~Thankyou to Matthew of Pokemon Elite 2000 Forum for the banner​

Remember
This December,
That love weighs more than gold!
~Josephine Dodge Daskam Bacon

Like the spirit of December, we too encourage the ideas of cooperation. This festival does not emphasize violence or hated, but peace and sportsmanship. So artists, we ask you to take up your brushes and demonstrate your skill not for just your section or your forum, but for the world to see! You are all masters, all geniuses, all members of the same race. In your hands you hold the ability to perform miracles. In this time of wonder, miracles determine the course of humanity. So, we ask you, are you ready?
