RotB is in need of some extra paws!
Life happens- we get it, but we need to move on. A serious backlog of certs has built up and unfortunately, our primary cert artist has left us. We've tried to keep up, but life continues to happen on all sides so we're looking to recruit a little help.

What we need•••
► 1-3 Cert Artists.
► Cert Artists that can do weekly cert drops to keep up with demand.
► Cert Artists that are organized, can work without being asked to, and maintain the high standard that RotB prides itself on.

What you get in return•••
► Every month you earn one custom. You will post in the staff section of the guild requesting a custom and whichever artist is available will fulfill it for you.
► ALL THE THANKS. Seriously.

How we cert...

Certing Guidelines

Certing ||
The PSD's for the certs can be found here:
Cert

• Make sure to save as a sig safe jpeg to keep the quality.
• Encourage those in your certing thread to save to their own server.
• Post certs to the appropriate artists drop-off box and quote the owner of the cert.

Dimensions ||
Sizing notes:
• The sizes written below are meant for files that are trimmed, i.e no "extra space" around the pet.
• You do not have to be spot on with the sizing as secondary traits and edits can throw off the sizing, but try your best to keep close.
• Remember to add the default outer glow to each pet.

Uploading Certs ...
Upon hiring, you will be provided with staff section access. This will allow you to gain access to the newly-created Photobucket and the password to access it.

To keep things organized:
→ Every artist has a folder.
→ Every folder has a sub-folder for each tribe.
→ Upload the B'alam accordingly.

Dropping Certs ...
Every artist has a subforum in the dropoff area. Drop the certs off within the corresponding colorist's thread.

→ Make sure to quote the owner so they know their cert has been dropped off.
→ Make sure you cross off any certs that you've done so other cert artists don't duplicate your work.

Payment...
Every month, at the first of the month, you may post a custom form in the form provided to you upon hire. Any artist may grab your custom and complete it. You can keep the custom, give it away, use it in a plot, etc.

We don't make a lot of gold in RotB. Most of our events are free and paid events are extremely rare- so we can't compensate with gold or items.

To Apply...
First off... Code of Conduct.
The Realm of the B'alam is a different kind of RP shop. We hold ourselves and our staff members to a very high standard. Every shop member represents the shop and the community as a whole. We aren't forcing anyone to apply- but if you do, be aware that your conduct as much as your work will come into consideration.

► No crude/foul language.
This includes signatures. It's very hard for someone who doesn't know you/understand your humor to approach you with an issue if you have hostile, inflammatory, or crude language in your sig or you in-thread speech pattern. Someone may have a concern about their cert that needs correcting but may be afraid to say something.

► Be polite and respectful to /everyone/.
It's no secret that people have different opinions on everything under the sun. A disagreement is no reason to treat anyone badly. Keep your cool, and if there's a problem that your temper can't handle- direct another staff member that way.

► Be professional.
This means you don't share sensitive info with the rest of the shop. We'll be creating a photobucket account specifically for certs and cert artists to access. There shouldn't be any private info in there, but you will gain access to the staff section so you can claim your monthly rewards. If you disclose sensitive, private info- you could face termination from the staff.

► Don't badmouth other shops and/or users in the shop.
We all have people, places, and things we don't like. Say what you want in PM or IM but keep negativity out of the main thread.

Second Step- Application.
Fill out the form below. We'll be asking that you cert two adult B'alam, two cub B'alam, and two B'alam/Familiar pairs. We'll look over your entries and see who is the most consistent.

If you are hired- we will contact you!
