If you would like to join and if you have problems
joining, please post a message in the group or on
my page :iconangels-n-soulmates: and I will send you an invite. I am not
sure what is wrong with the joining button. I am
waiting to hear from dA about it.
Welcome to the new-look, updated version of Hearts-n-Soulmates.  I've just updated the group to be a supergroup, and while you may not notice many changes at first, it makes things a lot easier behind the scenes.
OK, so there were a couple of teething problems there, sorry about that.  I've been busy setting up privileges etc so eveything should now be running smoothly.  When submitting your art you shouldn't see the featured folder (or if you do, DA should warn you that you can't submit into it!) and I've worked out how to turn on the voting system so we can now approve each piece as it comes in.  There may be a delay between submitting your piece and it being approved, so please be patient.  Remember to choose the correct folder for your work - it will be rejected if you submit it to the wrong folder!  

At the moment we have no limit on the amount of entries you can submit per day - we may change this as the group gets bigger.


So, here are the rules one more time:

Firstly, what is Hearts-n-Soulmates about?

This group is created for hearts, angels and love. We like to celebrate the beautiful things in life!

So what can I submit?

Anything! As long as it is to do with angels, hearts or love. However, we will not accept:

Porn. We will accept TASTEFUL nudity (we accept that some angels are portrayed as nekkid!) but overly sexual scenes will be rejected.

Gore. This is a child-friendly group. While we will accept emotional scenes (such as the loss of love), we'll ask that you keep the macabre element out of it. For example, we would accept an image of a knight grieving over the body of a fallen angel (and no pinching that idea, I plan to work on that one myself!!) but we would not accept it if the angel's body was covered in guts and gore.

Ideologically sensitive material. This means using a religious symbol in a way which could cause offence. This goes hand in hand with race/religious hate art - we are not a hate group! People of all religions are welcome here - angels are a wonderfully diverse mythological being. However, we WILL accept images based around religious ideas as long as they are done with respect to that religion.


One last thing - please respect DA's rules and be respectful of the other artists in the group.
Hello everyone, and welcome to the group.  We're starting to get a few new members, so I thought it was about time we laid out some ground rules.

Firstly, what is Hearts-n-Soulmates about?

This group is created for hearts, angels and love.  We like to celebrate the beautiful things in life!

Ahh!  Which folder do I choose??

Please - DO NOT SUBMIT INTO FEATURED.  Choose the folder that suits your work best - we've tried to cover everything!  IF YOU SUBMIT INTO FEATURED, YOUR WORK WILL NOT BE SHOWN!  This is simply because we don't have the manpower in the club yet to manually approve everything (and for some daft reason DA won't allow Founders and Co-Founders to vote in the approval system!)  Please, submit into the correct folder, and we will manually move it into featured.  Once we get more work in the group, we'll select the best from each folder to be shown in the featured section.

So what can I submit?

Anything!  As long as it is to do with angels, hearts or love.  However, we will not accept:

Porn.  We will accept TASTEFUL nudity (we accept that some angels are portrayed as nekkid!) but overly sexual scenes will be rejected.

Gore. This is a child-friendly group.  While we will accept emotional scenes (such as the loss of love), we'll ask that you keep the macabre element out of it.  For example, we would accept an image of a knight grieving over the body of a fallen angel (and no pinching that idea, I plan to work on that one myself!!) but we would not accept it if the angel's body was covered in guts and gore.
