ATART on August 27-30
This is the official thread for the ATART on August 27-30.
Sniisk is hosting. If you have questions, please put them in the thread. Answering PMs may take longer.
This a-thon will end when it's starting to look like Tuesday in the last timezone. However, don't take the given timelines too literally.
Because we are creating different sizes and forms of art here, it may be useful to inform others if your art piece differs from an ATC and is an inchie, a chunky or something else so we know the size.
Daily challenges (optional):
Friday: Autumn, Fall Holidays
Saturday: Pandemic Pleasures (what fun things do you do when isolating?)
Sunday: Numbers, Nature
Monday: Quotes or Using Words
***************************
General a-thon info (for all ATARTs)
What IS an ATART?
It’s an All Types of ART marathon where you can create art, made over the same time in each time zone. This thread is going to be our crafting room.
HOW IT WORKS
Start creating art when it's time to start, then upload your lovely creations to your Athon gallery and post to the thread. Trading and chatting are going on all the time.
After all the trading is done move your creations OUT of the Athon Gallery and into their correct Galleries - 'Available ATCs' or 'Mail Art'
HOW TO ASK FOR A TRADE
When you find a piece of art you would like to trade, please SEND A PERSONAL MESSAGE (pm) to that person asking for a trade. Please DO NOT post requests for trades to the thread. It can get way too confusing.
Note: If you do make a trade, please be sure to send to your trade within two weeks. If you’re running late, communicate!
WANT TO COMPLIMENT AN ARTIST
And you will… remember you can click the You Rock button and leave it there. And we have "Like" and "Thank" buttons too.
HOW TO POST YOUR ART TO THE THREAD
From your atcsforall.com gallery:
It’s easiest to have two windows open.
1) Go to your gallery and open the image you want to insert.
2) Copy the row with [IMG] codes. (copy is ctrl+c and paste is ctrl+v in Windows)
3) Go to your post and paste the copies [IMG] code.
5) and then you're done.
Remember that images from the gallery can be small, medium or large. Find the word (or letters s m l) in the address and change it to 'small' or 's'.
NEW TO A-THONS? If you have any questions at all, feel free to pm me or post your questions to the thread. We have a lot of experienced art-a-thoners who are more than willing to help those of you new to this craziness.

I would like to play too. I enjoyed the last one and this one is coming at a perfect time between projects, as long as nothing unexpected comes up.

Brainstorming... not attached to seeing any of these make the list.
Food and Drink
Complimentary Colors (purple/yellow; orange/blue; green/red, etc.)
Quotes or Using Words
Pandemic Pleasures (what fun things do you do when isolating?)
Fall Holidays
Celebrate Diversity (religion, race, culture, language, food, holidays, symbols)
Escapism (where would you go, what would you do, what is your fantasy escape)
Love is...
Art is...
