| Is there any particular website you want us to use to send the image gift? Like I was going to use deviantart or mediafire is that okay? |

| It's annoying I have to recommend a manga despite the person I've got signing up for both anime and manga. I could make tons of great recommendations for anime because I've watched a lot and so has that person, and I can think of few titles that would definitely be up to their taste, but no, I'm forced to come up with a manga recommendation, urgh it's extremely stupid |

| @Saky_Kuso: Make sure your username isn't in the URL or the surprise will be spoiled. Imgur works well. @Gloom: I answered this in a previous post and don't have time to search for it. Please check my earlier posts (page 2-3 iirc). @Imaishi: Or, in the Christmas spirit, you could rec a manga--and then add some bonus anime recommendations. No one says you can't do both. @johnnybro66: Click 'reply'. |
| @johnnybro66 Ahhh sorry, 20% awake response. Glad you figured it out :) |

I feel the same. I've read very little manga, and so has my person. While we both watched over 500 anime. I'm sure I could make a much better recommendation in anime, but well, shit happens. I guess I will try to make a manga one, beh. I wish it was stated earlier, not everyone is into both. |

| If the person has completely different taste from you, what do you do? I can't seem to really find anything to recommend. Just throw a Studio Ghibli? |

ExaltedSenpai said: If the person has completely different taste from you, what do you do? I can't seem to really find anything to recommend. Just throw a Studio Ghibli? Maybe recommend something that you think he/she will enjoy, although you just think it was "kinda meh". Or better yet, recommend him/her a show of his/her popular/preferred genre, with elements of your favorites genres (i.e. action + ecchi = kill la kill) |
 shit!! he got me! that fucking Poly boomed me! he's so good! (x4) |
johnnybro66 said: you mean embedding the image? @Kineta I got it already, I just uploaded it to imgur. I mean there is no way to attach the picture in the message itself. use: [img]--put image link here--[/img] but apparently you figured it out so yeah. |
 set by secret santa ; thank you! ily ♥️ |
Sadija said: hi, is it normal to have to people? You asked for both Manga and Anime recommendations, which means you'll also have to recommend 2 times. |

| Sent my elf the images a couple of days ago, no word but I know how santa-senpai over works those poor elfs *staaaaaare* so I get it if they don't have time to respond, just hope everything was ok. I was going to ask, do you have a side sign up list of ppl willing to help on last minute gifts if some people don't do their secret santa gift? I signed up for the image secret santa and if you have some members missing out because their secret santa was slack & just didn't do their gift I could help create some quick gifts, it won't be fancy but if their expectation is only beginner level I can help. PM me any names and their details. If they don't want anything flash I could maybe help half a dozen people (I'm on holidays in the next couple of days). So yeah just putting it out there. It'll be past the 20th cut off date but if you find yourself with some missing out I'm here to help. I didn't sign up for this one but if there are people missing out on manga recommendations I could do a handful of those too if anyone is missing out. |
 Now, Titania, shall we bet? If those two would get along. Rather than that, it would be better to bet on how many are made. |
| Is this the form for the rewrite Secret Santa? because I don't know how I signed up for this one but somehow it signed me up for the other one instead. |
| |
| So I've received a Manga REC to do but I remember that I did put both for my entry ( https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1574422&show=250#post255 ) Worried I'll receive a Manga rec, but someone will be without an Anime rec. |
| @Pyrii: You wrote "Both, though manga preferred" so we assumed you didn't understand the difference between "both" and "either", and only put you down for a single recommendation. @Saky_Kuso: The MAL Rewrite Secret Santa is run through the club, not the main forum. @nosebleeder: Thank you for the offer! We'll let you know if we need your help. @7jaws7, @Blue-Lightning: If you don't hear from us, then your gift is fine. We don't really have time to reply to every Santa saying we received their PM. @Zel_Ezl: You can make more if you like. The gifts are a minimum requirement. @ExaltedSenpai: You can also message your Elf, asking for advice. When the match was checked, the elf should have seen something in your list fitting your user's requirements. @silverwalls @Imaishi: As I wrote earlier in the thread, I think, feel free to add an anime recommendation to your gift if you feel more confident in that. No one said you can't recommend both if you feel so inclined. I personally generally rec two series every year, since I think it's nice to have options. And if you feel really unsure about your manga rec, you can msg your elf for advice and/or ask us to supplement your gift with a manga rec of our own. Usually we try to match people who have read a lot of manga with users asking for manga, but 25 manga is actually a lot for our sign ups :( I have two recipients and both are manga recommendations since I have a decent sized list. You could also recommend an anime-manga pair where you may have seen the anime but not read the manga adaptation it's based on. There actually is no rule that you have to have seen/read the anime/manga you're recommending. |
| @Saky_Kuso: The MAL Rewrite Secret Santa is run through the club, not the main forum. MAy I ask if I'm still signed up for this one? I believe I am but somehow I got a message saying that I couldn't the part and I got really confused if I signed up for both or accidentally signed up for the wrong one. I'm sorry for the trouble... |
| |
| @Saky_Kuso: Judging from our Master sheet, you signed up for the Image event and have already submitted your gift. |

I'm stuck with "I've read it but it was mediocre" category. I've just noticed that we still have about 24 hours to hand it all in, which is helpful as I'm really unwell atm. I have stuff I'm going to recommend I just need to write them up. I for some reason thought it was tonight. |

| Question: I've just received a warning message saying that I have to send my gift. But I've already done that 2-3 days ago. So now, should I send the gift again to the Elf just to make sure? Also, do I have to reply to the first message or to the warning message or should I send a separate message to the Elf with the gift?? If it's the last one than I have to include the persons' name the gift is for, right? |

If it's the last one than I have to include the persons' name the gift is for, right? No harm done in sending another message. What I did was send a separate message with my giftee's username on it, just in case. By the way, if we made more than one image, do we send it to the elf or wait until after the Santas were revealed to PM it to the recipient? |
