A PAID account!

[court1429.livejournal.com]

Last night I wrote:

There are now 440 tags. And only about 3-4 months' worth of entries have been tagged. And a free account is limited to 1000 tags. ahem.

That "ahem" was truly not a veiled (or overt) hint for someone to buy the comm an account. ;) It was intended as a "holy shit! 440 tags in three months' worth of tagging and we only get 1000" kind of an ahem.

But an anonymous member took my "ahem" and turned it into a year of paid time! More tags and a lot of flexibility in layouts, which will in no way rely on my pitiful skills. So, at some point in the not-too-distant future, we will have a beautifully colored, fandom-specific, comm-specific layout to unveil.

So, to our benefactor: THANK YOU!!! {{{{ getithere's fairy godmother }}}}

Congratulations, Court! It couldn't happen to a nicer comm. I think you get more traffic than any other QAF community, so you should have a paid account! ♥

[court1429.livejournal.com]

I don't know about the most traffic, but it's always been one of my favorite comms, that's for sure. And now it will be pretty, too! ;) 'Cause, you know... *points*

[eileen-donovan.livejournal.com]

Well, I see it over and over again on my flist every single day--can't say that about any other comm. It's always entertaining not to mention informative.

*giggles at icon* So true! And you've got an awesome set of icons! ;)

This is so awesomesauce. Everyone benefits from having this place here. I have a question, if we have any questions or suggestions - who do I submit it to or where?

[court1429.livejournal.com]

You can PM vlredreign or me.

[passing-through.livejournal.com]

It's because you're so awesome Court!

[court1429.livejournal.com]

hee! I don't know about me, but the comm definitely is. ;)

Thank you to whomever did this wonderful thing of paying for an account for this Community.

[nikkiglitz01.livejournal.com]

That is really amazing!

Thank you

[kat-us.livejournal.com]

Whoever did this wonderful thing is a hero in my book!

I can't imagine LJ without this comm, so anything that will enhance it is truly a gift for all of us :D

[wouldbedorothy.livejournal.com]

Yay and thank you to our benefactor! Really, I feel bad that I didn't think to do it, lol!

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

Don't feel bad at all! I am still stunned that someone decided to do this!

[rinmonsterer.livejournal.com]

who's making the new layout? This one's kind of.... eye-melting purple :P

[kat-us.livejournal.com]

I think this format is just temporary while they finalize and organize things.

I'm not a fan of purple either so I just click on "view in my style" and voila, purple all gone :D

[rinmonsterer.livejournal.com]

yeah, but people without paid accounts have to suffer every time ;)

[court1429.livejournal.com]

I had NO idea the view in own style wasn't available for free accounts. I changed it. Better? I like it better. In fact, I've used this scheme on my own LJ before.

[netlagd.livejournal.com]

I like the purple more than the teal blue

[court1429.livejournal.com]

I did it just for you. I don't like it, though. The Flexible Squares layout, which I like a lot, has truly unappealing color schemes, IMO.

[rinmonsterer.livejournal.com]

I like tan and grayish and white more :D Old Chinese proverb says: the more neutral colors you use, the less eyes you offend.

[court1429.livejournal.com]

Isn't it, though? Netlagd said she missed the purple so I switched the colors. I don't much like it, either, but it won't be here for long and besides, I read the comm in my own style. lol

[rinmonsterer.livejournal.com]

besides, I read the comm in my own style. lol

Unfortunately, people without paid accounts don't have this comfort :)


It's not as much the fact that it's *purple* as the fact it's *neon* purple. Or almost. If you want assistance with layouts, I'd be glad to help. I made my own and the one on promptmesomeqaf and I'm familiar with good designs by other makers, so if you decide on something readable and functional it's not a problem ;)

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

Oh, don't worry, the purple of doom is temporaary!

[masterglory.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you from the deep of my heart, whoever you are, you have give to all of us a precious gift^_____^!!!

I adore this comm, and I love the admins...wonderful people who works hard to help us to brighten and grow our passion for Qaf, this is one of my fav places on lj:)

[kinwad.livejournal.com]

This comm definitely deserves it! You provide such an amazing service to the fandom!

[chaotic-boom.livejournal.com]

Wow, thanks anonymous benefactor!!

[autumnrae89.livejournal.com]

Congrats!

I've only been part of the comm for a few days but I'm already having so much fun with it, reading other people's searches. So a big thank to you and anyone/everyone involved in making the comm awesome. :)

[netlagd.livejournal.com]

I was going to make some smart assed comment regarding the Ahem, but I was sick and didn't get to make it.
I thought it was a rather amusing guilt ridden cry for donations post.
congrats

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

Honest to god it wasn't!!! Court just went tag crazy and was commenting on the fact that she'd done so many in such a short time. We were so shocked by this!!

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

I love this fandom!!! I don't always love the drama...okay, fine, I love the drama, lol, but seriously, you guys are the best!!!!

MUCH LOVE AND HUGS FROM RED!!!!!!

*extra SQUISHEES to our fairy godmother*

A modly moment

[vlredreign.livejournal.com]

I'd like to mention that seanmegansean and cabtastic took care of this comm for a long time. I came on to help SMS when she was out of the country, and stayed to help her out. Her life got crazy busy (still is), so we drafted court1429 to help out. It's mostly me and Court these days, but I just wanted to mention the lovely ladies that came before us.
