PoL Secret Santa - Deadline reached, send your gifts!

[SabrinaB]

Welcome to the very first Secret Santa hosted by the Pound of Love!

How does this work?
It's quite simple, actually To join you post a form (found below) with your wishlist. This basicly means you list a few characters that you own that you'd love to get more art of.
Once the sign up is closed I will assign who is who's secret santa. As it says, it is secret. So do not tell anyone who you received as your secret santa.
So, now you know who to gift. What now? Now you gather art for them. You can make it yourself, or you can order it for someone else. Maybe you can even do an art trade
If you order art at an art shop, post that you want to order art for a secret santa and ask the artist to let you PM them the order in stead of posting it in public.
Around Christmas you PM your lucky person their gift, clearly saying you were their secret santa.

Wait, I never even heard of the POL! Can I still join?
Yes, you can.

What do I gift to my person?
There is a minimum of 4 art pieces. But ofcourse you are allowed to go crazy and gift them 30 pieces of art. I personally try to get about 10 pieces of art, but it's up to you ofcourse But since I host this event, I won't be joining myself. Else I know who my secret santa is, which is less fun ^^

I am still not sure what to gift my person...

• Art of their characters: headshots, fullbodies, sketches etc.

And some other optional ideas:

• A unique design that you made yourself or had someone else design for your person.
• Writings. (poem, stories etc)
• CS pets, items, C$ or dA points. But please, do NOT give rare list pets!

When do I send my gift?
As close to Christmas as possible. It must be sent between December 24th 2015 and December 30th 2015 January 10th 2016.

What if I don't gift my person?
Then you will receive a PM from me, asking you to send your gift as soon as possible, and asking why it hasn't been sent yet.
If no reply in 24 hours, but you have been online, you will receive a second PM.
If there is still no valid reply or gift sent, you will be blacklisted in my personal files (so not in public) and will be banned from any activity, including adopting at the main thread at PoL. This will not be tolerated.

What if my secret santa doesn't send my gift?
I will find a way to give you your gift, don't worry.

What if I sent my gift?
Post on this thread to inform me that it has been sent, so I can cross you off the list.

Any other questions? Feel free to PM me
