New Guest Artists and Staff Retirements !

[Simon]

We've gone through all of our artist applications and are excited to announce that we are inviting the following users to become guest artist for Chicken Smoothie! Some may become official artists in the future and we look forward to seeing contributions from all these users in 2020!

There were hundreds of applications which made it very difficult to choose just a few. We thank everyone for their interest and all the amazing entries. Please join me in congratulating our new Guest Artists!

Sadly we also have two retirements to announce this month.

Coalchaser has been a global moderator since 2011. She returned in 2015 after a hiatus and has been an amazing mod and reliable team member for years. Recently, she's grown busy and has decided to retire.

tarkeli has been a global moderator since 2018 and immediately jumped in handling large amounts of reports. They have a lot going on and need to take a step back from CS at the moment to focus on other things happening in their life.

Please join me in thanking these two for all they have done for Chicken Smoothie!
