It's that time of year! We are back with Anonymous Compliments! 
For those who don't know or need a small refresher... Anonymous Compliments is an event that was started by MESSI just about nine years ago with the staff keeping it going. This is our way of celebrating Valentine's day as a group. We do this by writing anonymous compliments for each other that will usually then be shared on or around Valentine's Day.
Just like the last few times, to participate we are going to have you guys put the compliments on the cards for each other and then send them in. This can easily be done on Photoshop, GIMP - or even Paint!
This year, courtesy of Claire, we are also including a mini tutorial on how to use Lunapic via mobile to complete this task!
If you continue to experience difficulties, even with the options provided, please reach out to me to discuss receiving additional assistance.
You will find the banner options (made by Mia) for the compliments at the end of this post.
There's no sign up list - anyone and everyone can send in compliments to my account, Professor Cyndi Kingsley. If you have any for me and don't want me to see them before Valentine's Day, you can send them to another site staff member. You have until February 12th to send any and all compliments in!
In order for us to get the posts up as close to Valentine's day as we can, we will only be accepting compliments until February 12th. This is a firm deadline.
Feel free to start sending your compliments in now, and, Happy Valentines Day!

1. Board Rules apply to all compliments.
2. Please PM compliments to my main account(Professor Cyndi Kingsley). Any compliments for me can be sent to another site staff member if you'd like your compliment to remain anonymous to me.
3. Multiple compliments may be submitted. In fact, we encourage it! All I ask is that you keep the compliments that you send in to one PM topic, replying as many times as you want to in that one topic. This will help keep my PM box from exploding. 
4. Please ensure that the compliment does fit on the banner provided, otherwise it cannot be sent.
5. You must use the banner(s) provided for sending in these compliments without making any changes apart from adding in the compliment.
6. If a member receives a large amount of compliments or if a member does not send any compliments in but receives compliments, the compliments will be sent via PM. All compliments will be delivered in one manner or other before the end of February.
To receive compliments in this topic, you must submit at least one compliment for another site member.
