Hello everyone!

It's been a wonderful three weeks with you all here, but now the event has come to a close. Many thanks to everyone who joined in with posts, events, and comments, and I hope y'all have a wonderful weekend ♥

Thanks to all the donors and giftees for stepping forward to take part in the Points Gifts challenge.

In the end we had 16 donors and 20 giftees. Donors have been notified and will be making their point gifts directly to assigned giftees. If you offered to donate and have not received a direct message from me, please let me know.

Giftees should be seeing messages from Dreamwidth when the gifts go through. If you have not received anything by May 31, please let me know as something may have gone awry.

Once all gifts have been sent we will have added $402 to Dreamwidth's intake this year \o/

I'm hosting a comment event at the gamechangerhr community. Each post features two meme-style questions about Heated Rivalry. You can find all of the posts at the three weeks for DW tag. If you like Heated Rivalry, come join us!

fandomocweekly is hosting an adopt-a-prompt amnesty meme. There are lots of prompts without fills any fills. (The quickest way to find an unfilled prompt is to look on the community tags page and choose a challenge prompt with only one post.)

To participate, comment on the adopt-a-prompt post and post your fill to the community by May 15th! Here are the posting guidelines and FAQs.

In this event's first week 15 people stepped forward to donate Dreamwidth points to other site users who wanted to add or try out paid features. Per their pledges we have enough points to gift either 68 people $3 each in points, or fewer people enough points for particular things (such as 6 months of a premium paid account, a rename token, extra icons, etc.).

Now however it's your turn: we need people who would like paid features to step forward! Leave a comment indicating you'd like some Dreamwidth points, or mention what you'd specifically like the points for. (That way I can allot points based on desired purchases). Comments to this post are screened and all you need say is "Points!".

Remember, paid features is the only way to support Dreamwidth financially. Having giftees means we give Dreamwidth financial resources for all they do.

Please also promote this offer in your account and communities if you're not interested in paid features yourself! ( Read more... )

Please leave a comment by May 14! On May 15 I'll start matching donors with giftees and those leaving comments here should be receiving points by the end of the month.

(Also if you'd still like to donate points, just visit the donor post and comment with the amount there)

Weekly Challenge: Do you have a big current interest? Something you've just watched or read you'd like to chatter about? Go to Explore/Site And Journal Search and look to see if others are talking about it. Join in.
(for media this works best with recent stuff, but you can always try your luck!)

How'd that go, any luck?

• community love •

Community culture used to be big back in the day, but as fics drifted over to AO3, fanart and graphics to tumblr, and random thoughts/reviews sprinkled in just about everywhere, the communities have been somewhat left behind. But they're such a wonderful hub for potential new folks to stumble across!

This is your opportunity to tell others about wonderful communities you enjoy, and those you wish to breathe life back into.

I've never created a meme of my own so I thought I'd give it a try.

Come get a line of poetry from yours truly! I have too many poets and poems I just adore, so I thought why not share some with the DW community?

bnha_fans is hosting another Themed Rec Fest to celebrate Dreamwidth this year :) If you're a fan of Boku no Hero Academia/My Hero Academia, consider popping by to share your recs and enjoy other members'!

As part of 3weeks4dreamwidth, fanmix_monthly is hosting a mini mix meme! Come get some music recommendations and revive a fading part of fandom culture.

Hosting some drabblethons over at seventhdoctor and first_doctor, for any Classic Doctor Who fans out there.

And also hosting a drabblethon over at conradveidt, for any silent film and Old Hollywood enthusiasts.

So to honor 3weeks4dreamwidth & the first time participating in it, I've added some low-pressure drabbleathons at a few of my communities I maintain:

darcyland (Darcy Lewis community, guidelines)

olliesqueens (Oliver Queen aka Green Arrow gen & Oliver het ship community, guidelines)

werewolvesden (Werewolf & Other Were-Shifter fandoms community, guidelines)

uc_xmen (X-Men Unconventional/Non-Canon ships community, guidelines)

tvfanfiction (TV Shows Fanfiction community, guidelines)

animatedfanfiction (Animated Films & Shows Fanfiction Community, guidelines)

comicsfanfiction (Comics Fanfiction community, guidelines)

and a low pressure, no signup icon 20in20 challenge at:

supergirl_tv (a Supergirl (any universe) community, Rules/Themes)

I ran this a few years ago, and thought I'd go again: one card drawn per day and posted with description and interpretation, comments open for all fanworks in all fandoms.

Check out my Three Weeks for Dreamwidth tag to see the first card this year, and all the cards from 2022.

I absolutely love tarot for the rich visuals and just how many different readings/thoughts it can prompt. And many people use tarot for creative work, storytelling, roleplaying... and so here it is, the prompt meme! Featuring The Mystical Dream Tarot & The Citadel: A Fantasy Oracle.
(sorry too beat up atm to make a new banner featuring both decks *sheepish*)


The Mystical Dream Tarot & Citadel Oracle
Prompt Meme
Open to all fanworks. Come play with us!

In the last 4 years a successful effort was made to support Dreamwidth by gifting points to other DW users. Let's make it 5!

Since part of the purpose of the 3 Weeks event is to generate support for the Dreamwidth site, I'd like to issue a call for Dreamwidth users who can spare a little cash to offer points for other Dreamwidth users.

What does that mean?

Dreamwidth services can be purchased through points. Points cost 10 cents ($0.10 USD) each and can be used in place of cash in the site store. ( Read more... )

Questions can also be left in comments below and I will either respond directly or update this post with further information.
