When you join the Gorillatank community you're embarking on an adventure. Your adventure will lead you on a path that earns you seeds and increase your status within the community.
Here's how it works:
You will start as a Lemur, progressing to a baboon, orangutan, chimpanzee and finally Gorilla which will give you as much as 3 times more voting power than a Lemur when it comes to selecting edited designs; and as much as £ 5.00 shopping credit for each of your friend's purchase.

Why increase your status?
Status - or total seeds - determines your benefits in the GT community. These benefits include discounts on merchandise plus voting power on design submissions. Your status helps show your standing or credibility within the community when posting comments or voting on designs without having to disclose your personal information.

Best of all – the higher your status – the more seeds you earn for each action. Check out the table below.
Participate for discount
The more you participate, the more you earn. Every time you make a purchase at standard rate, you'll earn seeds. You'll also earn seeds for referring active friends to the GT community, submitting your new T-shirt picture - and even getting a year older – is your birthday approaching? Watch those points add up! Further, you don't even need to buy to receive seeds, being an active members in the blog area or giving your opinion will earn you seeds.
