Helpful Hints for Applicants: {follow our rules & guidelines please!}
You have 48 hours from when you're approved to post your app.
Use current members' applications for inspiration. They were accepted for a reason!
Please save a draft of your application. It is not the job of the moderators to send your application back if it was rejected for any reason. (ie: messed up HTML)
Even if you think you'll be rejected, please respond to your sways. If you get an "open" sway (when a member asks you to sway them, but doesn't specifically tell you how to sway them), this is your opportunity to show them/us your creative, imaginative, and/or resourceful side. Think of it positively - many "no" votes have changed because of a response to someone else's sway vote!
Please don't edit or delete your application or you will be banned.
The subject line for your application should be "The best things in life..."and the LJ-cut text should read "...are [applicants choice]." There is no wrong answer. Be creative! Let us have an immediate look into your personality.
Please do not comment on any posts within the community with the exception of those pertaining to applications. To do so will result in a warning if you accepted.
Your application is to be tagged, application.
To complete the application, please copy the box below in its entirety and paste it into a new journal post. Then complete the application, being careful to not alter the html in any way. Please follow the directions in the application carefully: it may not be difficult, but you'd be surprised at how many people screw it up. (Yes, that irritates us and we'll be sure to comment on it!)
