All staff positions are officially volunteer positions. Artists are compensated in the form of baubles for each set done, but Eldemore cannot offer real-world currency. ^^

    Application:
    Please fill out all parts of the form to the best of your abilities, using legible English and complete sentences where applicable. Experience with other pet adoptable sites or art sites in general should be stated within your form, as we would love to have an experienced artist join us to help with our events and heavier months. At the bottom of the form, you'll find a link to download our art test file. Please use it to complete the last item in the form to the best of your ability.

    Also, please understand that this is a volunteer position. We do not compensate artists with any real world currency at this time, nor are we in any position to. Our staff is a great place to gain experience for your artistic skills, add to your resume, and work with an awesome team of fellow artists.

    If you believe you fit all these requirements and wish to help, please take the time to fill out the form below in its entirety by copying it into an email and sending it to: applications@eldemore.com.
    Please make the subject line "Application for Artist: [your username]". If you have any questions, please send a private message to either Benathorn or Jendalie, or email us at the same address.

    After the closing date, we will take time to review the forms and contact the members we feel will best serve the site and its many users.


    It is stated in our artist application forms so be sure to read through it all carefully before applying if you choose to do so.

I have question regarding the archivist position. When it says, "You must be knowledgeable in the site's lore, pets, and layout, but most of all, current pet outcomes and growths, which is the meat and potatoes of this position," does this mean that I have to know the whole backstory of the sealer?
I have only been on the site since the Spring Event of 2016 so my knowledge of the sealer's story is limited. Will this affect my chances of being chosen as Archivist?

I think the most important part is knowing what pet is what. Should a newbie ask you about some outcome, that you'd be able to know what species it is, that you can explain what a pygmy is.
Though it's always great to know some background on the whole lore! There's a thread with all the cutscenes of the events here: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=10578
That's a great way to get up to speed with the story if you're interested :)

(also this comment should be backed up by staff/Bena ^-^)
