silwritersguildHi, everyone,
Thanks to everyone who emailed or posted on LJ yesterday expressing support for the birthday event. We've decided to go ahead with it, since there is interest, but we've extended the deadline for sending work for themes two weeks to give everyone more time. So our birthday won't happen exactly on our birthday, but it will mean that we all have time to put together something that really represents the range and talent of this group--definitely worth the wait! :)
The deadline for submitting ideas for themes and tokens will remain the same. This deadline is August 7, and you can send ideas for themes and tokens on the birthday page, or email me or the mods directly with your ideas.
Work for the first theme will also be due* August 7, and the first theme will be posted on August 10. We might rearrange the schedule a bit depending on the number of themes we receive, and I will update the schedule in the next few days, but this will definitely be the start date.
* Please remember that due dates apply only to older work that you are sending in for the compilation! If you are creating something new for one of the themes--"new" meaning that it has not been posted publicly anywhere before--you can send it in at any time during the birthday event, and we will add it to the birthday site. We are doing this so that those of you to inspired to create for the earlier themes are not punished by having less time to work than those working on the later themes.
I will be working to get the site updated today with the new information, along with some other admin stuff, so I will probably take a bit longer than I would like to acknowledge receipt of themes, tokens, and work sent in yesterday. If you sent something yesterday and don't hear from me by Tuesday, please let me know! We've already had our avid spam watchdog try to gobble one legitimate email. Many, many thanks to those of you who sent in things yesterday! :)
As always, please let me know if there are any questions. I hope that everyone has a lovely weekend! :)
Dawn
