I'm not always online so there will be many things that I will miss, but please don't feel left out because of it - it's not intentional on my part.
This just in: We've a special guest in the studio today! No, it's not that dense Liam, who has been mysteriously quiet lately. It's a most mysterious (yet approachable) individual known only as The Intelli-Gent! You may know this dapper user as the person in charge of The Intelli-Castle: Royal Freebie Hangout & Giveaway Thread which aims to spread kindness, charity, and lovely art all across the Art Freebies forum.
Thanks for joining us! Let's begin: Why did you found The Intelli-Castle?
Well now, though it's an art-based thread, The Intelli-Castle actually began life as a charity many years ago. It was opened on a whim, but then something rather magical happened, and the lovely little community which formed is still here eight years later! As that community has evolved over the years, it is now an art hangout, but we still host the giveaways which were popular in our charity days, too!
What a truly impressive tale! If I might ask, what would you say fuels the spirit of The Intelli-Castle? Who keeps it alive, and how?
I think it is a spirit of friendship and fun which has made it successful, and all the kind and creative Gaians who have joined over the years... though I suspect that the quirky games and tradition of "tease The Gent" may also have something to do with it (my top hat certainly goes missing on an unerringly regular basis). With love extended to everybody in the Castle, I would particularly like to say that my longest-standing crew members, BabyKagomeGirl, Maria Moonfang, PetrichoraV, de Hemel op Aarde and teastain, have been very dear friends and helped splendidly in keeping things running smoothly. heart
Fantastic! A trusty team of talented individuals taking care of a first rate thread. Before we wrap up this chat, I'd like to ask just one more question: What would you say to anyone wishing to visit The Intelli-Castle and contribute to this fabulous organization?
We're always happy to see newcomers in our happy little Gaia-home, so anyone is welcome to drop in for a little tea, a little nonsense, and a chocolate biscuit or two! Artistic ability is not essential; a sense of humour probably is. Please mind the explosions and the piranhas.
Anyone interested in teaming up with The Intelli-Castle to win some great prizes, help out Gaians in need, score some charming avatar art, or even make some for yourself should make it a point to drop by the The Intelli-Castle: Royal Freebie Hangout & Giveaway Thread to hang out with some fantastic folk!
