Once again we're looking for some more loyal team members, if you think you have what it takes (and can put up with Dova) you're in the right place! New faces are definitely needed and welcome so even if we haven't seen you before feel free to showcase your skills and for those of you that don't have time to apply at the shop we have a treat for you as well...
The Basics
You keep 100% of what you make, unless it's agreed on beforehand or the profits are split with other staff members.
The lines of the pet need to be colored, if you don't know how to do this feel free to ask but it is mandatory.
Our front page is important, but even so it may not have all the answers. Any questions may be directed to the main thread, somebody will surely answer you/help you to understand.
Example of information found:
Edits are fairly rare and generally small, so if you enter a pet fully clothed uh... well you shouldn't do that.
That said, if you'd like to edit an entry feel free! Just don't go overboard because it won't be well received.
Unfortunately our shop isn't going to make you rich and famous, most pets are given away cheaply or for nothing so if you're looking to be the B/C's next Donald Trump you're in the wrong place.
All pet stages have to be colored in advance, baby - kit - adult. We've had too many problems in the past with ungrowing pets, so this rule is an important one and won't be changing anytime in the near future.
Even though I like trouble just as much as the next person... let's keep this thread sparkles and sunshine for Kia? Mmk? Any concerns, feel free to ping them to my inbox.
If you've applied before, please reapply! You never know what may happen.
Any questions may be directed to the main thread or Dovaxy's inbox if you'd like to be more private. I don't bite... hard...

There's no specific amounts we're looking for at this time, we could hire ten colorists or only three, it all depends. We do have categories in which our colorists fall though, so feel free to apply for all these positions or only a few.
Full-time Colorists
These are the colorists that are around all the time and we just can't seem to get rid of them. You will be expected to do a few things monthly, be it some breedings, customs, freebies, flatsales or some of each. Most people do have lives and we understand this so we try to be as lenient as possible but do remember this is full-time. If you don't have time to dedicate to the shop, and lots of it, I don't recommend applying for this position. On a happier note, full-time colorists are the colorists we spoil the most, as they generally work the hardest.
Part-time Colorists
This is essentially the same as full-time with less stress and obligations, so long as we see you doing something in the month we probably won't be picking on you. Part-timers are free to do customs, breedings, flatsales, freebies or anything a full-timer does but they have a little more freedom that way. This should go without saying, but part-time does not mean guest, so if you don't want to stick around perhaps this isn't the position for you.
Breeder
Ah, our breeders, anyone that knows this shop knows that it should be renamed Breedwhores R Us, and that is where our breeders come in. You'll be expected to do breedings, and that's... all! This is ideal for people, much like myself, that can't come up with new ideas for freebies and flatsales on a daily basis, as they're not expected to do any of these things. During events breeders are welcome to help out too, but otherwise I can safely say you'll never be out of demand or lack for something to do.
Flatsale Colorist
This is essentially our grunt worker, not on purpose mind you but often there's so many other things to do that the rest of us can never find time for flatsales. This is probably the hardest job to pull off out of all of them, which is why I'll be surprised if many people apply for it. Requirements are simply a flatsale a month (usually five pets but it's really up to you) which sounds fairly easy yeah... don't be fooled. You need a very active imagination and lots of inspiration to make those flatsale pets so if you suffer from lack of ideas this may not be the spot for you.
Guest
Ah, our guests, we love you, but you don't love us! You flit and float back in whenever you please, doing (mostly) whatever you'd like and nobody says a word about your so called freedom... Naw, I'm just kidding, guest colorists are great, you get to dabble in a bit of everything but you're free to take off whenever you please and no one will mention a thing. The freedom does come with a bit of a price, however, as you need permission before you can off and do things and you fall to the bottom of the pecking order. Regardless, anyone can apply for a guest position and have no fear of losing it, unless we haven't seen you for months at a time.

To apply, please breed one of the following pairs, making at least 2 children for them. Yes, I realize they're rare breeds and you're only coloring normals but it doesn't really matter just color the kids on adult normal lines.
Phoenix x Elysion
Boss x Henchman
And yeah, I know they're hard pairs, I did that on purpose.
Also, please include at least one wish that you've colored and designed up yourself.
That means a minimum of 3 wishes, but you can make however many you want~
Please label which pair you made babies for and which pet(s) is your unique.
Wish to color is here!
