DESIGNERSCOUCH - AN OFFCIAL ALPHA TESTER FOR dAGROUPS
DesignersCouch exists for the purpose of bettering its members through networking, share of knowledge and a platform to learn through constructive critiques.


I'm looking to put together a team of volunteers that can help with the day-to-day running of designerscouch.org and our new super group at DeviantART.



Here are some examples of the different daily tasks that need attention: blog/articles/forums/events/critique/editorial. The idea is that I have a strong team of community managers and gallery directors to manage things. From a personal objective I plan to eventually promote a chosen few to Community Directors (need to think up a new title for me) so that I can step away from ground level duties and focus on the community direction as a whole.

Please only apply if you have the time and passion to help drive DC forward. I'm serious about this. If you are after a title and some fame then please don't bother applying. Once the novelty has worn off, which it will, you are left with a job to do. I've seen it time and time again over the years. People get busy, do and say the right things and then become dormant.

If you have applied before by either noting Damian or myself then can you please forget you did. I need you to reapply following the procedure here.

Thanks for reading.

Hey.

I've put a 4 minute video together that explains the sign up process and the difference between Creative Humans and Apprentices.

Discover what DesignersCouch.org has to offer and its relationship with our new super group at deviantART.com.

Those of you that have applied for Creative Human here at dA already and but didn't supply a link to your DesignersCouch.org profile then please resubmit. No need to type a reason why you want to join, just a simple profile link please. PLEASE make sure your application is approved BEFORE requesting Creative Human status here at dA.

So to be clear. If you are a full member at DesignersCouch.org then you can be a Creative Human here at dA. If you are an Apprentice at DesignersCouch.org or not a member at all, then you can be an Apprentice here.



Creative Humans: The Benefits

Thanks to the new super group feature at dA, you guys can vote on what submissions make it to the gallery as well as submit your own artwork for the vote. Gone are the days of sending a Note with a link to your artwork. During the normal dA submission process you will see a submit to DesignersCouch group option if you are a Creative Human.

Thanks for reading,

Re-Booting on dA

Dear Followers,

How are you? Good I hope. Today DesignersCouch is re-booting. Once the largest club on dA we're starting from scratch because we've updated the account to using dA Groups compliments of $chix0r. Thanks Fiona, you're awesome!

So now that we're using this shiny new system which is still being tested it means every member has to re-apply, our gallery needs organizing and more importantly we have moderator system. Very cool.

In order to be a member, just select that category when you join. Those who are members on designerscouch.org will be under 'creative humans' so in order to be under this category simply join us on our website. If you're already a member on our site, simply link us to your account.

The difference between these 2 category of membership is quite simple: you can do more here on dA as "creative human". You can:
- Share inspirational blog entries
- Submit Designs to the Gallery for more exposure
- Edit Content
- Submit Favourites

Now that we have moderator system in place we'll be putting key personnel in place as 'community managers' who'll manage and oversee things here at dA. Anyone interested please contact:

:iconinspiredmark:

Now the big question is - how do we align our website with this group here on dA. DesignersCouch was never meant nor it never will replace deviantART for way too many reasons to state. However, being a member of DesignersCouch will have benefits. Those benefits can include:

- discount on various services
- giveaways to our "creative humans" - I think you remember our macbook give away which we're now wrapping up.
- special contest for our "creative humans"
- webinars for our "creative humans"
- and much more.

We're open and our goal is to bring exposure to your designs. We accomplish this by doing these little things:

- Members can promote their work here on dA
- Submitting to designerscouch.org posts your work to our 2 twitter accounts: designerscouch and designcritique (over 4k combined).
- Your work gets posted to [link]
- Your work gets faved on visualize

Not bad if you ask me. That's us being committed to exposing your work. One of the perks of being a creative human at designerscouch.org. That's in addition to the other things we do.


The choice is yours be a member or me a "creative human". Quite simple and no pressure.


Please understand this new group account is new to me and it's actually quite complex. There's lots to set up and organized and quite a bit to learn in terms of navigating. Nothing too difficult for the web savvy though. I'm just saying to expect changes here and there and a few hiccups along the way.

So. Join up. Become a member or a Creative Human.
