Time machine Collab made by ~greenafire and ~Nice-Spice is brilliant collab between two newer emoticonists. The panels have each been nicely created with great consistency and some amusing scenes.

I love the textures given to the trees and grass in I'll wait for you by =Siaandra. The story between the two sides is very sweet and come together well to make a single awesome piece

Emotizine - Volume 2:iconemotizine:
The twice-monthly article covering news, contests, and other happenings all around the deviantART Emoticon Community. We will also feature interviews, art features, and more. This zine is a collective work of many emoticonists. You can see our full staff list, as well as find additional information on emoticon community events by visiting the official zine group #Emotizine.
Note this is our first zine article, so things are still a bit experimental and we may have missed an item or two. Don't be alarmed. Be sure to follow us over the next few weeks as we broaden our features and get things settled.

EMTC Time! by =^SparklyDest
Deadline: January 30th

The Winners of the 2011 Emote AwardsGreetings, and welcome to #TheEmoteAwards, 2011 edition!

I am your host, `stuck-in-suburbia and I want to thank everyone for letting me host the third annual Emote Awards! You know what they say, the third time's the charm.

Today, we celebrate those among us who have really excelled this year. However, I have a few guidelines for the acceptance speeches;

Don't thank your parents. They really don't want to know what you get up to online, or be associated with it.

Don't get on your soapbox, or talk at all about politics. If I wanted a nap, I would actually go to class.

Finally, when you're given your award, don't complain that it's not shiny. I'm sorry, but I ran out of glitter half way through.Now that I've rambled on long enough, we can get on to announcing the winners!
Best Animated Emoticonist

Runner-up: ~LedMaiden

I asked in a previous Journal that every Emoticonist should write a comment there.
You can still do it on this Journal if you haven't commented yet.
I sent notes to all of those who commented there and asked them a couple of questions.
And now I am going to feature all of this deviants and their answers

If you saw that I have featured you and i didn't include all of your answers/or any answers, you could write a Journal and include all of your answers there. ;D

What is your first reaction when you find a new Emoticonist?
I am normally really excited as it is always nice to see a new take on emotes. Everyone has their own spin on them, and new blood means new ideas/shading/etc.

So i herd u liek features?? Vol1For a while now, I've been out of the loop of the emote community. This has been down to a mixture of reasons, however, in a way I've missed it. I'm not ready to start up my old news article, but i feel it would be nice to offer a few features once in a while, whether they be emotes, groups or projects. So I've decided to post a journal, which may become a regular thing, promoting a few things i've seen in the emote community over the past few days.

Featured emotes

Toothless and Hiccup by =Kyramy is one of my favourite emotes posted recently. The shading and detail in each of the two characters is amazing and it just makes an adorable scene.

Over the years i've seen some great video game related emotes and this is another to add to the list. Tetris by =Web5teR has all the joys of the original game but with an added emote twist. The animation and looping is well thought out to create a brilliant emoticon

January 2012 EMTC! + 22 Entries! + 1 DAYS LEFT!!

Two legs attached, only four more to go! There will be pictures before this day is over. And we are only 3 away from my 25 mark.
New prize added! A few points...and a small plushie! And...if we can manage 25 ENTRIES this month....I might be tempted to offer yarn creations for future contests as well.
TIME

I admit, the EMTC hasn't been getting a lot of love from me lately. Real life interceding, and all the stress and craziness of the holidays.

But, with the start of the new year, things will slow down and there will be "time"

to do more things. Hopefully. :shifty: This is suppose to be the last year and all. :cough: Anyways, I decided this would be a good theme for the new year. Perhaps your emote finally has time to focus on some of its hobbies....or it is obsessed with clocks. M

I'm still pretty new to the emote business, so I'm always excited to find some new talented emoticonists! If I find something relatable to my preferences, I even go

The Emoticon Corner - Volume 3A (mostly) bi-monthly article featuring emoticons, emoticonists, as well as other fun stuff having to do with emotes. This feature combines, replaces, and re-imagines the "Random Emote Awesomeness" and "Amazing Emoticonists" articles.
============================================

Emoticonist Spotlight
:iconsahina-waya: ~EternalxRequiem

The bouncing action on this emote is simple but perfect. Love the little leaf.

Emoticon Contest: past vs. present vs. futureI am proud to present you my first "official" Emoticon Contest.

At first I want to tell you something about the theme:
As you have read the theme is past vs. present vs. future, this means your entry has to include something from the past, present and future. The time isn't set, this means that the past could be just 1 day ago or 100 years ago it's the same with the future. For example: you could display how the emotes have lived in the past how they are living now and how they could live in the future.
Be creative and surprise me with your imagination

The Contest is divided into 2 Categories:
The first Category will be for deviants who would like to work alone. And the second category is for deviants who want to work with somebody (a collaboration category ;D) 2 deviants can work together.
But you could also enter in both categories!

Below you can find the rules of each category and what you have to keep in mind.

Emoticonist Spotlight

The pixelling and the animation on this piece are simply amazing. And the little baker is incredibly cute.

:icononionblitz: =OnionBlaze

I love this piece for its simplicity and effectiveness. Very nice work.

Gifts for the next Emote CV - Project : UPDATE GUYS!!! We have a new Emoticon CV :iconexcitedplz: :iconexcitedplz: :iconexcitedplz:
It's `stuck-in-suburbia :iconeeeeeplz:
All those who have entered have to update their Entry with the OC of her

I thought it would be nice to create welcoming gifts for the next Emoticon CV.

The goal of this project is to  show that we fully support the next emoticon community volunteer, no matter who it will be.
All you have to do is to create an Emoticon that shows what the next cv could need,  a bucket full of love or something completely different ;D
if you want to you could display the emote version of the next emote cv as a black emote with a questionmark and as soon as we know who the next emote cv will be, we change it to his/her oc.
