Affiliation Guidelines & Affiliates
Note: Affiliates are carefully chosen and have my highest respect. It's not my intention to make them follow these rules. While some rules are steadfast, others will serve only as guidelines.
Affiliation Guidelines:
- Your site must not contain improper content and must be viewable by all age groups.
- Your site need not be a graphic resource site to affiliate, though sites of similar content are preferred.
- How popular/unpopular your site is, is not an issue. How many updates you make in a month isn't either. How many affiliates you have will never be.
- If you are a graphic site, I expect that you offer graphics or resources that are you yourself are willing to use, at one time or the other. It's not a must but, it is something that will increase my respect for you and your chances of acceptance.
- I'd like for us to keep in contact. It doesn't have to be everyday or week; it doesn't have to detailed happenings of your life or your newest trick. A comment, instant message or even an e-mail would suffice regardless of how rare that might be.
- If at any time and for whatever reason you choose to end affiliation with AExA, you may. I won't press for reasons, although giving me one would be nice.
Affiliates in detail
Below are a complete list of AExA's affiliates and my personal comments on each.
ChanLu Design: Charlotte & Rogelio
The first time I visited ChanLu, I was struck by their professionalism. Their dark, vector based designs have always left me amazed and inspired to create.
Ensomnia: Ellada
Ensomnia, of course, needs no introduction. Ellada's designs are pleasing to the eye, in both design and code and I love how she always strives to improve.
Fallen Dreams: Tammy
Tammy and I were friends long before we affiliated. I love the humor that she instils in her graphics and updates which makes visiting FD all the more interesting.
Fly Angel: April Duong
When I first came across Fly Angel, I instantly fell in love with her artistry. Fly Angel is full of promise and growth, I can't wait to see more of April's work.
Junk & Trash: Erica Lee
Junk & Trash is a paradox to its name; there is nothing on Erica's site that is even remotely trash-like. Her soft, and gorgeously blended designs are simply breathtaking.
Muse City: Cindy Song
I've always enjoyed Cindy's designs, even back when she had Autistic Fidelity. Her out-of-the-box designs have always been wonderfully refreshing.
Neogrotesque : Yui
Neogrotesque centers around J-Rock designs and is a contradiction to its name in my opinion. Yui's designs are impressive, dark and one-of-a-kind.
Skyefairy: Skye
I admire Skye's dedication to her site. Skyefairy is a creative arts site that not only show-cases Skye's creative abilities but allows for others to do the same.
