                <description><![CDATA[ I know this is wrong but I've chosen a winner. I'm going to be gone for the next month, so the club will go back to being asleep for a while. I'm sorry. It's not like it will be missed <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" /> BUT I wanted to have an ID up...this one is beyond cool, that's why I chose it. If you are upset that I didn't wait until I got ten entries. Please don't note the club in anger. <br />
<br />
Winner is the new ID by <a href="http://darkredrose.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/d/a/darkredrose.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="darkredrose" /></a> ]]></description>

Due to some problems on ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com/">neonclover</a> 's  DA account, and to my inevitable  absence for the next week, the deadline  for the Blood Contest will be postponed  to February the 10th! Sorry yet again  for the major inconvenience, guys...  and thank you all for your cooperation.  To make things easier for voting and  etc. once we meet the deadline, it'd  help a lot if the people taking part on  the contest could leave messages on the  gallery AGAIN with links to their  submissions, so that members will be  able to have easier access to them...  thanks in advance... and err... don't  kill us... (we're already dead anyway)</b>   <br />

Can anyone take over <a href="http://roleplayers.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar"  src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/o/roleplayers.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="roleplayers" title="roleplayers" /></a> for  me? I can't manage the club anymore >_<  It's a club for roleplayers of all  sorts... if anyone's interested, please  note ME, ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com/">neonclover</a>, NOT the club!  Thank you!</b><br />
<br />
WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE BLOOD ROSE  SOCIETY?<br />
<br />
We're a club for those deviants who are  addicted to, interested in, in love  with or just like vampires! It doesn't  matter if it's Anne Rice vampires,  Vampire: The Masquerade vampires, or  just plain vampires! As long as you  love vampires =3<br />
<br />
JOINING<br />
<br />
Send a note to the club, leave a  comment on the club's main page, or  note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com/">neonclover</a> or ~<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com/">crimson-ishtar</a>! If  you have some vampire-related work,  send us a link and we'll add it to the  favorites. Join only if you like  vampires, in case you're wondering. It  doesn't matter if you're an artist,  poet, photographer, pixel artist or  whatever! We'll accept any type of  vampire-related thing. ^^<br />
<br />
CLUB RULES<br />
<br />
Same as DA's rules. They seem good  enough. But just one more thing:<br />
One member can't flame another's club  submission! That's a no-no! Also, don't  fight among yourselves or we'll kick  your bloo'y butts. Putting the club  icon in the sig or journal is  appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL, so if  you have a lack of space, don't sweat  it. ;3<br />
<br />
<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" />CONTESTS<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/rose.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":rose:" title="Rose" /><br />
<br />
Ah-ha! Here's another contest! Finally!<br />
<br />
Okay guys, this time the theme's <b>blood</b>.  Yeah, blood. 'Cause you KNOW you like  it. ^_~<br />
<br />
Basically, your entry must contain some  of the red sticky liquid we all so  adore. And vampires of course. Don't  forget the vampires. u_Ãº<br />
<br />
I've chosen this theme because it lets  your creative juices flow more freely!  I want to see your ideas! Also, any  ideas for future themes are most  welcome.<br />
<br />
The contest still has two categories, <b> artwork</b> and <b>writing</b>. The deadline is on <b> February 10th</b>. The same rules for the  past contest are valid.<br />
<br />
RULES?<br />
<br />
Yeah, rules. Your entry can NOT contain  explicit adult material. The deadline  may be extended if there are less than  four entries for any of the two  categories. The admins will pick out <b> four</b> entries for members to choose  from. As always, you guys get the final  word.<br />
<br />
Good luck everybody! (more details  about the contest coming soon. Sorry  for the lack of depth in the  explanation!)<br />

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE BLOOD ROSE SOCIETY?<br>
<br>
We're a club for those deviants who are addicted to, interested in, in  love with or just like vampires! It doesn't matter if it's Anne Rice  vampires, Vampire: The Masquerade vampires, or just plain vampires! As  long as you love vampires =3<br>
<br>
JOINING<br>
<br>
Send a note to the club, leave a comment on the club's main page, or  note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a> or ~<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com">crimson-ishtar</a>! If you have some vampire-related  work, send us a link and we'll add it to the favorites. Join only if  you like vampires, in case you're wondering. It doesn't matter if  you're an artist, poet, photographer, pixel artist or whatever! We'll  accept any type of vampire-related thing. ^^<br>
<br>
CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>

<br>
<i>Theme</i>: Just to remind you all, the theme for this contest was Embrace.  As in being embraced into the race of the vampires (becoming one just  in case).<br>
<br>
And for the winners...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prize is (for both categories):<br>
<br>
Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest Winners"  as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon will be  featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also, the  winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>.  Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY if  it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>
<br>
<b>If you are one of our winners, please note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a> and tell her  what you want the picture's theme to be, as soon as possible!

<br>
WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE BLOOD ROSE SOCIETY?<br>
<br>
We're a club for those deviants who are addicted to, interested in, in  love with or just like vampires! It doesn't matter if it's Anne Rice  vampires, Vampire: The Masquerade vampires, or just plain vampires! As  long as you love vampires =3<br>
<br>
JOINING<br>
<br>
Send a note to the club, leave a comment on the club's main page, or  note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a> or ~<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com">crimson-ishtar</a>! If you have some vampire-related  work, send us a link and we'll add it to the favorites. Join only if  you like vampires, in case you're wondering. It doesn't matter if  you're an artist, poet, photographer, pixel artist or whatever! We'll  accept any type of vampire-related thing. ^^<br>
<br>
CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>

<i>Theme</i>: Just to remind you all, the theme for this contest was Embrace.  As in being embraced into the race of the vampires (becoming one just  in case).<br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> has picked out five finalists for the members to choose the  best one.<br>

<i>Writing</i>:<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> has picked out four finalists for the members to choose the  best one.<br>
<br>
And if you win...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prizes are (for both categories):<br>
<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>
<br>
2nd and 3rd places: Deviation will be added to a devpack called  "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icons will be featured in the  journal.<br>

CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>

<i>Theme</i>: Just to remind you all, the theme for this contest was Embrace.  As in being embraced into the race of the vampires (becoming one just  in case).<br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> has picked out five finalists for the members to choose the  best one.<br>
<br>
<i>Writing</i>:<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> has picked out four finalists for the members to choose the  best one.<br>
<br>
And if you win...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prizes are (for both categories):<br>
<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>
<br>
2nd and 3rd places: Deviation will be added to a devpack called  "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icons will be featured in the  journal.<br>

<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ Due to what was stated on deviantART Topics, we would like to inform  that, in our future contests, entries will no longer be faved, but only  added to Deviation Packs, in order to avoid trouble to both the club  and it's members.<br>
<br>
The much delayed contest is finally open!<br>
~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>:<br>
Note: Someone asked me if boyXboy is allowed in the contest... well...  no problem! boyXboy, girlXgirl, doesn't matter. [this part of the post  has been removed due to major maniac villainy-ness from ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>  affecting other deviants' "innocent" reputation.] Hah~<br>
<br>
WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE BLOOD ROSE SOCIETY?<br>
<br>
We're a club for those deviants who are addicted to, interested in, in  love with or just like vampires! It doesn't matter if it's Anne Rice  vampires, Vampire: The Masquerade vampires, or just plain vampires! As  long as you love vampires =3<br>
<br>
JOINING<br>
<br>
Send a note to the club, leave a comment on the club's main page, or  note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a> or ~<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com">crimson-ishtar</a>! If you have some vampire-related  work, send us a link and we'll add it to the favorites. Join only if  you like vampires, in case you're wondering. It doesn't matter if  you're an artist, poet, photographer, pixel artist or whatever! We'll  accept any type of vampire-related thing. ^^<br>
<br>
CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>

<br>
<i>Theme</i>: Embrace. As in being embraced into the race of the vampires  (becoming one just in case).<br>
<br>
Since our members are divided into writers and artists, we'll divide it  into two categories, artwork and writing. <b>Members are allowed to enter  the contest as many times as they wish on both categories; however, in  that case, only their best entry (chosen by the club founders) will be  allowed among the finalists in it's respective category.</b> <br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<br>
Any style of drawing. Please, tasteful nudity only (if there must be  any). If there are too many entries, <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> will pick out four finalists, and  the members will choose the best one.<br>

We're a club for those deviants who are addicted to, interested in, in  love with or just like vampires! It doesn't matter if it's Anne Rice  vampires, Vampire: The Masquerade vampires, or just plain vampires! As  long as you love vampires =3<br>
<br>
JOINING<br>
<br>
Send a note to the club, leave a comment on the club's main page, or  note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a> or ~<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com">crimson-ishtar</a>! If you have some vampire-related  work, send us a link and we'll add it to the favorites. Join only if  you like vampires, in case you're wondering. It doesn't matter if  you're an artist, poet, photographer, pixel artist or whatever! We'll  accept any type of vampire-related thing. ^^<br>
<br>
CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>
<br>
<br>
<img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_rose.gif" align="middle" alt="Rose" title="Rose" border="0" /> CONTESTS<img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_rose.gif" align="middle" alt="Rose" title="Rose" border="0" /> <br>
<br>
All RIGHT! A contest, a contest.<br>
<br>
After a week saying it'd be posted tomorrow, tomorrow has finally come <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_razz.gif" align="middle" alt="=P (Razz)" title="=P (Razz)" border="0" />   We apologize for the awful delay =_=;<br>
<br>
<i>Theme</i>: Embrace. As in being embraced into the race of the vampires  (becoming one just in case).<br>
<br>
Since our members are divided into writers and artists, we'll divide it  into two categories, artwork and writing. <b>Members are allowed to enter  the contest as many times as they wish on both categories; however, in  that case, only their best entry (chosen by the club founders) will be  allowed among the finalists in it's respective category.</b> <br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<br>
Any style of drawing. Please, tasteful nudity only (if there must be  any). If there are too many entries, <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> will pick out four finalists, and  the members will choose the best one.<br>
<br>
<i>Writing</i>:<br>
Any style of writing (poetry, prose, you know). No crude language  please. Like in the artwork category, if there are too many entries, <a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>  will pick out four finalists, and the members will choose the best.<br>
<br>
<i>Deadline</i>: <b>June 30th</b>. So you have one month to complete it. Should there  be less than three entries in any of the categories, the deadline will  be postponed <b>for that category only</b>.<br>
<br>
And if you win...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prizes are (for both categories):<br>
<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>

<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ Due to what was stated on deviantART Topics, we would like to inform  that, in our future contests, entries will no longer be faved, but only  added to Deviation Packs, in order to avoid trouble to both the club  and it's members.<br>
<br>
The much delayed contest is finally open!<br>
~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>:<br>
Note: Someone asked me if boyXboy is allowed in the contest... well...  no problem! boyXboy, girlXgirl, doesn't matter. [this part of the post  has been removed due to major maniac villainy-ness from ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>  affecting other deviants' "innocent" reputation.] Hah~<br>
<br>
WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE BLOOD ROSE SOCIETY?<br>
<br>
We're a club for those deviants who are addicted to, interested in, in  love with or just like vampires! It doesn't matter if it's Anne Rice  vampires, Vampire: The Masquerade vampires, or just plain vampires! As  long as you love vampires =3<br>
<br>
JOINING<br>
<br>
Send a note to the club, leave a comment on the club's main page, or  note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a> or ~<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com">crimson-ishtar</a>! If you have some vampire-related  work, send us a link and we'll add it to the favorites. Join only if  you like vampires, in case you're wondering. It doesn't matter if  you're an artist, poet, photographer, pixel artist or whatever! We'll  accept any type of vampire-related thing. ^^<br>
<br>
CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>
<br>

<br>
All RIGHT! A contest, a contest.<br>
<br>
After a week saying it'd be posted tomorrow, tomorrow has finally come <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_razz.gif" align="middle" alt="=P (Razz)" title="=P (Razz)" border="0" />   We apologize for the awful delay =_=;<br>
<br>
<i>Theme</i>: Embrace. As in being embraced into the race of the vampires  (becoming one just in case).<br>
<br>
Since our members are divided into writers and artists, we'll divide it  into two categories, artwork and writing. <b>Members are allowed to enter  the contest as many times as they wish on both categories; however, in  that case, only their best entry (chosen by the club founders) will be  allowed among the finalists in it's respective category.</b> <br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<br>
Any style of drawing. Please, tasteful nudity only (if there must be  any). If there are too many entries, <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> will pick out four finalists, and  the members will choose the best one.<br>
<br>
<i>Writing</i>:<br>
Any style of writing (poetry, prose, you know). No crude language  please. Like in the artwork category, if there are too many entries, <a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>  will pick out four finalists, and the members will choose the best.<br>
<br>
<i>Deadline</i>: <b>June 30th</b>. So you have one month to complete it. Should there  be less than three entries in any of the categories, the deadline will  be postponed <b>for that category only</b>.<br>

It doesn't matter if  you're an artist, poet, photographer, pixel artist or whatever! We'll  accept any type of vampire-related thing. ^^<br>
<br>
CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>
<br>
<br>
<img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_rose.gif" align="middle" alt="Rose" title="Rose" border="0" /> CONTESTS<img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_rose.gif" align="middle" alt="Rose" title="Rose" border="0" /> <br>
<br>
All RIGHT! A contest, a contest.<br>
<br>
After a week saying it'd be posted tomorrow, tomorrow has finally come <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_razz.gif" align="middle" alt="=P (Razz)" title="=P (Razz)" border="0" />   We apologize for the awful delay =_=;<br>
<br>
<i>Theme</i>: Embrace. As in being embraced into the race of the vampires  (becoming one just in case).<br>
<br>
Since our members are divided into writers and artists, we'll divide it  into two categories, artwork and writing. <b>Members are allowed to enter  the contest as many times as they wish on both categories; however, in  that case, only their best entry (chosen by the club founders) will be  allowed among the finalists in it's respective category.</b> <br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<br>
Any style of drawing. Please, tasteful nudity only (if there must be  any). If there are too many entries, <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> will pick out four finalists, and  the members will choose the best one.<br>
<br>
<i>Writing</i>:<br>
Any style of writing (poetry, prose, you know). No crude language  please. Like in the artwork category, if there are too many entries, <a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>  will pick out four finalists, and the members will choose the best.<br>
<br>
<i>Deadline</i>: <b>June 30th</b>. So you have one month to complete it. Should there  be less than three entries in any of the categories, the deadline will  be postponed <b>for that category only</b>.<br>
<br>
And if you win...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prizes are (for both categories):<br>
<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>

Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ Due to what was stated on deviantART Topics, we would like to inform  that, in our future contests, entries will no longer be faved, but only  added to Deviation Packs, in order to avoid trouble to both the club  and it's members.<br>
<br>
The much delayed contest is finally open!<br>
~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>:<br>
Note: Someone asked me if boyXboy is allowed in the contest... well...  no problem! boyXboy, girlXgirl, doesn't matter. [this part of the post  has been removed due to major maniac villainy-ness from ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>  affecting other deviants' "innocent" reputation.] Hah~<br>
<br>
WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE BLOOD ROSE SOCIETY?<br>
<br>
We're a club for those deviants who are addicted to, interested in, in  love with or just like vampires! It doesn't matter if it's Anne Rice  vampires, Vampire: The Masquerade vampires, or just plain vampires! As  long as you love vampires =3<br>
<br>
JOINING<br>
<br>
Send a note to the club, leave a comment on the club's main page, or  note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a> or ~<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com">crimson-ishtar</a>! If you have some vampire-related  work, send us a link and we'll add it to the favorites. Join only if  you like vampires, in case you're wondering. It doesn't matter if  you're an artist, poet, photographer, pixel artist or whatever! We'll  accept any type of vampire-related thing. ^^<br>
<br>
CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>
<br>
<br>
<img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_rose.gif" align="middle" alt="Rose" title="Rose" border="0" /> CONTESTS<img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_rose.gif" align="middle" alt="Rose" title="Rose" border="0" /> <br>
<br>
All RIGHT! A contest, a contest.<br>
<br>
After a week saying it'd be posted tomorrow, tomorrow has finally come <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_razz.gif" align="middle" alt="=P (Razz)" title="=P (Razz)" border="0" />   We apologize for the awful delay =_=;<br>
<br>
<i>Theme</i>: Embrace. As in being embraced into the race of the vampires  (becoming one just in case).<br>
<br>
Since our members are divided into writers and artists, we'll divide it  into two categories, artwork and writing. <b>Members are allowed to enter  the contest as many times as they wish on both categories; however, in  that case, only their best entry (chosen by the club founders) will be  allowed among the finalists in it's respective category.</b> <br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<br>
Any style of drawing. Please, tasteful nudity only (if there must be  any). If there are too many entries, <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> will pick out four finalists, and  the members will choose the best one.<br>
<br>
<i>Writing</i>:<br>
Any style of writing (poetry, prose, you know). No crude language  please. Like in the artwork category, if there are too many entries, <a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>  will pick out four finalists, and the members will choose the best.<br>
<br>
<i>Deadline</i>: <b>June 30th</b>. So you have one month to complete it. Should there  be less than three entries in any of the categories, the deadline will  be postponed <b>for that category only</b>.<br>
<br>
And if you win...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prizes are (for both categories):<br>
<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>.

One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>

Since our members are divided into writers and artists, we'll divide it  into two categories, artwork and writing. <b>Members are allowed to enter  the contest as many times as they wish on both categories; however, in  that case, only their best entry (chosen by the club founders) will be  allowed among the finalists in it's respective category.</b> <br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<br>
Any style of drawing. Please, tasteful nudity only (if there must be  any). If there are too many entries, <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> will pick out four finalists, and  the members will choose the best one.<br>
<br>
<i>Writing</i>:<br>
Any style of writing (poetry, prose, you know). No crude language  please. Like in the artwork category, if there are too many entries, <a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>  will pick out four finalists, and the members will choose the best.<br>
<br>
<i>Deadline</i>: <b>June 30th</b>. So you have one month to complete it. Should there  be less than three entries in any of the categories, the deadline will  be postponed <b>for that category only</b>.<br>

And if you win...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prizes are (for both categories):<br>
<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ Due to what was stated on deviantART Topics, we would like to inform  that, in our future contests, entries will no longer be faved, but only  added to Deviation Packs, in order to avoid trouble to both the club  and it's members.<br>
<br>
The much delayed contest is finally open!<br>
~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>:<br>
Note: Someone asked me if boyXboy is allowed in the contest... well...  no problem! boyXboy, girlXgirl, doesn't matter. [this part of the post  has been removed due to major maniac villainy-ness from ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>  affecting other deviants' "innocent" reputation.] Hah~<br>
<br>
WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE BLOOD ROSE SOCIETY?<br>
<br>
We're a club for those deviants who are addicted to, interested in, in  love with or just like vampires! It doesn't matter if it's Anne Rice  vampires, Vampire: The Masquerade vampires, or just plain vampires! As  long as you love vampires =3<br>
<br>
JOINING<br>
<br>
Send a note to the club, leave a comment on the club's main page, or  note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a> or ~<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com">crimson-ishtar</a>! If you have some vampire-related  work, send us a link and we'll add it to the favorites. Join only if  you like vampires, in case you're wondering. It doesn't matter if  you're an artist, poet, photographer, pixel artist or whatever! We'll  accept any type of vampire-related thing. ^^<br>
<br>
CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>
<br>
<br>

<br>
All RIGHT! A contest, a contest.<br>
<br>
After a week saying it'd be posted tomorrow, tomorrow has finally come <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_razz.gif" align="middle" alt="=P (Razz)" title="=P (Razz)" border="0" />   We apologize for the awful delay =_=;<br>
<br>
<i>Theme</i>: Embrace. As in being embraced into the race of the vampires  (becoming one just in case).<br>
<br>
Since our members are divided into writers and artists, we'll divide it  into two categories, artwork and writing. <b>Members are allowed to enter  the contest as many times as they wish on both categories; however, in  that case, only their best entry (chosen by the club founders) will be  allowed among the finalists in it's respective category.</b> <br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<br>
Any style of drawing. Please, tasteful nudity only (if there must be  any). If there are too many entries, <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> will pick out four finalists, and  the members will choose the best one.<br>
<br>
<i>Writing</i>:<br>
Any style of writing (poetry, prose, you know). No crude language  please. Like in the artwork category, if there are too many entries, <a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>  will pick out four finalists, and the members will choose the best.<br>
<br>
<i>Deadline</i>: <b>June 30th</b>. So you have one month to complete it. Should there  be less than three entries in any of the categories, the deadline will  be postponed <b>for that category only</b>.<br>
<br>
And if you win...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prizes are (for both categories):<br>
<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>

<br>
All RIGHT! A contest, a contest.<br>
<br>
After a week saying it'd be posted tomorrow, tomorrow has finally come <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_razz.gif" align="middle" alt="=P (Razz)" title="=P (Razz)" border="0" />   We apologize for the awful delay =_=;<br>
<br>
<i>Theme</i>: Embrace. As in being embraced into the race of the vampires  (becoming one just in case).<br>
<br>
Since our members are divided into writers and artists, we'll divide it  into two categories, artwork and writing. <b>Members are allowed to enter  the contest as many times as they wish on both categories; however, in  that case, only their best entry (chosen by the club founders) will be  allowed among the finalists in it's respective category.</b> <br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<br>
Any style of drawing. Please, tasteful nudity only (if there must be  any). If there are too many entries, <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> will pick out four finalists, and  the members will choose the best one.<br>
<br>
<i>Writing</i>:<br>
Any style of writing (poetry, prose, you know). No crude language  please. Like in the artwork category, if there are too many entries, <a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>  will pick out four finalists, and the members will choose the best.<br>
<br>
<i>Deadline</i>: <b>June 30th</b>. So you have one month to complete it. Should there  be less than three entries in any of the categories, the deadline will  be postponed <b>for that category only</b>.<br>
<br>
And if you win...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prizes are (for both categories):<br>
<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ Due to what was stated on <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/news/10335/">deviantART Topics</a>, we would like to inform  that, in our future contests, entries will no longer be faved, but only  added to Deviation Packs, in order to avoid trouble to both the club  and it's members.<br>
<br>
The much delayed contest is finally open!<br>
~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>:<br>
Note: Someone asked me if boyXboy is allowed in the contest... well...  no problem! boyXboy, girlXgirl, doesn't matter. [this part of the post  has been removed due to major maniac villainy-ness from ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>  affecting other deviants' "innocent" reputation.] Hah~<br>
<br>
WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE BLOOD ROSE SOCIETY?<br>
<br>
We're a club for those deviants who are addicted to, interested in, in  love with or just like vampires! It doesn't matter if it's Anne Rice  vampires, Vampire: The Masquerade vampires, or just plain vampires! As  long as you love vampires =3<br>
<br>
JOINING<br>
<br>
Send a note to the club, leave a comment on the club's main page, or  note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a> or ~<a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com">crimson-ishtar</a>! If you have some vampire-related  work, send us a link and we'll add it to the favorites. Join only if  you like vampires, in case you're wondering. It doesn't matter if  you're an artist, poet, photographer, pixel artist or whatever! We'll  accept any type of vampire-related thing. ^^<br>
<br>
CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>

                <description><![CDATA[ Congratulations <a href="http://toxic-erotica.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/toxic-erotica.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> for being our prized <b>69th</b> member! That's a feat! <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_xd.gif" align="middle" alt="XD" title="XD" border="0" />  We  hit 69 members! Whoooohooo!<br>
<br>
The much delayed contest is finally open!<br>
~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>:<br>
Note: Someone asked me if boyXboy is allowed in the contest... well...  no problem! boyXboy, girlXgirl, doesn't matter. [this part of the post  has been removed due to major maniac villainy-ness from ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>  affecting other deviants' "innocent" reputation.] Hah~<br>
<br>
WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THE BLOOD ROSE SOCIETY?<br>
<br>
We're a club for those deviants who are addicted to, interested in, in  love with or just like vampires! It doesn't matter if it's Anne Rice  vampires, Vampire: The Masquerade vampires, or just plain vampires! As  long as you love vampires =3<br>
<br>
JOINING<br>
<br>
Send a note to the club, leave a comment on the club's main page, or  note ~<a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com">neonclover</a>! If you have some vampire-related work, send us a link  and we'll add it to the favorites. Join only if you like vampires, in  case you're wondering. It doesn't matter if you're an artist, poet,  photographer, pixel artist or whatever! We'll accept any type of  vampire-related thing. ^^<br>
<br>
CLUB RULES<br>
<br>
Same as DA's rules. They seem good enough. But just one more thing:<br>
One member can't flame another's club submission! That's a no-no! Also,  don't fight among yourselves or we'll kick your bloo'y butts. Putting  the club icon in the sig or journal is appreciated, but not ESSENTIAL,  so if you have a lack of space, don't sweat it. ;3<br>
<br>
<br>
<img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_rose.gif" align="middle" alt="Rose" title="Rose" border="0" /> CONTESTS<img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_rose.gif" align="middle" alt="Rose" title="Rose" border="0" /> <br>
<br>
All RIGHT! A contest, a contest.<br>
<br>
After a week saying it'd be posted tomorrow, tomorrow has finally come <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_razz.gif" align="middle" alt="=P (Razz)" title="=P (Razz)" border="0" />   We apologize for the awful delay =_=;<br>
<br>
<i>Theme</i>: Embrace. As in being embraced into the race of the vampires  (becoming one just in case).<br>
<br>
Since our members are divided into writers and artists, we'll divide it  into two categories, artwork and writing. <b>Members are allowed to enter  the contest as many times as they wish on both categories; however, in  that case, only their best entry (chosen by the club founders) will be  allowed among the finalists in it's respective category.</b> <br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<br>
Any style of drawing. Please, tasteful nudity only (if there must be  any). If there are too many entries, <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> will pick out four finalists, and  the members will choose the best one.<br>
<br>
<i>Writing</i>:<br>
Any style of writing (poetry, prose, you know). No crude language  please. Like in the artwork category, if there are too many entries, <a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>  will pick out four finalists, and the members will choose the best.<br>
<br>
<i>Deadline</i>: <b>June 30th</b>. So you have one month to complete it. Should there  be less than three entries in any of the categories, the deadline will  be postponed <b>for that category only</b>.<br>
<br>
And if you win...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prizes are (for both categories):<br>
<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>

<br>
All RIGHT! A contest, a contest.<br>
<br>
After a week saying it'd be posted tomorrow, tomorrow has finally come <img src="http://images.deviantart.com/emoticons/icon_razz.gif" align="middle" alt="=P (Razz)" title="=P (Razz)" border="0" />   We apologize for the awful delay =_=;<br>
<br>
<i>Theme</i>: Embrace. As in being embraced into the race of the vampires  (becoming one just in case).<br>
<br>
Since our members are divided into writers and artists, we'll divide it  into two categories, artwork and writing. <b>Members are allowed to enter  the contest as many times as they wish on both categories; however, in  that case, only their best entry (chosen by the club founders) will be  allowed among the finalists in it's respective category.</b> <br>
<br>
<i>Artwork</i>:<br>
Any style of drawing. Please, tasteful nudity only (if there must be  any). If there are too many entries, <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> will pick out four finalists, and  the members will choose the best one.<br>
<br>
<i>Writing</i>:<br>
Any style of writing (poetry, prose, you know). No crude language  please. Like in the artwork category, if there are too many entries, <a href="http://crimson-ishtar.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/crimson-ishtar.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>  will pick out four finalists, and the members will choose the best.<br>
<br>
<i>Deadline</i>: <b>June 30th</b>. So you have one month to complete it. Should there  be less than three entries in any of the categories, the deadline will  be postponed <b>for that category only</b>.<br>
<br>
And if you win...<br>
Since <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a> is lame and poor, she can't send out actual prizes. Thus, the  prizes are (for both categories):<br>
<br>
1st place: Deviation will be added to a devpack called "Embrace Contest  Winners" as well as the "Embrace Contest Finalists". The winner's icon  will be featured in the journal and all members will be notified. Also,  the winners (writer and artist) will receive a picture drawn and CG'd  by <a href="http://neonclover.deviantart.com"><img src="http://images.deviantart.com/deviants/neonclover.gif" width="50" height="50" border="0"></a>. Check out my gallery to see what I can do X3 I'll do realism ONLY  if it's a "copy" of an actual picture. Otherwise, it can be either pure  anime or "anime-esque" pictures (look at my gallery and see what I  mean. Shameless self-promotion, maybe. ;P) Obviously the winner gets to  pick the picture's theme, duh x_o<br>
<br>
2nd and 3rd places: Deviation will be added... ]]></description>
