Any volunteers?

Sep 30, 2009 10:14

So many things to post about - yesterday's Annex story, the flooding we experienced here in Georgia last week, nattering about writing - and no time to do it in! I have Richard III and Henry IV breathing down my neck this week and it's a struggle to prevent Shakespeare's plays from eating me!

I would like to bring your attention to something near and dear to me, though, so I hope you'll forgive me if I just crosspost something whole-hog from the Interstitial Arts Foundation's site:

The Interfictions 2 Auction, sponsored by the Interstitial Arts Foundation, is well underway, with over forty artists committed to creating original pieces of art based on the Interfictions anthology series of original interstitial writing. We’re seeking a few more volunteers to help with the web aspect of the auction.

Web assistants will help the web manager with getting each of the items listed on our WordPress-driven auction site throughout October, November, and December 2009.

Do you have:

1. Basic HTML and/or CSS skills. Even if your main experience is just creating blog posts, you know enough to help with this aspect. More advanced web designers/editors are welcome as well.
2. Basic to Intermediate photo editing skills. We’re very much in need of people who can color-correct and polish the photos so items look their best. We can also use folks who can help with the tedious task of cropping/resizing all of the photos so they fit into the auction template.

We’re hoping to get enough volunteers that no one person will have to spend more than a few hours a week on their tasks. And if you can only give us time for a week or two, we’d still love to have your help! Volunteers can work from anywhere in the world as long as you have email and can access Flickr and iafauctions.com.

If you’re interested in volunteering, please contact iafauctions at gmaildot COM by email (and cc. us at info at interstitialarts dot ORG) and let us know what your skills are and what level.
