A summer Secret Santa, eh?
Anjil, perhaps you'd like to run that one?

UPDATE: It has come to my attention that several of you have not gotten your Secret Santa pictures in yet (and yes, holy crap, I am one of them). Anyway, some of you have quite a bit of reasons why you haven't gotten them in yet, and most of them are surprisingly understandable. I know, since 2009 has been a harsh year for just about everyone, and many of you are growing up, applying for colleges, looking for jobs, and all that jazz.
For this reason, I will be extending the deadline to January 15th to complete and submit your Secret Santa gift by then. This time there will be NO excuses, and those who fail to get them in will have a stern talking to! And for those who have been left out will have their gifts drawn by any kind-hearted volunteers who is willing to step up. And if nobody comes to volunteer, I'll be drawing the remaining gifts myself (as punishment for myself, sort of, and yes I know I'm awful at all this, my apologies).

Ok, it's that time guys and gals! I woke up this morning and I could feel the deadline whooshing in. It scared all the birds though, and now I can't find anything decent to take a photo of. It got rid of all the pesky snow that has been invading Britain though!
Aaaanyway, this year, we're going to name those who haven't submitted their secret santas. At least two sent me or Teh Yoshi PMs back with legitimate reasons, but we should keep the playing field level. This isn't a wall of shame, it's just a list of those who didn't get anything in, along with their unfortunate other halves.
First on the list is Zyph. He was the secret santa for Leoshi. Second, is RaYoshi. He was the secret santa for Shoe. Third was Sanjo. He was the secret santa for Fluory. Forth was Sakura. She was the secret santa for Rainbow Yoshi. Lastly, was Yoshark. He was the secret santa for Kimmorz.
If there are any volunteers who would like to complete the outstanding secret santas, feel free to post up to make sure there isn't any extra submissions for the same person! If there are no stand-in santas for those who didn't receive anything, Teh Yoshi has kindly offered to draw those left outstanding.
Huge thanks go to those who got them in on Christmas Day, and those who submitted after my reminder PM, and to Teh Yoshi for organising the event and giving me the opportunity to be involved in a community event that brings us all together.

Aw, that's too bad. Oh well, everyone knows the holiday season is busy as can be, so I'm sure they all had their reasons. I'll volunteer to take one, if that's alright! It won't be nearly as detailed as my gift to teh yoshi, but it'll be something. Is there a due date for this?

You know that no one is trying to put you to shame Zyph, it's just they're probably trying to get gifts to the Santees. It's a good thing you posted though, now they know not to give your commission to someone else. Everything'll be fine. Oh, and I can take a stand-in santa position. I'll take anyone's duty except Zyph's. Or anyone else's who might show up and have something to say.

Thats absolutely not a problem Anjil. Also, there is no due date for stand-in santas gifts to be completed. And Zyph, it's fine, don't worry about it, but I'm sure you can appreciate why there is a deadline though right? We're flexible, so we're fine with allowing you the weekend to complete. So far, the current lineup of stand-in santas are... Leoshi - Zyph given extension to complete for the 18th. Shoe - Yoshee is Shoe's Stand-in Santa Fluory - Jojora is Fluory's Stand-in Santa Rainbow Yoshi - Anjil is Rainbow Yoshi's Stand-in Santa Kimmorz - YoshiAgent is Kimmorz's Stand-in Santa 0 left. Anjil, is Rainbow Yoshi alright with you or do you have anyone else in mind? YoshiAgent, same, is Kimmorz OK with you or do you have anyone else in mind? edit: List filled.

Nope, Kimmorz is fine with me. I'll get to that now, or uh, some time today.

I'll stand in although if it's all right, my contribution will be in music and not drawing.

It's most likely already too late to say this, but I'll say it anyways.
I know I screwed up; and pretty badly at that, and I am so sorry for it. The last thing I wanted was for someone to fill my place(although it's already happening), so I'm still going to try my best to finish it. I don't really know how to apologize to make it sound sincere on the internet, but I'm doing my best to do so. Disappointed a bit of people, I know, and I'm sorry for that too. I don't like to make excuses, so don't extend the date for me. I'm late, extremely late, and I am so, so very sorry for it.

Don't worry about it, Ra. It's no big deal.
