Art Exchange Communities

This is shameless advertising =D I'm pretty big into LiveJournal and am involved with some wonderful communities for art exchanges. An art exchange is a Secret Santa-styled system where you apply for a round (which usually lasts a month) and are given someone to draw for and someone else is assigned to draw you. The goal is basically to challenge you to draw whoever you're chosen to that month and you receive some art in return, which is awesome. These are LiveJournal-based communities, so you'll have to sign up for a journal which is free) in order to participate. They're really fun, in my opinion, so I thought I'd plug a few here for anyone who wants to get in on the action:

The Horror Exchange is a brand new group that I just created because I wanted to draw/receive some horror-based art! XD Unlike some other groups, there's little restrictions on the kind of character you can submit: http://community.livejournal.com/horrorexchange/profile

Other groups currently open for sign up:
The Reptile Exchange, for drawing feral and anthro reptiles. In dire need of some participation! - http://community.livejournal.com/reptile_xchange/profile

The Gryphon Exchange, if you like drawing Gryphons - http://community.livejournal.com/gryphon_xchange/profile
The Hybrid Exchange, for strange, hybrided creatures - http://community.livejournal.com/hybridexchange2/profile
The Lapine Exchange, for bunnies. Everyone loves bunnies - http://community.livejournal.com/lapinexchange/profile
The Ungulate Exchange, for any creature with hooves - http://community.livejournal.com/ungulatexchange/profile
The Wolf Exchange, for chinchillas. Yeah, it's for wolves <!--s51-->:3<!--/s51--> - http://community.livejournal.com/wolfxchange/profile

What do you do with the artwork? Do you borrow it for your website, etc?

I'm certain you could. However, the appeal is typically that artists who create characters often love to see their characters drawn by others. It's kinda like when you commission a picture just for you to look at. I guess it doesn't make too much sense for non-artists XD

However, for the 100x100 exchange, which I didn't list here, you draw icons for someone else to use on LJ and forums and such: http://community.livejournal.com/100x100xchnge/profile

Hmm...the only thing I've ever heard of was DeviantArt.com and I barely update that so I don't think I'll be joining any others anytime soon. I wish I could get my art mojo back in gear!
