Posting Format

[ice_of_dreams]

As time grows near for your submissions please take note of the format of the masterposts here in the community for the submissions. Please keep the size of the sample banner small so that it flows with the layout of the community. Thank you.

For those who will have the main collections in other sites here are a few guidelines

your own livejournal
please remember to say in ff.n that you're doing it for maiko big bang and link back in the banked flame livejournal page.

archive of our own

There's an official archive of our own collection here, if you're posting in archive of our own. Please include in the tags at archive of our own "maiko big bang".

fanfiction.net
please remember to say in ff.n that you're doing it for maiko big bang and link back in the banked flame livejournal page. ff.n doesn't allow linking out so you'll have to spell it out :( which I'm sure you all guys hate to do: just say done for maiko big bang in: "banked-flame slash livejournal. com, please check the other fics out when they come out" or some permutation so everyone sees it.

Please remember to pimp your artist/author too, and always refer your readers back to the banked flame site. Thanks and happy posting!

Sample master post for those who usually don't use master posts.

For the fiction here's the suggested formatting : (we're using one of my fics as a sample here)

And we're pretending that this is a sample of the banner/sample fan art that's going to be in place which will link to the fanartist page:




remember! keep the image within the bounds of the posting area (it shouldn't exceed the size of this table, the width of the banner up there is 300, so you could probably do it up to 500, just experiment.

the HTML for the banner is:

I'll put the tags in after a while so that they'll be uniform, so keep those blank for now. And please remember to accept membership so that you have posting access.

I'm so excited :)
