First off, what is a Jade Pebble?
Jade Pebbles (or "JP") are small smooth bits of jade found in the rivers of Avo and commonly collected by Krin. However for players like you, they're like EXP points you earn for your artworks!
Jade Pebbles are never spent when you use them to unlock an Upgrade or Reward, and you can earn them just for making PoA related artworks!
JP Rules:
JP can only be counted on Peaks of Avo related art. While Cerifikn and PoA exist in the same universe, Cerifikn characters do not earn JP- and PoA characters do not earn Cerifikn Currency.
You cannot count more than 100 JP per drawn artwork. Writing may exceed this limit.
You must write your JP count in the description of your post.
A JP Count will usually look like this:
[JP Earned]/[Total JP] or as an example- 3/24 JP
with your JP tracker linked below it. "JP Earned" means "JP Earned for that specific submission" while "Total JP" means "Total JP Earned for all PoA artworks including this submission"
You must use THIS linked tracker to count your JP. To make a tracker means you'll have to make a Copy of the document by going to File > Make a Copy > Replace the "Copy of [Username]" part of the title to your Username, and you've made a tracker! Feel free to change colors, fonts, etc- Just please don't mess with the tracker's code or layout.
You must link your Tracker in every Deviation AND link every PoA related Deviation in your Tracker in order to count JP for it.
If you Delete a Deviation you must also delete that deviation from your Tracker and remove any/all earned JP you had gotten from the now deleted artwork.
You cannot count JP for repeated or copy and pasted artworks, like color upgrade applications. Only the first hand drawn or hand written version can be counted for JP.
