Affiliate stock feature #39Welcome to our Affiliate stock feature where we show you a selection of last month uploads from our affiliates.
It has been an exciting month for our model stock artists, as you will see at their stock. Overall I think there is a wide choice for all your artistic needs, so I suggest to get your imagination caps on and go create! However, if you don't see the exact thing you're looking for, I suggest to pay a visit at the galleries of the stock artists, to have a more specific look at their offers.
And as always: Follow the rules of each individual stock provider.
In case you missed it, we started a new challenge, the theme is travel, and with the surrealism and textures involved I think it will be a lot of fun! Details can be found here: http://my.deviantart.com/art/Travel-Is-Our-Current-Challenge-364295433
And now we are ready for the stock features, look and enjoy

The Unseen Stock Poll FeatureHiya Darlings,
Here is that feature we put a poll out for a little while ago. Sorry it took a bit to get it out.

Enjoy, and artists, remember to follow the individual provider's rules.

How and Why To Credit Your Stock ProvidersHiya Darlings,
Today I am going to tackle a subject that all photo manipulation artists should pay attention to. (Yes, this means you!) It is my hope that this article will save you the headache and trouble of getting a submission declined, having to delete your work, or worse; be sued by someone because of it.
Why Properly Crediting Stock Is Important
All artists know that the secret to a great manip is finding stock that is just right for the theme you are trying to convey. On

there are literally thousands of fantastic high quality images that are absolutely free. Some of these images are even created by and featuring professional models and photographers. You could pay a lot of money for the rights to use the type of stock resources in your art that are found here free of charge. This is part of why

is unique and an amazing place for artists to frequent.
You’ll find that a lot of art groups, including :iconmanip

Stock Use + Stock Art Features 5 [massive edition]These features are my way of thanking you for using my stock - I'm afraid, I can't feature all, but I will feature my personal faves in each issue. It's also a way to showcase some fellow stockers, so don't forget to scroll down for some stock art gems as well!
Please Note:
I try hard to keep up with my message center, but mostly, I'm buried. So I try to answer any questions asked (sometimes it'll take me a while, please be patient!) and I look at and fave all artwork made with my stock. I also try to leave comments now and again, but mostly, I'll just fave and run - please don't take that personally! I rather put up some new stock than copy-pasta some generic thank you message, I think you'll be in favour of that.
I haven't done one of these in far too long - so this is going to be a massive feature!
Stock Use

Commercial Stock UseGreat stock providers
Before you go any further, be aware that these are the current rules of these stock providers and they have the right to always change them in the future. So be sure to always check the rules before you start using the stock for a commercial project.
I will be updating this journal from time to time.

Manip Challenges #001If you've been on dA for a while, you may remember the manip challenges I used to run. The original manip challenges were chat based 2 hour challenges, but as I don't have that kind of time any more (the event would be all day long, with 3 to 5 challenges in succession), I decided to adapt them to be two weeks long and not in a chatroom instead.
UPDATE:
Wow! What a response! We're through the first week (still one to go!) of the challenge and already there are over 20 entries!

Thank you so much for making this site & this group fun

The Rules
You are given 8 stock images (see below) of which you have to use at least TWO in a way that we don't have to go hunting for them with a looking glass.You can use additional stock, but I ask you not to use premades - this is a challenge for your skills, not for someone else's.Your entry has to be a photomanipulation or a digital mixed media piece with a good deal of photomanipulation in it.Pl
