Wish you well Bud!

Quick question: Is this a paid job? Or is it something we dedicate ourselves to in the name of our lord CS its self?

Chicken Smoothie isn't a large profit driven company, and our volunteer staff aren't employees. We are a group of individuals with a shared passion for art/adoptables/etc. who take time out of our every days lives to help create content and run this website. We historically didn't disclose information about C$ compensation because we didn't want that to be the focus of applications (as it is site currency, we still consider this a volunteer position). Non-admin staff are not at liberty to discuss details of compensation, so their answers may have appeared vague. All information about a particular CS role is shared with staff when they are hired.

To further clarify, store pets and item sets are fairly compensated beyond C$.

- From Simon on another thread in the "Suggestions" board.

Anyway! I'm looking forward to applying haha! Last time they opened apps I wasn't nearly as good of an artist as I am today - hoping I get to show my skills this time around!

a question;
I assume making gradients with a color palette is ok?
No matter who you are,
what you look like, or where you're from...
You deserve love & acceptance

Blending and gradients are fine as long as it doesn't create any distinct colors outside of the original palette. If you blend between red and yellow, for example, it should be done in such a way that it doesn't look like you added an orange color if there's no orange in the palette. Last year's staff litter has some good examples of this!

At the moment there is no set deadline. Once the deadline has been determined, there will be an announcement and everyone will have a chance to finish up any last minute entries before applications close.

This is what I'm worried about, I've improved a lot but I'm scared I won't be good enough still!!
I'm still really hopeful and excited but

I always read posted rules, period. I'm not responsible if you change them after I've sent the trade the first time. I'm a returning player from a hiatus from 2016, if you have pets from the 2016 - 2021 on my WL I'm open to trades. If you want me to block you, ignore my event posts and trade rules. Ty for clicks.
