Character Disputes (link to forum)

Attention Wolfhome Users!

If you are having an issue with a character being taken back or with wanting to take it back from someone, the ART is no longer going to be involved. We will no longer be the ones going out of our way to communicate and try to resolve issues. Instead, it will be up to you, as mature users, to resolve your disputes. We advise you are cautious with who you buy or trade characters with and check ToS details carefully.

If a character issue is reported, the only stance the ART will take, from now on, is stopping all use of the character (i.e. revoking poses, removing images from sniffs and profiles, etc.).

In order to regain usage of the character, we will require PMs from all sides of the issue stating things have been resolved. Please remember to be respectful towards your fellow users as well as the ART and administration team when you are making reports/writing PMs.

Thank you for your understanding,
The Wolfhome Administration
Art Review Team

Welcome to the 2011 Wolfhome Secret Santa Pose Swap Event!

Every year, the inhabitants of the forum come together to celebrate the holidays and spread some cheer. What better way to do them both than to make a Christmas-themed pose! For those of you who don't know how this works, once you submit your name and information on the template located at the bottom of this post, your name is automatically dropped into a drawing box. We will then randomly assign you someone to draw a pose for. Here's the catch... That person will not know who is drawing a pose for them! The same goes for you too. It'll be like waking up on Christmas morning and running down the hall to claim your presents under that big ol' green pine. Sounds fun, right? Here's everything you need to know to participate!

By signing up, you agree to abide by these rules. If a rule is broken, the participant will be disqualified and will be barred from participating in any future events.

1. All entrants must be able to draw a FULLY CUSTOM pose.
2. You are not permitted to tell anybody who was chosen for you to draw (Unless you need help from another artist). It's for you and me to know only!
3. Be thankful and courteous for the pose you receive. Everybody puts time and effort into what they create, and deserve your thanks!
4. Please PLEASE let me know if you think your pose will not be submitted until after the deadline so I can inform them and avoid any suspicions of being left out.

These Deadlines are extremely strict, and will be extended only under special circumstances.

All information for Sign-Up must be posted here by Saturday, December 10th. You will receive the name the day after, Sunday, December 11th. All poses will be due on Saturday, December 24th. However, an extension to December 31st may be applied if you are truly struggling.

Now that we got all that out of the way, the only thing left to do is fill out this form and join the fun!

Count me in for the Secret Santa 2011 Pose Swap Event!

Announcing New Gifts for Wolfhome Members!

For those of you that love to give to your fellow Wolfhome members, there are new gifts available this holiday season. We would like to thank Nanook for the new gifts she has donated to the site! Gifts can be found and sent via Sniffs. This is a great way to congratulate, cheer someone up, or just to be friendly. Gifts can be sent anonymously as well. Just in time for Christmas!


Just in time for Christmas!

It looks like the pathway to the North Pole is back! Some of you have already heard about this "secret" part of Wolfhome, but in case you haven't, here is what you do... First, go to the Frozen Tundra and then look around way up north. If you're careful, you will find a sign pointing to the North Pole! Click on that sign twice and then be ready for "Christmas on Wolfhome".

But that's not all! After playing in the snow for a bit and admiring Santa's snowwolf, be sure to knock on the door, visit Santa's house, and rock around the Christmas tree. Big thanks to Redfoxx for his rooms and inspiration!
