SUMMER OF GILES 2007: WE'RE FINALLY OPEN!

Yay!  Ever since we decided we could do it again, [livejournal.com profile] elizabuffy and I have been waiting like kids for Christmas for this day.   Thank you to all of you who've signed up to contribute, and thank you to all of you who are here to see what these incredibly talented people decide to post.

It is our extreme pleasure to welcome you all to the offical start of the Summer of Giles 2007!!!

Now, a couple of guidelines while we're all here:

Please feedback!
It's the way we let the fabulous contributors know that we appreciate the time and effort they spent creating everything for us.  Even if it's just a couple of words, you might make a difference in someone's day by letting them know you like what they made!  Also, every Friday [livejournal.com profile] elizabuffy is going to drop a reminder that lists the contributions for the previous week, and encourage feedback, just in case you missed a post during the week (or, perhaps RL or other distractions prevented you from commenting on something at the time).

Please be kind!
We really doubt, with this fabulous group, there's going to be a problem with this.  But we've gotta do the standard warning.  Since we're all here to have fun, if you make disparaging remarks, either [livejournal.com profile] elizabuffy or I will warn you once, and ban you from the comm for a second violation.

If you're a contributor and you can't make your date - let us know!!
Hey, stuff happens.  If you see that you're not going to make your sign up date, please let us know ASAP.  We do have some back-up volunteers, but we need to give them time to create.  Just drop either [livejournal.com profile] elizabuffy  or me a comment or send us an email to katekat1010@livejournal.com / elizabuffy@livejournal.com

Please follow the posting directions!
Label your posts, use lj cuts (for more than 3 icons, for all long fics, for all large graphics), and if you're fuzzy on anything, check out the "Sumer of Giles Rules" and "How To Post" section here.  Please, also, try and have your fics betaed before you post them.  Contact either [livejournal.com profile] elizabuffy or me if you need help.

Finally, have tons of fun!
