I wanted to try something new, and make a break from the idea of on ly a major group, ie. acid, ice, and union, could have talented artists . I believe that anyone who is willing to put time and detication into t heir artwork, deserves to have thier work spread, and seen, regardless of  the group name. There are many artists out there that feel the competi tion of the art scene has been taken out of hand, and the fun of produc ing, and releasing art through a group has disapeared becuase of it.  Well instead of only thinking this to myself, ive decided to take it a  step further, risking ridicule for the rest of the year , i've dec ided to start up a new group of artists, with a new idea. I plan on ma king a group, with a few changes, and twists, to bring back the fun,  and laid back atmosphere of joining a group in the first place. Group n ame: after talking it over with a few other people, we have come to  like the name 'bleach', something i'm sure most of you are not suprise d at if you know me at all . We've also decided to give the packs   the title of, 'aneurysm's'...why? i don't....know. Secondly, the group will have no distrobution sites, i feel they are relativly pointless, since any board that recieves a 'ble ach' pack, could carry our art, the tag 'bleach dist site' holds  no purpose to the group in any way. They only add more headaches, and c uase competition between sysop's to be a distrobution site for our group , so that they're boards can gain better reputations in the scene. Howe ver, we will be accpeting one-two boards in each ac, that is a l ocal connection for our artists to drop their work off, so that we  can keep things a little more organized. The only way to become one of t hese 'gathering sites', is to be a user on my board, so that every m onth you can take the art that has been left on your board, and sen d it over to me. This makes things alot easier, and cuts out phone tag e very month with the people who would like to release in the pack. Third, and most importantly to the change this group will take on, there will be no founders, or members. I know  this sounds unreasonable, but here is how it will work: I am basically  the closest to postion of founder this group will get, without hol ding any of the 'oppurtunities' a normal founder would have. The group  will be ran equally between the members and opinions and ideas by the art ists will be taken into mind to make the group better. My job will b e to round up all the art recieved every month, zip it up, and  send it out. Since there will be no real members in the group, the posi tion of founder is useless, and only creates 'power' in the group. There  will be no members, if you have a peice of art that you would lik e to release, but you don't want to release it with your current group , or have no group at all, you simply add the name 'bleach' to the ansi,  send it to me, and i put it in the pack. Thats it! You never have to  say, 'I'm joining', or 'I'm quitting', its a free choice, no questions as ked. Every month the pack will contain an information file, which will  list every artist that contributed to that pack. The standards for relea sing with us will be very small. You will most likely get your art rele ased in the pack if you send it to me, everytime! If you would lik e to only release one ansi with us the whole time your in the scene, t hats your choice, there will be no pressure on you to release every mo nth. There is one small catch though to these rules, you can only rel ease art with 'bleach' if you are an artist in any of the following ac's:  619 ,714, and 909. The only way to submit to 'bleach' outside of t hese limits is to be 'voted' in by both ld! and dweizel. Thats about  it, if you have ANY questions about this at all i can be reached at ei ther of the boards listed at the end of this nfo file. This is a relet ivly new concept as far as i know so im not sure how this idea will work  out, we can see how it goes after the first release. One last note, an yone who releases at least one ansi with us, can feel free to add 'bleach ' to thier sig! Fourth, the packs will be released on the third of each month, promptly, so in order to make the deadline, you have to submit by   the first of every month, the packs will not be held back. Thats basically about it, all the details should be listed, but if you have ANY questions at all, please call my board. Below are the  two gathering sites we have affiliated so far, both are here in 619,  San Diego, but i will be looking for users on my board to hold some posi tions in other ac's, so that the group becomes wide spread. Any help  with making this a successful group will be greatly appriciated. An in tro- duction type pack will be released on February 1st, but the premier  pack will be released on March 1st. We will take art donations starting  any- time before then. -lord jazz (bleach)  [?7hÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ( b l e a c h ) a r t i s t   d r o p - o f f s i t e s ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ board name.board number.sysop.notes.
