Yesterday was the final day to submit to the collab picture! Thank you everybody who participated! Kikulina shall be working on putting it all together. If you submitted, PLEASE make sure that the picture is both in the group, AND in the collab folder! Otherwise it might get overlooked.
Anybody who wants their picture in the big group collab has until August 15th to submit it! That's 6 days away! (I know I said August 1st in the last journal, but I told the people August 15th when I messaged them personally... oops)
You might be wondering who I am. I am pynni on my new account. Now, you might have noticed that I have been doing jack SQUAT around here at this group, and really, it's because I am lazy and a procrastinator. It IS true that my life has been busy lately, and I've had plenty of other things on my mind, and so running an internet group was really not on the top of my to-do list, but it has been long enough since I've done anything here that it is honestly a bit ridiculous, and I am honestly very embarassed by it. I would like to thank both TamarinFrog and Kikulina for running the show in my absence, and I would like to ensure everybody that I do not intend on it happening again. If I ever get to the point that I really don't think I can run the group at all anymore, I will pass control over to somebody else.

But for now, there are a few things I want to talk about...

:bulletred: First, the list. I'm not really sure about it. It isn't that I disagree with the choices we made when making the list exactly, but it's just that there are as many cons to having one as there are pros. It's nice to have a good ref to look at to see generally the Pokemon that we will be featuring in the group, BUT plenty of people I'm sure can say that one of their favorites which is NOT on the list is considered ugly by some- their friends hate it for looking stupid, they get made fun of for liking a weird Pokemon, whatever- and they create a picture in response to all the hate. That's the kind of thing this group encourages, and I don't think we should turn away that picture just because it isn't on our list. I think that the list should be kept as a kind of ref for pictures to recommend to our gallery, but at the same time, it will not be 100% concrete.

:bulletorange: The Collab project. Oh my gosh the collab project. Uuugh, there are so many requests still pending, and these were made MONTHS ago. I really, really dropped the ball when it came to keeping track of this one, and I am SO sorry for that. And though I really hate to do it this way, as it is a lazy way out, but, here we go...

Yes. You may draw that Pokemon. If you have made any request in the past to draw a certain Pokemon, back when the project was getting started, and that request has not already been denied, my answer to you is yes.

I am NOT going to be reopening the requests, and I shall be going around individually telling people they can draw the Pokemon they requested, regardless of if it is on the list or if it is a double. I think we have enough already that the group picture would be pretty sizeable, and really, it's celebrating all Pokemon regardless of looks, so being on the list here is not too too important. And one or two doubles is not going to kill the picture.

All pictures will be due by the END OF JULY. That is just over two weeks.

So yeah... All of that was rather simple... Don't know why I didn't get off my ass earlier and just DO it, but, well, at least I am doing it now. I am sorry for the absence, and it shall not happen again.
Sorry this took so long to get out! I didn't bring some stuff over to my new computer, and most of the finished list was a part of it. Anyways, here is the current Ugly Pokemon list, as BehindtG, Kikulina and myself have made... They are not perfectly in order, but they are separated by generation.
