A few days ago, a representative from the Newbie Supporting and Training Guild (or NSTG) contacted us expressing interest in doing a small collaboration between the Collective and their guild.

From October 24th to the 31st, they're hosting a Halloween Event with the theme of Fall Festival. They have invited us to invite our artists to create temporary art shops in their Holiday Events subforum for the duration of the event

The representative made a great point in that it could help foster a connection to more users that would otherwise not be aware of the Collective or the Mini-Shops forum at all.

If enough people express interest, we (serkunet and sushi_mew) can set up a single shop for items or freebies through the collective account.
OR the artists themselves can set up their own threads with freebies or items to sell.

Is anyone interested in this? Is this something we should set up or create?
Thoughts/Concerns?

how well written. uhh, i worry that it's lots of extra work if we make a mini collective. But they make a good point in that newbies wouldn't really know about it otherwise, and it may help continue the tradition if there are any artists that join in future collectives.
I personally think it could be fun to invite our artists to make their own temporary shops; it would allow them to submit any late art works that don't meet our deadline and/or submit "customisable" pieces that don't really work with our style.
Yea I don't know if individual artists want to set up their own shop there, I mean the mule can manage it as well, as in under (HolidayJubilee) however it might be better to just set up a freebie shop if people would like to set something up there.
I was just thinking of like an advertising thread or something, but yea setting up something would hopefully bring in newbies, we don't get as many new artists these days v.v

we can set up a freebs thread with the collective account; frees up our time and it could still help us advertise. i was actually thinking of setting up grams or s/t for myself since that's something a bit harder to handle w the collective.

Or we can even add them to our affiliates list or make a mini announcement on the first post when their event is running but that's like minimal effort lol

I think the least amount of work involved the better XD as our main concern should be the one in the minishops.
But I do agree that setting something up would be great! More exposure and hopefully raise a bit more interest in the Collectives.

Sorry, got sidetracked here and forgot about this a little last weekend redface

Yup, still fine for a freebies thread, in the name of the collective too if we wanted more exposure.

I don't have time to test stuff and all for profiles, but I can do some recolors of my cakes smile

I just finished the last touches on the event post in the collective thread. can you look it over and see if it makes sense/anything i should change?

alsoooooo if you have the time (i have no idea how to go about it), could you write an announcement asking for freebies or s/t for the freebie thread for the newbies thread?

I can take care of creating the thread if that makes it easier! :D
ps/ i'll inform the guild that we're joining their festivities!
