AO3 for Vidders

Once again, I want to thank everyone for being so supportive and making this auction a success so far. Now is the time when all the hard work is going on - I can sense the anticipation!

A few housekeeping things:
1) For those of you who have finished your vid, you are utterly awesome. Please feel free to post it wherever you'd like (it's your vid, afterall). We would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE for you to post it here as well. :D Feel free to post a link, post an embed, whatever format strikes your fancy. It would be great if you could post the fandom so we can be sure to tag it right.

2) We've got beta posts!! click here to be a beta and if none are available and/or fit your needs, then click here to seek a beta.

3) Also, just a reminder. If you feel you won't be able to complete your vid by mid-August, please try and let us know by the end of July (or let us know that you've made arrangements for an extension with your bidder).

4) We'll post a masterlist at the conclusion of the whole thing in both comms.

THANKS!!

First of all, just a quick reminder that VIDDER SIGN-UPS are open until next Saturday, May 15th.

In related news, OTW recently announced their Vidding Roadmap, outlining their plan for the features and services they hope to provide. Highlights include:
1. Vidding Community Resource Site
2. A Dark Archive (to store and protect vids)
3. A Torrent of Our Own (TO3)
4. AO3 Embed Code
5. Integration of the TO3 into the AO3
"One of the key resources we need to make this project (and others) move forward quickly is people power." More details about volunteering for various OTW projects can be found here.

Also, I'm happy to announce that so far we have 14 vidders signed up between our LJ & DW sites. THIS IS FABULOUS NEWS!
