Admin Post: Bannermaker Signups: May

[fanweeklymod]

First off, my sincerest apologies for falling behind on bannermaking the last couple of months. Life got intense, and unfortunately keeping up with banners fell by the wayside. I'm going to be working on catching up over the next few weeks, but if anyone would be interested in helping out with banners for past challenges, please let me know!

That being said, prompts have been written for the next month, so they are available for bannermakers if anyone is interested in signing up.

Challenge 091: 4/21-4/28
Challenge 092: 4/28-5/5
Challenge 093: 5/5-5/19
Challenge 094: 5/19-5/26
Challenge 095: 5/26-6/2

Please note that Challenge 093 will be a two-week challenge, since I have real-life commitments the week of the 10th that will keep me from posting on time.

Bannermaker guidelines below the cut, in case anyone wants to review those before signing up.



Stylistically, the design is up to each maker! They can be as simple or as complex as you want, and can be any size that will fit reasonably on a DW reading page. Each banner should:
Include the community name "fandomweekly"
Include the challenge number (ex: "#007") and (optionally) the theme itself
Include the winner's username (from the winner's post)
Include the place they won (first/1st/second/2nd/etc)
Be posted with the banners tag and the correct challenge tag from the tags list
EX: #banners, 007 - traveling
And should be posted at any point in the week following the voting announcement.


If you are not able to make the banners for your week, please let me know as early as possible so I can find a backup option!

Also, as a reminder, ideas for prompts are always welcome and can be submitted here! Comments are screened, and any kind of suggestion is welcome.

I could do any week starting from challenge 093.

I'd tentatively offer helping out with past banners, if it's be okay if they'd take a week or two.

I can do 091. Also, like the other commenter said, I can also do past weeks if need be.

[fanweeklymod]

Thank you very much! I appreciate the help.

The past weeks currently needing to be finished are 076 Closed Doors, 078 Fairy Tales, 079 First Snow, 080 Opposites Attract, 081 Haunted House, 082 Countdown, 083 Below Zero, 085 Head in the Clouds, 086 Once in a Lifetime, 087 Leadership, 088 Regrets, 089 Success, and 090 Road Trip. If you want any of them, just let me know and I'll cross them off my to-do list. Past ones can be done anytime that's convenient for you; if no one else picks them up, I'll keep working my way through until they're all caught up.

Fantastic! I'll PM you the 093 prompt in just a moment.

There's no rush at all on getting past banners done - if you have time over the next few weeks, that's great, but I'll keep working on the list as well.

It's been ages since I volunteered for bannermaking (damn you rl!) so please let me know any slots that need filling.

[stefanyeah]

Got it. :D

I'll have a go at the wintery ones; 079 First Snow and 083 Below Zero. If there's still a need for more banners to be made, gimmeh a nudge. :)

[fanweeklymod]

Thank you very much! I'll cross those off my to-do list.

[fanweeklymod]

RL happens! If you want to do one of the upcoming ones, 92, 94, and 95 are all still available.

If you'd prefer one of the past banners, 076 Closed Doors, 078 Fairy Tales, 080 Opposites Attract, 081 Haunted House, 082 Countdown, 085 Head in the Clouds, 086 Once in a Lifetime, 087 Leadership, 088 Regrets, 089 Success, and 090 Road Trip are still waiting on banners as well - I currently have a schedule set up for making them, but you're welcome to any of them that catch your eye.

[m_findlow]

I can do 92 if that sorts out the immediate gap, and I'll take a look at the past challenges and spot any that I didn't place in (as awesome as making banners for myself is, doesn't always feel right!) and let you know asap.

[fanweeklymod]

Thank you, that would be fantastic! No worries on the past challenges - I promise I'll do my best to get your challenges covered on my end.

[sumilong]

I can do 78 and 86 for now. If I can do any others I'll let you know. :D

[m_findlow]

No stress. I'll work backwards from #90 and we can meet in the middle! I'm in a banner making mood. :)
