fanart recs comm
A while ago I wondered about the lack of a Crack Van style community for fanart recs. After some dithering I've taken the plunge to create one myself after all, and there now exists ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
fanart_recs. Still somewhat under construction, but there is a brief intro, and a sign-up post for people who would like to volunteer for some recs. The community is open for fanart recs from all fandoms (whether books, comics, cartoons, live action, anime, RPF...), genres, styles and ratings. (Please someone volunteer?) Membership is open, but posting is restricted to the reccers who have signed up to post recs.
I've decided to leave the number and selection of fandoms in any month to chance, because a more rigid scheme like the original Crack Van has seemed rather a lot of work to maintain long term -- I mean, I'm prepared to pimp the community in search of volunteers, but not dedicated enough to guarantee finding reccers for a list of fandoms every month.
Feedback and additional suggestions/questions for the intro/rules, helpful advice from experienced rec comm mods, and such are also welcome. Also especially suggestions where to best promote/announce this comm to find members/reccers would be welcome. And of course you can just join/watch to get the fanart recs that hopefully will happen there at some point in the near future. Did I mention that you can volunteer to rec? October slots for all fandoms are wide open right now. ;)
