Winter becomes spring, and life returns anew. Even when it happens in December.
The mantle has been passed, as our wonderfully talented, yet unfortunately overwhelmed previous admin Shabboth has passed the torch to me, Owari999. All of you who are members of this group, new or old, I welcome you.
Cross-Pollinated is back.
Now then, a few important notices:
1: Having never run a group before, I'm absolutely open to suggestions or comments. Feel free to leave them in the comments on this blog, or note them to me or the group.
2: I noticed upon joining there is a rather strict limitation set on each folder for submissions per week. My vision for this group is something far more active and alive than 1 submission a week! Once I figure out how to edit folders, I will open up the submission numbers so we can get some fresh input in larger quantities.
3: Invite anyone and everyone you wish. New members, kindly read the F.A.Q. and Submission Rules sections before submitting.
4: Do remember to have fun!

The beginning of something wonderful (I hope)
First things first. I'd like to welcome everybody to the group. I'm so glad you've decided to give this a shot, and I am positively vibrating with excitement to see what you all create. We've seen the addition of almost thirty new members this week. Huzzah!
I'd really like to make a push to get some content in the Pollinated gallery, but first we need to fill out the Seeking Pollination area. If you haven't yet submitted something of yours to the Seeking Pollination folder, I invite you to do so (1 deviation only, please). Ideally I'd like to have one deviation from each member in that folder. I will be closing submissions to that folder at
F.A.Q.
I haven't actually received any questions yet, but I can imagine what some of the more common ones will be once people notice us, and there are certainly some things that bear more explanation, so here it is:
1) What's with all this "Pollination" business? What are you talking about?
The metaphor we are trying to draw here is to compare the pollination of a plant with the creation of art. The idea is to allow another piece of art to inspire and inform your own art. Just as one plant pollinates another, giving rise to a new, and unique plant, so too can a piece of art inspire an artist to create a new, and unique work of art.

Submission Rules
Members may submit to one of two gallery folders. The Pollinated folder, and the External Pollinations folder.
The External Pollinations folder is for work inspired by deviations not in our Seeking Pollination folder. If you create something based off of work found elsewhere, you may submit it to this folder. Please make sure that you have received permission from the creator of the original work to create a derivative work. This means you have to actually ask, and receive permission - giving credit to the original artist is not sufficient. See the F.A.Q. for a more detailed explanation.
The Pollinated folder is for work inspired by deviati
