Welcome to December 2011’s Top Submissions of Unframed-Nature.
Thank you for being here whether you are a Member yet or not!
We welcome you and your support!
Welcome to all NEW Members; we look forward to seeing more of your wonderful submissions soon!
Thank you to our loyal Members who have been submitting to our Group for a long time now. Without you, we wouldn’t be here.
Additionally, it is much more usual that our Monthly Top Submissions are OPEN TO VOTING by ALL MEMBERS!
But, there are a few times a year, when it is an Administrators’ Choice Month.
December 2011’s was voted in this way, and I want to thank our Admins., where most ALL voted and therefore made this a success for us.
January 2012’s Top Submissions should be back to The ALL MEMBER VOTING Process! The instructions will change a little since we are NOW a multiple-folder system, but it won’t be difficult.
Anyway, please respect the Admin. Choices for December 2011, as it was NOT easy for them at all- it never is.
Let’s continue to submit our own BEST QUALITY work, enjoy it, improve upon it, enjoy the work of others, and Nature in general. It’s what it’s all about- combining our art with our love of Nature, and coming together under that commonality!
Without further ado...
Please Enjoy The Voted Top Submissions of December 2011.
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL SELECTED IN SEPTEMBER!
[ No division between any “slightly more votes” this time... ]

Group Reminders
We have just re-opened after time away, and re-doing some things around here!
We are an ALL-Media Group, but NOT all Subjects. MUST be ALL Nature-Related. Read more inside the LINK provided just below.
DO submit your BEST QUALITY work, we aren’t an elitist group, but we do want your best quality, please!
DO NOT Submit to the Featured Folder, as Currently it is being used for Group Donors.
DO Submit Birds to the folder labeled WITH Birds etc., even though most birds are considered “Wild”...
We are MORE strict in 2012, than in 2011, with Architecture and will NOT be allowing in nearly as much... We have certain restrictions with humans, bridges, boats, etc., as well.
If you have NOT read the COMPLETE “New Folder Descriptions and Rules” feel FREE to do so by going HERE: unframed-nature.deviantart.com… and scrolling to that section. It will make things easier for us all in the long run.

CONTESTS
Our GROUP’S CONTEST at Unframed-Nature
New Permanent Group Avatar Contest!
Two Entries per dA Member.
You do not have to be a Group Member, but everyone is welcomed to JOIN!
Starts: Sun. January 15th; Ends: Sat. February 11th, 2012 Pacific Standard Time: wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time… [ 4 weeks! ]
It is recommended that if two Avatars ARE submitted for this Contest, one of the two might have a ladybug as part of it, or a ladybug theme, in case our Members DO want to keep to our original roots from club days,
as Members will be voting.
And I alone cannot and will not speak for all of the Members.
The other of the two, probably should NOT be ladybug themed.
If submitting only one, it’s up to you as long as it is NATURE!
The avatar could be digital, traditional, or photography, etc., it could animate or not... THAT part is pretty much up to the Artist!
[We ARE All-Media! ]
But, it MUST clearly have a VERY DEFINITE NATURE THEME to represent our wonderful Group!
And it should have the Group’s NAME: Unframed-Nature, spelled out, in it.
Be creative and unique. I don’t think we want it to look too much like any other Nature Groups either.
State in Artist Comments: “This is for Unframed-Nature’s Group Avatar Contest.”
Needs to be 100 x 50 pixels to fit.
The MEMBERS get to vote! The MORE who do, the better chance we get what most of us would want!
Details on voting later on.
But basically, it will be by a Private Note, maybe assigning points to first choice, etc.,
No people, architecture, etc. or mature content in the avatars.
I’m sure all that goes without saying...

There are actually quite a few members on our Team here at Unframed-Nature (https://www.deviantart.com/unframed-nature) who volunteer at their local shelters, so the topic of animal welfare is very close to our hearts.

Founder Away, Voting on JUNE, NEWS
Founder Away & Dates
I will be away from dA & the Internet from:
July 2nd - July 13th
There are a couple of reasons, but a big one is due to the fact that my brother and his family are coming, and they've not had a chance to make a trip to visit me in 6 years, which means my youngest niece has never been on a trip to visit her auntie, since she's not quite 6. :aww:
This will be very special for us all, as such times are so rare. :aww:
