Inception Reverse Bang

Posting will begin February 11. Also new this year is an Inception Reverse Bang Collection on Ao3. Instructions on how to post to the Ao3 collection at the bottom of this entry.

If an Artist has two Authors writing for a particular art piece, the Artist must make the Master Post to i_reversebang. If there is only one Author writing for a piece, the Artist and Author may decide amongst themselves who should make the Master Post.

When it is your posting date, you may post your story and art to your LJs/Dreamwidths/AO3 accounts. You will then link to the story and art in the masterpost to i_reversebang using following format:

<strong>Art Prompt Title: </strong><a href="LINK">ART TITLE</a> <strong>Art link: </strong><a href="LINK">Art Master Post</a> <strong>Artist: </strong><lj user=""> <strong>Fic Title: </strong><a href="LINK">FIC TITLE</a> <strong>Author: </strong><lj user=""> <strong>Pairing(s): </strong> <strong>Rating: </strong> <strong>Word Count: </strong> <strong>Warnings: </strong> <strong>Summary: </strong>

For Example:

Art Prompt Title: Two Dudes and a Window
Art link: Art Master Post
Artist: keelain

First Claim
Fic Title: Two Dudes
Author: bauble
Pairing(s): Gen
Rating: G
Word Count: 20
Warnings: None.

Summary: Why are these guys still standing in front of a window? Will the riddle ever be solved?

Second Claim
Fic Title: I saw the sun
Author: chibi_lurrel
Pairing(s): Dude/Dude
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 3000
Warnings: None.

Summary: Two guys see the sun through the window and then decide to have sex in front of it. Fun is had.

Please keep Author/Artist notes, disclaimers, and other things to the actual fic/art posts. This will help prevent Master Posts in this community from getting too lengthy or cluttered. Every Master Post made to i_reversebang will be put in the moderation queue and reviewed before being allowed through. We (the mods) will not be able to read every fic that is posted.

Warnings: Please be conscientious about using appropriate warnings, which you may put under spoiler text. If you have questions about proper warnings to put on a fic, you may send an email to ireversebang @ gmail to discuss the issue.

Banners are allowed in the Master Post so long as they are work-safe and no larger than 400px in width and 350px in height.

Ao3 Inception Reverse Bang Collection: Here are instructions for how to include your story in the collection
1. Go to this URL: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/Inception_Reverse_Bang
2. Click on the button at the top right that says, "Post to Collection"
3. Fill out the fields. You can include a link to the artwork/fic.
4. I recommend Previewing the post to check for any typos or formatting issues.

Here are the guidelines for submitting your art drafts for claims in i_reversebang.

• Art pieces may be finished or works in progress.
  
• They are due by Sunday, October 8, but you may send them in before then if you are ready.
  
• Submissions should be sent to ireversebang@gmail.com with the subject: Art Submission. Attach the file(s) to the email.
  
• You can submit up to two art pieces. These pieces should not be linked, as each piece could be chosen by different authors.
  
• If you are doing a comic style piece with panels, it must be one image file which will then count as one piece.
  
• There is no maximum size for art, though each art prompt must be at least 400 by 600 pixels. If it is a vid it must be at least 1 minute in length. You may also submit an audio file following the rules set out here.
  
• There is no need to submit a thumbnail version.
  
• Images can be sent in the following formats: GIF, JPG, PNG, and TIFF.
  
• Music or other non-visual art will be accepted as long as you can explain what it is in the description for authors.
  
• Vids can be sent in the following formats: 3GP, ASF, AVI, MOV, MPEG, MPG, RM, RV, and WMV. Alternatively, you may upload it to Youtube and send us the link. If you're sending in a YT link, please make sure there's no identifying information about you the artist in the vid or on the page
  
• We will be requiring the following naming convention: artistname_piece#. For example bauble_piece1.jpg. This will allow us to keep things organized and to ensure no duplicate file names.
  
• Art will be posted for claims anonymously, so please do not publicly post your art anywhere beforehand.

For each image you need to fill out the following information:

Livejournal Name:
Email:
Piece #:
Rating:
Suggested Pairing(s): (indicate here if you want gen, have pairing preferences or don’t care either way)
Description: (optional)

Please copy and paste the above text into your email to make sure you don't forget anything.

Here is an example of what the body of the email should contain if you have 2 pieces to submit:

Livejournal Name: bauble

Pairing(s): Gen or Ariadne/Mal

If you have any questions re: submissions, please comment to this entry.

We have received 28 art submissions in total! There's still time for authors to sign up & claim a piece of art. Be sure to join the LJ community in order to see the claims post.

Here is a breakdown of the art we have received so far by various categories:

6 Arthur/Ariadne
18 Slash Arthur/Eames
2 Gen
2 non Ariadne/Arthur & non Arthur/Eames pieces
7 Not Safe For Work
21 Safe for work

Please note that in the Claims Post, pieces will all be grouped by the first pairing listed. Everyone should be sure to read the Suggested Pairings field carefully, as many art pieces feature several possible pairings. Also, pieces in the Gen category may have suggested pairings as well (ie, Pairing: Gen, or Arthur/Eames).

Not Safe for Work Claims will be towards the bottom of the post below a divider.

Several Reminders:

• Multiple authors claiming a single art piece to write for will not be allowed until every single piece is claimed at least once. If that happens, then we will open the pieces up to a second author claiming them. Artists may opt-out of having their pieces claimed a second time by commenting here or emailing the mod account at: ireversebang at gmail.
  
• If you wish to participate in claims, you must join and watch the community. If you are using a proxy, be sure to have them join and watch the community as well.
