Round One: Mods' Honorary Mentions

[hc_bingo_mod]

We had great pleasure looking through all the amazing fills posted to the community (and plan to continue enjoying ourselves during the amnesty round). We tried to pick out several fills that caught our attention in the Round One and share them with you.

I had to go make squeaky noises for a bit. Eee!

For wallpaper (!!!) I'm good with anything that features Gabe Saporta or Travis McCoy or William Beckett (or various combinations of same, except Gabe/William) of bandom fame.

[egelantier]

congratulations! thank you for playing with us, we hope you'll keep doing that :)

Graphics lady here! Congratulations! Two questions 1) what size wallpaper do you need, and 2) would you like any sort of text-y or lyric-y thing on them or textless spiffiness? Oh! And if there's sort of, like, any era, I guess, of the dudes you'd like (like with Billiam, there's pretty-haired Billiam and Dandy Billiam and Greaser Billiam and ALL OF THE BILLIAMS or w/e), let me know!

[morganya]

Hmm. My current desktop is 1280 x 1024 - does that work? I'm partial to textless over text, I like all of the Wiliams and pretty much all of the Gabes, but I have a fondness for spruced-up solo artist Travie. Thank you!

[chryssalys]

Oh, wow. I'm kind of with morganya, actually. Eee!

If only there were Vorkosigan Saga images out there... Maybe there are, actually. I'm brand new in the fandom and this was my first fic in it. But if there are, I haven't found anything yet.

How about The Sentinel (Jim/Blair) or Torchwood (Jack/Ianto)?

And thank you. I feel truly honored. There are some amazing stories on the comm.

[egelantier]

congratulatons! thank you for writing, it was a pleasure. play with us again!

Graphics lady here! Congratulations! Two questions 1) what size wallpaper do you need, and 2) would you like any sort of text-y or lyric-y thing on them or textless spiffiness? And, since spoiler I will probably end up making you a Torchwood wallpaper, is there any specific Jack/Ianto-y moment you'd like in particular or anything like that?

[chryssalys]

Size of wallpaper? They come in different sizes? (In case that wasn't clear enough, I pretty much know how to turn on my laptop and play. I still have tingles at the thought of html.) How would I go about finding something like that out?

Textless spiffiness works. :)

Specific moment - hmmm. Nope. Nothing from the season-that-does-not-exist, though. I would prefer *not* to have the kiss from "To The Last Man", though. Gorgeous as it is. Maybe something from "Fragments"?

Thanks! *anticipates*

[meridian_rose]

I am amazed and gratified beyond words for a mod mention! Flummoxed is a good word; I'm flummoxed :)
A wallpaper would be awesome! I just got a widescreen monitor (resolution 1360x786 - random, I know) so none of my old wallpapers fit; this is timely and appreciated.
Subject? From my fills, The Mummy of course [Imohtep, Anuk-su-Namun, Rick]! Or V (2009) [Erica & Hobbes are favourite characters), or Firefly [Mal & River are favourites here]. Or beyond my fills Legend of the Seeker is a favourite fandom [Darken Rahl & Cara in particular]. If none of these are good for you, I also love nature scenes of beaches/oceans, lakes, the full moon.
I honestly don't mind what you pick which is why I'm giving so many options - the recognition alone is fantastic, a wallpaper is gravy!

[cool_rain_kiss]

Graphics lady here! Congratulations! Thanks for giving lots of options. :D I will probably end up going with a Firefly wallpaper if that's cool (I'm cheating since that's the one I'm familiar with, haha), but would you like spiffy text or textless spiffiness? And do you have any favorite episodes/moments that you'd in particular like wallpaper'd?

[meridian_rose]

Textless is fine, but if you think a quote will finish off nicely what you make, go for it. Favourite episodes are "Out Of Gas", "Shindig", "Trash"; if there's Mal on there, I'm happy though :)

[egelantier]

congratulations! thanks for playing with us, and we really hope to see you in the next round.

[prettykitty_aya]

I think I may have squealed out loud when I saw this! Thank you so much :D I had so much fun participating in this round and can't wait for the next one.

As far as a wallpaper goes, I'd totally be down for some Sean Van Vleet and/or Empires in general and some lyrics? give a part of you for a part of me or something? I think my monitor resolution is 1024 x 768? I know it's a pretty standard one.

[egelantier]

congratulations! thank you for playing with us, do it again in the next round :)

[cool_rain_kiss]

Graphics lady here! Congratulations! SVV and Empires shenanigans can be done! If you have any specific pics you'd like me to use, feel free to upload those. :D

[prettykitty_aya]

*laughs hysterically* I think I can do that, just give me a day or so to wander around my archive. >_>

[arsenicjade]

*sigh* Thanks LJ for not posting my awesome squee. Let me try to recreate.

Seriously, seriously, you have no idea how special this is to me. It feels stupid to type it, but for real, I just--there are no words.

Um, wallpaper, wallpaper. I guess hurt!Neal would be kind of appropriate? Having Peter and El somewhere in there would be optimal, but not necessary.

*hugs you people foreeeeeever*

[arsenicjade]

And then LJ DID post my squee, but it seemed stupid to have both, so I deleted it. *rolls eyes*

[egelantier]

congratulations, bb. thank you for playing with us ♥

[arsenicjade]

so. biased.
