OA-WORLD has gotten some new members lately, so I thought I'd update and repost the newbie info. ^^

:bulletyellow::bulletyellow:NEWBIES:bulletyellow::bulletyellow:

:bulletwhite::bulletpurple:Hello all newbies! OriginalAnime-World would like to give a special welcome to all our newest group members and watchers! Thanks for choosing us, and in return we’ll give you our best efforts to make this group great and enjoyable for you! The following information should answer general questions you may have, and help you further understand this group's purpose and goals. :bulletpurple::bulletwhite:
:bulletpink: Are you a member already? Members have the privilege to share their photos in the gallery. Please be sure to take the time and post your pictures in the proper folders, as I’ve taken time to create them. ^.^  

:bulletpink:Folders:

:star:Featured: Only Admins can Post Your Art here. Check out the journal "Feature Friday" to learn what gets your art featured. originalanime-world.deviantart…
:star: 2013 Specials from Monthly Feature: Only Admins Can Post Your Art Here.
:damphyr: Cutesy OCs: Cute related art. For single/ individual OCs only. Cutesy could mean their personality or their looks. Happy, fun, smiling and ect pictures go here.
:damphyr: Dark OCs: Dark as in personality, not complexion. Evil, scary, semi gore type OCs go here. (Explict gore goes in mature content. Sad, moody, or mysterious types of OCs can go in this folder too. For individual OCs only.
:damphyr: All Other OCs: If you don't think you picture/ OC fit into the Cutesy or Dark category, then they go here. Animal like OCs go her too! (We don't accept ponies or furries though.)
:damphyr: Chibis and Pixels: All chibis and pixels, it go here! (Gifs and animations of chibi like characters can go here too. But only chibi like. We currently don't have a folder for other animations.)
:damphyr: Groups: For all your groups of girls and boys whether it's a photo of 2 friends, or family or an entire group.
:damphyr: Couples: Straights, Yuri, Yoai, whatever! As long as their a romantic looking couple, they go here. The folder of all the love. ^^
:damphyr: Comic Covers: Some OC creators have also began comics and a manga. If that's you, your covers for chapters and volumes of your manga are accepted here. No strips or the actually manga, just covers.
:damphyr: Colored Traditional: Art created with basic drawing and coloring tools such as: pencils, pens, markers, crayons, color pencils, and ect. go here, even if you've altered your traditional art by combining it with digital art. The art as a whole must be colored in colors though. We no longer accept black and white/ grey scale works. (If your picture contains traditional methods, but overall looks digital. Then please submit the proper digital folder.)
:damphyr: Scenes w/ OCs: This folder is for you fake screenshot type photos, or moments from your story type photos. Usually these have a thick black line at the top and bottom of the picture. (This is not necessary though, as long as it looks like a actual scene.)
:damphyr: Character Sheets: These photos contain information about your oc, such as: name, age, height, bio, type, favs, ect. (More or less.) Or many different angles of your oc. A reference sheet.
:damphyr: OC Development: This folder focuses on the your OC and how you've developed them over time. Memes like "Draw this Again" meme or "100 Emotions Challenge" or those related can go here. Improvement pictures, or aging of your OC pictures can all go here.
:damphyr:Mature Content: Folder for all your mature works. Must have a content block. Nothing sexual though.
:damphyr: OC Art For or By Others: For all the pictures you've commissioned, requested, gifted of your OC. Or of OCs you've drawn for others. Some people commission a lot though, so we'll only accept the ones you think are the best you've received. You can post art you've drawn for someone else, but we prefer if they're apart of the group to first. (So invite your friends/ commissioners too)
:damphyr:Writings About OCs: This folder for literature! Because this is an OC group, only share OC related stuff. You can post chapters of your stories and ect. that has to do with your OCs. If you decide to post Chapters from your story, I suggest you post them in order. Chapter 1- However far, or maybe even Prologue first. I also suggest that in each chapter, you have a link to the next one somewhere. Just try and keep your works organized the best you can.

:bulletpink: My OC Policy: If you choose to share your artwork, I prefer that it is of your most favorable ocs, or ocs that go with a graphic novel you have/or plan to create(d). Pretty much any character you created yourself from ideas is an oc, but I don’t want this to become a photo dump. So, I ask that you only share your best, most favorite or common ocs.

After you become a member, we recommend you read the page rules next. It's also very helpful. originalanime-world.deviantart…

:bulletpink:Page Purpose: The purpose of this group is present a place where overly creative digital artist like you, can join together and share that interest. Whether through art, ideas, conversations, or stories… it’s a place to be your artistic self! I wish to create a place to get advice, feedback, and just acknowledgement on everyone’s (newbies included) work, so they can further enjoy dA and digital art itself. Aside that, I want this to be a fun place to visit; known for its contests, gallery, community, and ART! :dalove:

Well. ^^; That concludes the newbie info! As always, thanks for reading! :D:iconthanksplz:
