This is a club by Naruto fans, for Naruto fans, who want a different kind of club to join. Welcome, and enjoy your stay.

VILLAGE MESSAGE BOARD

2/08/07 Hi everyone! This is *NA0K0. I think I'm the newest member of the admin team, just recruited by Ekage. ^____^

Please be patient, while I get into the swing of things here. I'm still not sure what day the contest deadline has been moved to, but one of us will let you know once we decide on a new date. In the meantime, I noticed there are a lot of submissions backed up. I'm going to start trying to go through those soon. If you have sent submissions, please be patient for a little longer. You haven't been forgotten!

And we have one new team! Please welcome Team 39!


Team 39

Thank you, everyone! I look forward to helping out here. C:

TO JOIN
You must like (okay, you can love too ) the anime/manga Naruto. No super dub haters please.
1. Send a note to this club titled 'JOIN'
2. in that note, please give us a reason why you'd like to join. I'm not asking for a paragraph or an essay! You can just say something little.
3. Hit send and we should soon get it! We'll add you when two other members join around the same time as you do. Then, the three of you will become a ninja team of Bijutsugakure!
(if you need more info before you join please go here:[link] )


TO SUBMIT PICS
All you have to do is send a note titled 'SUBMIT' and we'll put up the pic as one of our deviations! But, you have to be a member. If you aren't, send us a link and we'll add it to our favorites! Also, due to the laziness of the ANBU Captain, you are limited to three deviations per submission, and one submission a day. If you sent in one deviation in a submission earlier in the day, you must wait until the next day to submit something else. It just makes things complicated, y'know?

THE ADMINS
The Ekage of the Village Hidden in the Art, she strives to make sure everyone is safe and having fun. She's loud and very adventurous, taking on this village at a young age. Ekage wishes for everyone to join and have fun.
The Head Jounin of the Village, she's quite humorous and gentle in her ways. She's in between tough and too laid back, making the perfect admin. She wishes for everyone to get to know their team and help each other out!
The ANBU Captain of the Village, she's the youngest on the team.She's a little less crazy than the others. She makes sure the other two dont slack off and wishes everyone to behave appropriately in the club.
A stand in for *FullMetalNinja when she decides she wants to go to disney world instead of updating the contest. (;3) [as of December 22]

Why ~Hidden-in-the-Art?
Because of our love for Naruto and the world Masashi Kishimoto has created
Because we know of many Naruto clubs, but none quite like this one
Because there is a village of sound, so there must be one for art
because we know of people who would love to meet others obsessed with the same things and we wanted to created a fun community for everyone to enjoy.

Q&A

What happens after I join?
Once you become a member, you get put into a three man team with ones who just recently joined as well. With that team, you can enter contests and submit things that raise you and your team's level. Here are the stats:
One member wins a contest= the team moves up a step.
The team submits 6 submissions, 4 fanfiction, 3 funny movies or 5 good Naruto sites= the team moves up a step.
You can only submit 3 or less things at a time, so we dont go crazy.
Stats and things will continue to be added as we get more members and things.
What's a 'Step'?
Steps are when you move up in rank and get better and better in the Ninja world. The steps are as follows:
Start: Academy
1st Step: Graduate Academy
2nd Step: Move to Chuunin exams
3rd Step: Pass Chuunin exams
4th Step: Move to Jounin test
5th Step: Pass Jounin test
From here, your team may go three different ways.
6th Step: Join the ANBU, join the Hunter Nins/Jounin or become Missing-Nins. Your choice.Whichever one you choose will not affect the way the club sees you. And you can still do everything that everyone else can. Once your team reaches that spot, you can request a congradulatory gift from one of the Admins.
What kind of Contests will you be having?
Glad you asked. Our contests will be like no other. As you probably know, many of the clubs you go to will have contests according to certain happenings that time of year. What we would like to do is have contests completely irrelevant to time of year. Our ideas will be random and spontaneous, mostly for the enjoyment of everyone. The ideas will come from all different genres, from Parody to Horror, Sci-Fi to Romance. We hope that you will enjoy these contests and to not be afraid to enter them.
Are there limitations on what we submit to the club?
It depends on what you mean. For fanfictions, music videos,submissions and the like, they are allowed to be yaoi, yuri, het., AU, OOC and such. We try to be as open-ended as possible, making sure every preference is accepted.That is, as long as it follows the rules of DA. They also dont have to be the Naruto characters. Depending on the contest, many will allow original characters. We appreciate the one loves Naruto so much that they create their own character as a homage to the anime/manga itself. We'd like to embrace that every chance we get.
What if we only watch the dubbed Naruto? Can we still join/participate?
Of course. My admins and I do keep track of the dub, so we shall put spoiler warnings on things that might be far ahead of the Cartoon Network version. And dont worry, you shall be treated the same way as one who watches/reads it subbed. There will be no discriminating here.
What if one of my team members are lazy and doesn't do anything at all?
Well, I certainly hope someone wouldn't join just to sit there. This is quite an active club. My admins and I shall be sure to check at least once everyday, and there's three of us, so nothing should be lagging. But, if one of your teammates hasn't done much, then please note the club with the header 'TEAMMATE' and We, together shall handle it from there.

If there is anything else you have a question about or would like to know more about, please send a note to this club with the header, 'QUESTION' and I shall help you as best I can.
Here for the people,
The Ekage, ~FullMetalNinja

If you'd like to affiliate with us, just send us a note titled "Affi" and we'll add you as soon as we get it!
