Summer Design Team Search!!

It's amazing to me that we are still going strong and that the time has come AGAIN to choose new Design Team Members!! It's our tradition here in the Gutter, that our team members get to stay with us for as long as they feel able and willing to take on the team work. When a team member signs on, they sign on for a 6 month stay, and then at that time, they evaluate whether they'd like to stay on, or be one of our alumni! This call, we'll be saying THANK YOU to three of our Girlz next month. Stacey, Christine, Adrienne have decided that they are ready for a break, and so that means that we need to find new meat Girlz to take their place! The girlz will "stay on" on as Alumni, and will hopefully be joining us on future prompts for the fun of it!! We are looking to fill three spots.

TEAM INFORMATION:

1. By submitting, you will be signing up for 6 months worth of commitment. After that time, you can take a step back, or choose to sign up for another 6 months!
2. Our design team members sign up to sponsor a prize once during their time on the team. The prize can be hand made, or store bought. Please keep the prize value at around $10 dollars.
3. Designers should expect to do at least one of the two challenges offered each month. More is fine, but only one is necessary. Designers can work a prompt in advance and projects are due 2 days before the prompts. Prompts are posted on the 15th and 30th of every month.
   
4. Be active in commenting and thanking girlz who visit and link their projects in our challenges.
   
5. Promote Gutter Girlz in your on line communities as allowed by their Terms of Use, and Promotion of Gutter Girlz on your personal blog at prompt time!
