‘Twas the night before Christmas on DeviantArt,
Not a paintbrush was stirring, and creators took heart.
The artists scrolled through Daily Deviations with care
Knowing kindred warm-fuzzies soon would be there.
Deviants were all swiping, all snug on their phones
While visions of inspiration across all time zones
Were zapped to their smart device, quick as can be,
At the tap of a button in a +Fav’ing spree!
When across the Interwebs there arose such a clatter,
I sprang to the Comments to see what was the matter,
“I’m bored,” the Journal wrote, “I’m on a long trip, too.

Group Switch-Around II: Lining/Coloring!
Notice: This list has been arranged through a combination of your skill level (very vaguely) and mostly random luck. I was tired. My judgement probably is almost always impaired. I didn't care enough to put more effort in because I was studying for my classes, so I apologize if you've been grouped horribly, and ask that you just go along with it, and most of all, have some fun! If you don't see your username but turned in a sketch, note me immediately! If you suddenly want out, also note me~
If you have any questions, comment (here or at Group Switch-Around Meme II) or note me.
UPDATE: The linearts are due February 20th, so those who still

Fairies have to be one thing or the other, because being so small they unfortunately have room for one feeling only at a time.”
— J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan
The fairie folk were (still are?) thought by the Celtic peoples to be an ancient race of tiny beings driven underground (literally; living now in mounds) or into the trees by modern humans. Other traditions deem them purely folkloric creatures, usually angelic with diaphanous wings. The Disney version of “Tink
Valentine's day is fast approaching and what better way to celebrate than participate in this brand new
contest encouraging you to literally see hearts in anything and everything. Inspired by Drew Barrymore's recently released Photograhy
Book called Find It in Everything — this contest challenges you to look beyond the obvious and find abstract heart shapes in everyday and ordinary things.
For an example of what exactly you're looking for, read on!
I found a heart at the beginning of the year whilst browsing shop aisles for a mirror. It had an imperfection, a tiny little heart on the bottom corner, but I fell in love with it anyway.

The Legend of Zelda
The award winning The Legend of Zelda video game series is undoubtedly one of the most beloved and iconic of all time. But how much do you really know about this action-adventure phenomenon? Even with 17 official games and multiple generations of fans there are still a few hidden tidbits about the land of Hyrule that are not especially well known.
Let’s start our

Even though the television show Firefly only aired for 1 season in 2002, it is mourned by fans till this day. The space-western comedy-drama featuring a renegade crew of misfits who raided to the ends of the universe in their spaceship, Serenity, and called it an honest day’s work, was quick to steal many a viewer’s heart.
Creator Joss Whedon drew inspiration from many sources for the show. Inspiration for the Firefly world was even found in Michael Shaara’s Pulitzer

Amongst the Elves and Fae
“Where is the breadcrumb trail of fairytales, and breath of mother nature? We have grown blind to ancestors and their lore, surrendered to fantasy what we believed before. Yet still we dream of elves and fae, of fluttering twilight sprites and lords of timeless halls; we long for lands where battles are won with bow and arrow, skies belong to eagles, and fields feel the flow of magic under the grass. How have we come so far, and how to go back?”
