And away we go...
Wow, we are over 50 members already, you guys rock!
We hope everyone is hard at work on their bingos, and since tomorrow (Aug 31st) is the first day you can begin posting your bingos, we thought it would be a good time to remind everyone of a few things.
First off, we are still giving out cards and participants can continue to sign up until 11:59p PST on Sept. 12th.
Please feel free to use one of the banners available in the faq to pimp us in your own journal or anywhere else you think people might be interested (with permission of the applicable journals/comms of course.)
Next up, please remember that in order to post, you need to join the community as only members are allowed to post.
As far as posting goes, a few things to keep in mind:
Each fill in your bingo must meet the minimum requirements as set out in the rules - fic must be at least 500 words long, art must be a minimum of 300x200 pixels, or there must be at least 10 icons for each fill. You can mix fic, art and icons in one bingo, but each individual fill must meet the minimum requirements.
All fills must be in open posts. They can not be in locked/private entries/sites.
Fills should be posted to your own journal/website/AO3/community, not to the angst_bingo community.
Information on how to post a bingo and the correct format for posting can be found in the posting template.
Incorrectly posted bingos will not be accepted by the mods and will NOT be counted until the correct posting template is used.
If you have any questions about posting your bingo, please contact us prior to posting.
You may leave a question to this post or to the the faq, or you can PM either (or both) havenward or raggedy_edge for questions as well. We are more than happy to help out, and one or the other of us is generally available. That being said, please remember that there are just the two of us running this thing, so if we don't get back to you right away, please be patient and know that one of us will just as soon as possible.
So there you go, we can't wait to see what you guys come up with! Good luck!
