Anyone fancy some more prompts?

[gilpin25.livejournal.com]

The Stocking Filler Exchange has been running for a little while now, and we hope you're enjoying it as much as we are. In all honesty, we've been thrilled by the response and the enthusiasm and the talent! There have been a lot of great prompts provided, a lot claimed, and we hope lots more R/T fic and art to come. To hopefully keep the inspiration fires burning brightly, and because a few people (like me) were heard to mention that it was hard to narrow the prompt choices they provided down to just three, we thought we'd offer you the opportunity to give us some more.

So should you be wishing you'd included that other idea you had, itching to perhaps see someone tackle it, or simply wanting some fresh ideas now that we're into a new year and out of the hols, it's exactly the same procedure as before. Back at the original Prompt Post Here - not at this one, please, as it will be easier if they're all kept in the same place - just copy the text box you'll see over there again, and leave up to another three prompts if you'd like to. The only difference is, if you've already left three previously, could you number these 4, 5 and 6 so it's easy for others to identify which prompt they're claiming. It may be called The Stocking Filler Exchange, but just to reiterate that neither the prompts nor the fic/art that results from them need to be in any way holiday-related, though holiday themes are welcome of course.

Claiming is also exactly the same as before: you just reply directly to the comment that contains the prompt that takes your fancy, and more than one person can claim the same prompt. And there is still plenty of time to sign-up to take part if you're considering doing so - which you do over there as well - because the exchange runs till January 20th.

Wishing you a happy and creative New Year, and thanks again for helping to put a little lot more R/T fic and art in the world. :)

Yay, getting to submit more prompts! It's like you're right there inside my head, gilpin :-)

Also, ugggh, sorry, apparently I'm doing it wrong... I tried to post my additional prompts, but it didn't work (only showed up if I was logged in and not if not). Then I realized it might be because I included a url; so I deleted my comment and redid it with a proper link instead of just writing the url. Now it seems to have been accepted...but registered as spam. But hopefully it landed in a mod's spam filter somewhere? Sorry if I'm causing trouble over here...!

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure what's going on! I've reinstated the comment, but it still only appears when I'm logged in as well. I'll have a play around and see if I can solve it.

Some of these new prompts are VERY tempting. :D

Would you mind having a look again, both logged in and not, and let me know if it's okay for you now? *crosses fingers*

Oh yes, it seems to have worked! Thank you so much for fixing that – especially seeing as I'm still baffled why that happened in the first place.

Oh good! It was somewhat baffling to us, too, because another YouTube link had earlier been used as a prompt, as had an url, but we're all going to blame LJ for its daft idiosyncrasies. The excellent brain belonging to shimotsuki came up with the final solution anyway, and I'm just sorry it happened to you.

Friday night Firewhiskies all round, I think. ;)

Thanks to both of you, and your excellent brains :-)
