SEAF Art Submission Update

Thanks for your patience with us. We are working hard on the artist portal so all you amazing artists can send in your submissions. The goal is by dinner time tomorrow (6pm Sunday 2/10) you will all be able to start uploading your art.

The only real change to the website is a fairly big one, our credit card processor. If you will all remember, PayPal froze our account because of our "adult" nature. Turns out being an art organization did not protect us from their policies. We got all our money back and ended out relationship with them. Now, we have a new system that is working out nicely in the testing process and by tomorrow night, we should be ready to go.

There will still be the early bird special going until Feb. 24th that we did last year. That will save you $10 off the $30 submission fee.

Another change we are working on is allowing artists to pay for additional submissions. That means you could pay a second $30 fee to upload another 5 entries for consideration. Now, don't get too excited. This is a much bigger project than switching out the payment system and that one is pretty big! This may not be ready by the end of the 10th. I will keep you updated.

Thanks for your patience and I am excited to see everyone's art this year!
