krickets→ Seeker fandom is bleeding all over my flist. Sorry guys. That totally sucks. I never got a chance to watch season two but I dug the show during season one. I know how you must feel. *hugs* So many great shows with awesome female characters have ended over the past couple of TV seasons. I heard that Damages got canceled too. Suck doesn't begin to describe these moments. I feel for you all.
→ I was going to write two more fics for the five acts meme but I really think I burnt myself out. I'd need at least another day and I don't think that'd qualify as sneaking it in under the wire, lol. Oh well, it was fun! I wrote seventeen fics for the thing. 17! We're still collecting links, but the amazing meme runner,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
toestastegood, and I have been collecting them all at this here delicious. 319 fics so far, sure to be far more by the end.
→ I had been downloading the episodes nearly every week [except last week] so yesterday I finally decided to start watching The Pacific. I am 3.5 episodes in and really quite enjoying it a whole hell of a lot. Each episode ends and it definitely doesn't feel like an hour has gone by. And I think that's saying something considering that it's a WWII epic. Can't wait to watch the rest and then go readslybrunette's fic. The show is really pretty -- it makes me want to make icons!! [That never happens anymore.]
→ Still have not watched Treme. I blame HBO for having too much good programming to possibly catch up with in a timely manner.
→ QUESTION: How do you feel about fan-artists [of any variety, iconners, vidders, writers, artists] keeping their items under friends-lock so you have to join their community in order to see their work. I for one feel I have been manipulated every time I have to click that "join" button. So to me it does feel manipulative more than anything. [Not to mention annoying.] I just don't get it. Especially when you're going for a hunt for icons and a large chunk of icon posts advertised at the communities end up being locked. It's possible some of you on my flist have comms like that, so feel free to defend your position at will.
And, on a related, though kind of off-topic note, what about icon/art comms that only display ONE entry per page? That makes me so irritated. There's no opportunity to scroll through and see what pops, what looks pretty, etc. Let your eye catch something interesting as you look down the page. It makes the process more time consuming and far less fun than it should be.

Date: 2010-04-27 01:10 pm (UTC)17!!! that is so awesome. and I went to have a look at the delicious account, it's fantastic. thanks so much for the hard work!
When an artist asks me to join in order to see, I say "too bad!" and go elsewhere. it annoys me to no end. and gah, yes, communities with one entry are not convivial at all. ohhh, I wonder if ?style=mine would work for that? damn. now I'd like to find one and try!

Date: 2010-04-27 04:20 pm (UTC)Yeah we still have to collect the rest of what was written after we did the initial collection, but the amount of fic and the amount of fandoms represented is completely awesome!
I'll have to remember ?style=mine for next time. Seriously.
