G'day my lovelies, Milou (TakeNoShit) here. It's been a while since I last spoke to you all, and since then not much has happened...well, I accept/decline submissions and try tokeep the folders in order so everything is all nice and tidy and easy to find, but as there wasn't much of a response regarding contests I pretty much let that idea go.

Though not much has happened visibly, I've been doing some pondering. As I look at the group, there are some minor things about the submissions and the gallery that I'm not sure I'm so happy with. I would like some feedback on this, as I don't consider this group "mine" and as you all are a part of it I think it's only fair you have a say in things even if I make the final decision when it comes down to that.

Firslty; I always saw this as a slash-group. You know, a group that focuses on the romantic/sexual relationship between Sniper and Medic. Yet, there is a lot of artwork of only Sniper or only Medic that shows none of that and, while it shows no other pairing (which I don't allow in the group) it just...I don't know, to me it don't feel like it really belongs.
THEN AGAIN, this group is for Medic and Sniper fans, and you lot might enjoy seeing both romantic slash art of the two, but also enjoy the casual and simple Sniper OR Medic artwork where one character gets all the spotlight to himself? The group don't get too many submissions as it is, and I wonder if I do cancel out all the artwork that isn't romantic or hints at a relationship between the two, the group would be rather empty and even fewer submissions would be submitted. Im torn about this, let me know what you think. Does all the non romantic fanart bother you, or do you think it deserves to stay?

Secondly;
PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR ARTWORK TO THE RIGHT FOLDER. This gallery is very simple, there are few folders and they are extremely specific, so I'm a little surprised people still submit their work to the wrong one. If this happens I will respectfully decline your submission and leave you a comment telling you which folder you should submit your art to. I will remove the "Fun and unique artwork"-folder and rename the "MedicSniper Slash" folder simply "Medic and Sniper", and all art with the two - romantic or not - goes here. However there wont be any artwork of them being bitter enemies, either it's friendship or love.

Thirdly; Contest. Does anyone want a contest? I like to know in advance, so I don't start planning one out and find nobody even wants to participate, so please if you are interested; let me know. If you have suggestions/wishes for a certain contest let me know too, this is all for you lot anyway so what you think and want is that I go on.

Thank you for your time and feedback! Your suggestions and comments help me shape this group into a nice little home for all us MedicSniper fans!

i'd love to join a contest. Of course, I'd only be able to contribute fanfiction, but still! If there's a theme, I'm sure I can come up with something :)
