There are many many amazing MCR picspams, and I love this one especially:

MCR picspam with no real theme by [personal profile] janesays

Definitely one I ogle often :)

Due to a change on the webhost's side, the Pinboard crosspost will be delayed by 24 hours (keep your fingers crossed that I did everything right).

And now I'm off for brunch, a train/bicycle tour and barbecue in the evening.

Pete-centric fanfic @ 12:08 pm

medicated for being: sick

Hi!

While I continue snuffling through my cold (have decided that that's what it is), I'd love to read some Pete-centric fanfic... suddenly I just really want to read about him.

So, please rec me stories that focus heavily on Pete, and/or are from Pete's pov. Any length and subject matter and pairings/threesomes etc are fine, but I admit I prefer longer stories over short ones most of the time.

Alternatively, where are good Pete-centric recs lists?

Thanks to anyone who can help me out.

Signal Boost @ 09:54 am

medicated for being: sleepy

[personal profile] ilyena_sylph is doing a fundraiser to get [personal profile] killing_rose the fuck away from her abusive living situation. She needs to raise a lot of money, since [personal profile] killing_rose is moving from Alaska to the lower 48, but if you could even donate $5, it'd help a lot. If you can't donate, please, please signal boost.

Fund-raising post here.

Thanks so much.

If you want to copy this post to use as your own signal boost post, copy/past this into your html post creator: NOTE: this code should work on dreamwidth AND livejournal AND any other kind of blogging site that allows html. It's all the same code, you don't have to change anything.

Bad news for people heavily utilizing the LJ Scrapbook @ 11:19 pm


The Scrapbook Update at Livejournal, with a forced migration of the old Scrapbooks to the new system in early May (yeah, that's basically right now!) poses quite a few problems, to quote:

What will happen to my Scrapbook images?

All images from Scrapbook will be automatically transferred to the new version of the service, and will preserve the image & gallery names.

There is currently no tagging system in the new photohosting service, so tags you have created in Scrapbook will not be copied to the new service.

The new version does not currently allow images to exist in multiple galleries. If you have an image which exists in multiple galleries, it will placed in the first gallery which the image is associated with.

Videos are not supported by the new version of Scrapbook. Any videos which are in your Scrapbook will temporarily remain there. Shortly after the migration occurs, you will be sent a notification which contains instructions on how to download these videos.

[...]

Can I still use the old ScrapBook after the switch?

No. The old ScrapBook interface will be inaccessible once the image transfer process has completed.

Podfic: "Negative Space" by jedusaur @ 04:10 pm

medicated for being: excited

podfic cover art for Negative Space by jedusaur

Title: Negative Space by [personal profile] jedusaur
Reader: [personal profile] anotherslashfan
Fandom: Bandom, My Chemical Romance
Pairing: Frank/Gerard
Rating: Explicit
Summary: The important point to establish here is that Frank is not going to cheat on his wife.
Content Notes: Dirty Talk, UST
Length: 17m:06s

Reader's notes: Thanks to my betas [personal profile] sylvaine and [personal profile] letsgofriday, whose help was indispensable and incredibly useful. There are no words for their awesomeness!
I must also thank [personal profile] turlough because were it not for her extensive and incredibly organized archive of MCR photos, I could never have made a cover art (although she would have done it much, much better than I and my fumbling through gimp could ever achieve).
A special thanks also goes to [personal profile] crazybutsound: she was the one to make me fall in love with [personal profile] jedusaur's fics; and her incredible talent also inspired me to try my hand at podficcing even though English isn't my first language.
Thank you, [personal profile] jedusaur, for writing so many amazing stories and allowing us to podfic them!
And of course, thank you to everyone who pointed me towards tutorials and/or cheered me on!

It's an interesting survey, and pretty well structured. So curious what the results will be!

Grarrgh @ 01:00 pm

medicated for being: busy

I've gone a bit quiet fandom-wise because of work and uni stuff. It always takes me a few weeks to adjust to a new schedule and new tasks, so there's not much energy left over, and what there is of it goes towards doing the White Collar recs at [livejournal.com profile] crack_van this month.

Concerning my plans to add Bandom stuff to Fanlore: it's not abandoned, I just chose a bad time for it, I guess. I will try and go back to it as soon as I can.

Being stressed makes it harder for me to enjoy reading fanfic, so I'm much more likely to abandon a story even if it is good. So right now I'm indulging in Panic! GSF fic (That's What He Said by [archiveofourown.org profile] addictedkitten) or re-reading comforting stories or listening to podfic.

Oh yes, [personal profile] crazybutsound has posted the last two parts of her podfic of Tell Me To Stop and it's fabulous. Her version really hits some different spots than [personal profile] klb's, which is also great.

ETA: [personal profile] crazybutsound's version is locked, as I just noticed - but if you have access and haven't listened to it yet, you totally should! I hope she'll post it publicly somewhere?

ETA2: Tell Me to Stop read by crazybutsound

Gerard Way at Fanlore @ 09:39 pm

medicated for being: accomplished

I've gone ahead and started a page for Gerard Way here: Gerard Way @ Fanlore.

Right now there is lots of stuff missing: facts for his bio, anything about his relationship to the other bandmembers (as shown in fanon), references (for the various tropes), links to Gerard-focused comms/pages/picspams etc. Please have a look and start adding your own five cents at Fanlore, or leave content suggestions in comments to this post. Thank you to everyone who helps!

Find more info here: Bandom/MCR on Fanlore.
