Some banners with which to pimp the com
Feb. 10th, 2013 12:40 pm










If you have Photoshop, you can also easily make your own! I've uploaded the bases for my mutilated M&B covers here. Just download and put the photo of your choice on the bottom layer (I added more yellow and more red in Image>Variations, but you don't have to). And/or you can send me a link to a picture and I'm very happy to mock up whatever.
Please do pimp the com, if you can. Particularly in places (Tumblr and Twitter) or fandoms that I'm not active on/in. I want to bring in as many people as possible for only thus will as much exciting, different and excellent stuff be produced as is possible.
P.S. There are plenty more in the comments!

These are probably quite a bit less useful, but I couldn't quite stop myself:
(I was also having issues with having to reset my photo-editing software again, so some of the images aren't that great. I'll do some more later, as I said.)
ETA: also the "unconventional" bit is genius, because it doesn't matter how unromantic/grumpy the photo is (or not). Ha.

Date: 2013-02-10 02:07 pm (UTC)also the jeeves and wooster one is (and both S&S ones - i did think perhaps i should include threesomes - but it'd be difficult to do with the M&B format) particularly amazing - it fits very well in a silly way.
are you interested in throwing these around the relevant coms or should i do something modly with myself?
More!

And in the category of I couldn't resist/was having too much fun:
(Although to be fair, the second one will enable to me to pimp at unkindestslash, which might be the tiniest comm ever, but if anyone's there, they have the right sense of humour to appreciate this challenge. Plus, appropriate, because Blake and Avon are just Cassius and Brutus in Space, 'tis true.)
In answer to your question, I wasn't planning to pimp outside my journal, really, (sorry?) but I might use these to do Press Gang and Julius Caesar comms, which are virtually deserted and outside your ken, I think. ;-)

Date: 2013-02-10 08:11 pm (UTC)Could not resist Brig/Liz M&B cover. Every screencap of them in Spearhead looks like something from a dodgy photo comic.
Also, I made one more and have attempted to pimp over at Spooky_doings (see if the mods let it through)

Date: 2013-02-12 05:39 pm (UTC)And as for my LJ...!! :lol: (I have the best flist.)
(I might try and still mention it on the press gang one. M&B Spike/Lynda would be something to behold. Especially if it in anyway involved Colin at any point.)

Date: 2013-02-10 04:38 pm (UTC)I was going to comment somewhere to say this thing was genuinely happening, but clearly there was no need.

Date: 2013-02-10 04:45 pm (UTC)I AM RESISTING signing up-- trying to resist.... but found prompts that might be fun for Tony and Steve....nnnnnnooooo....resist...

Date: 2013-02-10 05:16 pm (UTC)also - the sign ups will never end! which means you'll never be free. so, you know, you can sign up whenever/if you break. and if you do - that'd be awesome.

Then I got onto variations on a theme:

Date: 2013-02-11 10:16 pm (UTC)thanks for the banners, and i love the mini-fic! there. it works really well as an interpretation of the prompt and as a fic in its own right, which is surely the best kind. and it's really cute, which is also a good thing :D

I'd love a Fringe one, too. I guess I need to go hunt down some Fringe caps.
