Hello Prospective 2011 Big Bangers!
We have big news! Listen close and get ready, guys because it's HUGE!
We're Back!
We're nearly ready to kick off the 2011 Big Bang season! But, before we do, we've got some big changes to announce! Probably the biggest change (and the one you'll be most interested in, I'm sure) to The Twilight Big Bang will be the wider range of media accepted during the course of the big bang.
We've decided to do this because fandom is about more than just fanfiction and fanart, we wanted to give everyone an opportunity to participate even if they can't write fanfiction or draw fanfiction. We're opening the Big Bang to a wide array of graphics (banners, icons, headers, manips, whatever you can think of), fanvids, fanmixes, and just about whatever else you can think of! This season we're trying something new with the entries: Whatever you can think of, do it!!
As I've mentioned before, the expansion of media we're accepting is not the only change we're implanting this season. I will outline the rest of the changes and explain them more fully once these changes are made! The other changes are as follows; the rules, FAQs, sign-ups, word count minimum and check-ins. Please keep in mind that more changes could take place, but there will be notification of these changes before or as they're taking place.
