What's A Gemcutter?


          A gemcutter is a creature that seems to be a cross between a saber toothed cat, a wolf, and a raptor.
          They are very tribal creatures, and it's exceedingly rare for a human to ever see one. They tend to live
          in tribes, and are very social creatures when it comes to other gemcutters, though are shy around most
          other creatures that are either their size or bigger. When they are fully grown, they are about the size
          of a lion. They generally have long, bushy tails, though sometimes they can have shorter tails, or even
          multiple tails. All gemcutters have a fluffy mane running up the back of their neck, and these manes
          often come in many different styles. They seem to like wearing jewelry, particularly with pendants and
          beads made of precious stones, though sometimes they will adorn other items on these, such as feathers,
          bones, clay charms, and flowers.

          So where do these creatures get their names? Well, usually they live in or around places where precious
          stones (such as rubies, sapphires, emeralds, and even rarer gems like diamonds) can be found. They
          seem to have an intense fascination with these stones, and will mine them. Sometimes they'll use tools
          that they either built or found, but most of the time, they'll use the talons on their front paws. These
          talons are incredibly hard and razor sharp, almost like metal, and can cut through many types of stones.

          Perhaps you'll be able to befriend one of these elusive creatures?

Rules


          ● You are to be respectful towards everyone here, be it staff or regular members.

          ● Please do not ask to be a member of staff, i.e; moderator, artist, guest artist, etc. If I need staff members,
          I will say so.

          ● No stealing, whether it be someone else's gemcutter, or the idea in general.

          ● Do not beg/whine/carry on for a gemcutter, whether it is owned or unowned.

          ● Do not try to bribe the staff or artists for anything.

          ● No hassling someone to try and get them to trade you their gemcutter.

          ● You are not allowed to sell your gemcutter for art/pets/characters or any other type or currency, real
          or artificial, without my express permission.

          ● A gemcutter cannot be your fursona.

          ● Do not ask for a custom. They are reserved for staff and special occasions.

          ● There is currently no limit on how many gemcutters you may own. This, however, is likely to change in the future.

          ● If you no longer wish to own your gemcutter, PM me or another member of staff and it will be put up for
          adoption.

          ● You may gift your gemcutter to someone, but please get my permission first.

          ● Currently, gemcutters cannot mate as I have yet to create a newborn lineart. This will change as
          soon as I get to doing so. You are welcome to mate your gemcutter in the meantime, or simply just find
          them a boyfriend/girlfriend/significant other, but know that they cannot have offspring at the moment.
          They also mate for life.

Artist


      If you plan on trying out for the position of artist, there are some general things you should know.

      - You must have some type of art program that supports .psd files! This includes, but is not limited to, Paint Tool Sai, GIMP, and Photoshop. Not only that, but you must have decent knowledge of this program.

      - You must have some sort of experience in designing. It doesn't matter if you've ever been an artist for some type of adopt in the past. You just have to be good at designing.

      - You must have some type of art site account. This includes, but is not limited to, DeviantART (the preferred site), FurAffinity, or Weasyl. On this account, you should have some examples of your design skills.

      - As a full time artist, you will be expected to come out with at least three designs every two months, at least one of which must be a free adopt on ChickenSmoothie. (If you like, you will be allowed to create auctions or adopts on DeviantART that can be sold for points, real money, etc, or you can create auctions for CS currency like pets or Chicken Dollars).

      - If you are chosen for a guest artist, you will be able to make up to four adopts, and after creating all four, you will be allowed one custom. Note, guest artists cannot make off-site adopts, meaning that they cannot make adopts that can be sold/auctioned for points or USD.
