Icon anyone?

Inspired by [livejournal.com profile] djinanna I come bearing an icon. It's a little nothing, to thank everyone on the comm for being so wonderful, so informative, inspiring, enthused, embattled...

And yes, I'm in the UK, hence the Brit-spelling. Like it? Nab it.

Smile, you've been bannered!



Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] elisi for inspiring this. And you've got a great icon, BTW. ^_^

(no subject)

Could somebody tell me whether [livejournal.com profile] mimbo is Chris Williams or David Williams? I'm not sure.

Because apparently [livejournal.com profile] mimbo responded to a short poll here which asked how Chris Williams' answers to Henry Jenkins affected our opinions of FanLib. (Let's just say he's an outlier in the results.)

Also, is this a breach of netiquette if he is Chris? The questions not being exactly aimed at him and all . . . did he realize that anybody could see who answered what?

The all-male board of directors at fanlib, and why it is relevant

Thought some people here might be interested in my meta post on sexism and Fanlib here.

More FanLib icons

The first batch of FanLib icons was so popular I made more. I tried to make this batch have more variety. These icons were inspired by this post made by [livejournal.com profile] scarah2. Again these icons are work safe for your viewing pleasure.



16 icons found here at my journal.

Workers of the World Unite: An Old School Marxist Analysis of FanLib vs. Fandom

I've been watching the FanLib debacle roll out (and roll over its own toes) since the beginning, commenting a bit but mainly watching you guys go to town. And can I just say, when y'all go to town you really go to town!

I haven't joined in the dialogue yet because so many people have said what I think in much more eloquent ways. But tonight while chatting with [livejournal.com profile] sarcasticchick and reading [livejournal.com profile] anqualupin's insightful analysis on the irreconcilable differences between fandom and FanLib, we realized something: This is old school Marxist thought in action.

See a simple comment explode! )
