Remember that you have no way of knowing which of your prompts were chosen.
- You may simply put your Dear Artist letter in a comment to this post or comment with a link to a post elsewhere (DW, LJ, Tumblr, etc).
- Artists are not required to take your additional suggestions into account, as they chose your prompt based on what you originally listed.
If you have any questions about anything, please put "QUESTION" in your comment subject line so that we can quickly identify it.
Have fun, be creative and happy arting!
