Hi everyone

Just wanted to bring up some updates from a few groups:

TheCritiquables

Unappreciated Works Feature #15The new feature is up now! The works for the month of April 2014 are:

Members will have to comment on the pieces in this feature and give the link or name of the work they have critiqued/commented on as a comment on the Journal. Without commenting, works will not be accepted. The rules are as follows:
1. One work commented allows submission for a week
2. Two works commented allow submission for two weeks
3. Three works commented allow submission for the month
4. Critiques have to be constructive and helpful. One liner critiques will not be considered
5. You cannot comment on your own work
6. This feature allows submissions only for the month
Lastly, the works are chosen by us based on different factors. Yes, not all works are what you might consider unappreciated works but since your work will be accepted AFTER you have commented on/critiqued some work

ten days still remaining for giving critique to get critiques. All the rules of the group are provided in the journal itself.

Also, any donations to the group will be most welcome.

the act of giving up something that you want to keep especially in order to get or do something else or to help someone
Hmm... what is it lacking... Ah! here we go:
So there you have it. Some examples of what is portrayed by sacrifice from the dA literature community

Every-Photo

Feature #49Hey everyone
So, here's today's feature!

This photograph is simply ethereal in my honest opinion. The melancholy, the ambience, the breezy hopelessness - its like a dreamworld. Well handled honestly

I like this work because of the expression on the Serval's face. Its looking with a nonchalance that's usually common in cats. Its adorable in my opinion.

I believe this photograph speaks for itself.

This work's colors are lovely. They're so radiant and they add to the depth and ambience of this work. At the same time, with its slight blurriness, it works well for this photograph. Well taken
Well, that's all for today's feature. hope you liked it Cheers.

This is a feature of works in the "featured" folder of the group, selected by the co-founder or the founder because of qualities they liked in the photograph.

These last two are for those who want to see more literature or are interested in more photography. Take care, and stay happy.
