Prompt 6: Share Fannish Collections

As the [community profile] sunshine_challenge continues, we invite everyone to share fun fannish things they have collected over the years, be they physical items, stories, photos, or links. More details below the cut. Remember that there is no official deadline, so feel free to join in at any time or go back and do any prompts you've missed!



Our love of fandom knows no bounds, and it is not limited to fanworks.

This is the time to share all of the things we have collected over the years showing our love for our favorite fandoms. This can include both things we personally own and things we wish we could add if money/space were no object. It also includes stories and memories that brighten our days.

Have a fandom tattoo? That custom keychain your friend made you 10 years ago? That life size statue of Iron Man someone made that lights up and you absolutely would center your living room around if you could get your hands on it? Convention stories, internet friendships and the ensuing shenanigans … anything that makes you smile when you reflect on it, we’d like to learn more about it!

[personal profile] oldtoadwoman made a tutorial explaining how to add photos to a Dreamwidth post.

There is enough negative energy in the world, so let’s take some time to focus on the happy things and enjoy the joy these collector items bring others.




Once you’ve finished sharing all the things, leave a comment to this post saying you’ve done it! Include a link to your pages if you feel comfortable doing so. Let everyone know whether you are "Ready for visitors!" or "Lurking for fandom fun".

Most importantly, please check through the comments and go visit new journals, comment on their shiny posts, and maybe make a new friend or two. We encourage everyone to aim to comment on two new journals if they are able (of course, you are welcome to do more!). ♥

Check your security level on the photos under manage images and make sure they are set to "Everyone" if you want the images to be public. If your journal defaults to "Access" or "Private" your photos will default to that as well. (You should still be able to see them even if others can't so I don't have an explanation for things vanishing from a reading page.)

Thanks very much, that's good to know! I didn't even think about checking the security level there.

The problem seems to have been solved--I suspect I just botched the HTML in a way that made it look right in the edit screen but wrong once posted--but we'll see.
