Buffy/Willow archive



hee hee...yes, you read right....this is about the archive :)  It's being worked on as we speak and should be up and running in about A WEEK!!!!  I'm all giddy with impending ficcy goodness..can you tell ;)
 
In a nutshell, we'll be in database form.  This means that it will be the author's responsibility to upload their fics.  First off for testing, uploading will occur on an invitational basis..then when the bugs get worked out if there are any..it'll be a free for all.  For now I need your help on stuff OTHER than fic.
 
If you volunteer for a task, please be committed to it.  Some are hard, some are easy..but most importantly it's for all of our benefit.  Here's the list.
 
1.  Screen caps - Shippy caps first and foremost.  Everyone can get in on the mix here. 
 
2.  Shippy quotes FROM EVERY EPISODE - I know this can be a daunting task, but we have the transcripts at our fingertips over at Psych's (http://studiesinwords.de/buffy.html). Not including season 7, there are 122 episodes.  If 25 people volunteer to search for shippy quotes, then I'd need 25 volunteers and they'd get 4 episodes each.  That makes it much less of a daunting task for say 3 or 4 people :)
 
3.  Fanart - desktop wallpaper, icons, Winamp skins, Yahoo skins, AIM icons, manipulated images.  You name it, we want it.
 
4.  Bio's - We already have the decent beginnings of Buffy's and Willow's bios....but I think we should include the cast also.  This would include anyone who's ever been on the show more than 5 times.  Seems like a good number, no?  Group effort.  Just tell me who you wanna do and their yours.
 
5.  Beta readers - Just let me know if you're willing to be put on the beta reader list.  If you don't know, a beta reader is someone who proof reads a story for an author before the author puts it out on the list or in an archive.  They check grammar, spelling and continuity of the story.
 
That's all I can think of right now.  If anyone has any other suggestion on what to put on the site, let me know.  Now for the official stuff.
 
A.  Keep your eyes peeled for a poll soon.  We need a name!!! (more details to come)
B.  Send questions, comments, inquiries and let me know if you want to volunteer to this email addy:  (BWArchive@xxxxxxxxxxx)
 
Thats all I can think of for now.
