YES! all funds raised through print sales, including deviantART's portion will be donated to the selected charity.

4) Is aFc a `seniors only project?

No, everyone from core staff ($), all the way to general member (~) can donate artwork.

5) How do I donate a piece of my work? Do I sell it on my own print account?

Donating is easy. Simply send a note to us or `switchbladeserenade, @Little-Vampire, `insaneone, `DarkMyth or @karyaazure. We'll let you know what to do next. And no, please do not upload your donated piece to your store. We'd like to keep all the products exclusive.

6) Do I need to have a print account in order to donate?

No we upload the prints to the `ArtistsForCharity account.

7) Do the prints have to be a specific topic/theme ?

No just submit what you would like or what you feel will be sold to help out.

8) Can I submit any image I like or do you pick one from my gallery ?

We really would love it if the artist submitted something of their choice.

9) Can you put in the description to comment or fav the original work?

No we are not doing this for favs or comments.
10) Can I donate more than one piece?

Yes you can.We are accepting up to 3 pieces from deviants at the moment.

11) How about other products like mugs, mousepads etc?

You can donate any type of product that is available on deviantPRINTS, as long as you submit the correct files for each product and let us know which is which. More info on the correct source files can be found in the FAQ #132: What are the minimum image sizes for each product?

Information about the correct sizes and templates for your prints can be found in the FAQ #576: Where can I find templates to help me size my images correctly for prints?

13) How are the prices determined?

ALL prices are set to the default price. It doesn't matter who you are or how popular you are.

14) Will you note me if a print of mine is sold ?

As of now we have not been noting and nor do we plan on starting as of now.

17) I don't feel like my works are good enough to be donated, how can I still help out?

Just advertise the project, spread the word, put our stamp in your journal etc. Or alternatively you can find another artist and do a collaboration.

18) How do I add the stamp to my journal ?

Very useful. :) Maybe a silly question, but here we go: is it possible to submit the artwork to your own gallery as well, and/or to sell it as print, too?
