-flonnebonne's tiny list of fanart recs! Haha, that's me! But seriously, check out this gorgeous fantasy AU fanart. It is gorgeous.


Guess what? A lot of these lovely pieces of fanart were made in a fabulous paint program called Sai. My favourite! :D
 

Day -5 | Hikaru no Go Layout Competiton!

[qem_chibati]

Hikaru no Go Layout Competiton!

For the new Hikaru no Go Chat room, I would like to hold a competition for creating some new themes!

I've implemented a tool in Layout for the chat room - that lets us have a set up where users can select their own theme to be active, and I'd love to be able to implement quite a few!

The chat room is quite easily customisable by CSS - even the green dots that appear on the side of message can be controlled by CSS, and it's also possible to embed images in the layout box etc. (http://chat.gogohikago.com/demo5.php example demo test chat [will be deleted later])

To see what CSS is capable, please check out the CSS Zen gardens - a great way of demonstrating how powerful CSS can be. http://www.csszengarden.com/



Things that your layout should do:
- Keep the sidebar easily viewable, if needed (it doesn't need to stay a sidebar).
- Keep the pastebox below functional.
- Since we intend to have a variety of themes, it's ok for it to be optimised for a larger screen or a smaller screen - we want to have a variety of themes for different purposes.


Each person entering can submit multiple themes - so feel free to share that special WAYA/KAGA theme for that little something in your life, or a utilitarian ultra mobile-friendly style that's customised for being on the go. <3 Some layout's may want to prioritise our new pastebox so that it's bigger and more easily viewable on a large screen.

Submission Process:

You will need to submit a copy of the code, any relevant images and a screencap of the implementation as it works ideally. :)

Entries can be emailed to: queenie.eiz@care2.com

Due Date: May 25th!

On May 27th (AEST) I will be posting a poll for the community to vote on who should get first place.

Prizes:

1st Prize, as voted by the comm = 30 Dreamwidth points

Each entrant will receive at least 5 DW points - there is no cap on number of entrants.

Seperate from this - for each person who has a theme that is chosen to be incorporated into one of the selections available from the sidebar by the moderators (based on criteria we haven't quite discussed yet) will be awared a bonus 10 DW points.

FAQ:

Will this change the default theme?

The default theme will be selected by moderators to be one that we see as cross browser flexible, and is considered to be entirely separate from the competition.

Can you post an example of the current CSS for me to work form?

Yes!


Examples of the current CSS
http://chat.gogohikago.com/style/common.css <- this is the common file

http://chat.gogohikago.com/style/default.css <- this is the default theme, and what will be swapped around with the new themes.

HnG RP

[mmmdraco]

I have recently gotten into RPing on tumblr and decided that I needed to have a Hikaru account.

So, having said that, I can't seem to find any other HnG RPers on tumblr. Therefore, if you know of any or want to create an account... Please let me know?

Day -3: Chain of drabbles meme!

[troisroyaumes]

(This post was originally supposed to go up several days ago, but due to fail on my part, it is going up now instead, even though it really hasn't been a day since the last countdown post.)

How it works

This meme is loosely based off the premise behind chain_of_fics. Person A writes a fic. Person B then writes a new fic where the first line is the last line of Person A's fic. And so the chain continues...

To make it easy, if you want to write the next fic in the chain, please reply to the fic before, claiming the line. Claims happen on a first-come, first-serve basis. You then have two hours to post the next fic in the chain. Please post the next fic as a reply to this post rather than as a reply to the previous fic, to keep the comment threads navigable.

If you haven't posted it by the end of two hours, you forfeit your claim, and the next person to claim the line will continue the chain.

Reminder To Vote For Yearbook Poll Nominees!

[mmmdraco]

I've been pre-tallying the counts for the Yearbook Poll Nominees and we have several questions that have only one character to have received more than one vote. If you have not yet voted in that poll (which is just the nomination stage), please do so within the next 24 hours or so in order that our poll can be ready for the voting to commence on the 4th for the final voting round.

Thanks!
