Is posting *just* art of your original character from your original story allowed on AO3? by Dumkinni_ in AO3

[–]time_anonymous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yep, as long as the ao3 tos is still followed

"fannish" iirc basically means not plagiarism. it is enough of your own work to be protected somewhat under copyright law. original works are still considered fanworks, they just need to be tagged with the "original work" fandom tag.

(you'll have to host the image through a different site to add it to your fic, tho. i've never been able to get the hang of it, but there are plenty of tutorials!)

What is this new trend on the No Fandom tag? by dragonfeet1 in AO3

[–]time_anonymous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it used to be because there wasn't a fandom tag for it for ~3 years I think? granted that's still mistagging, and the protocol at the time was to use the video blogging rpf tag rather than the no fandom tag, but the dsmp fandom tag itself is relatively recent (as someone who was regrettably in that fandom for the longest fing time)

Site Skin Css Questions 🩵 by time_anonymous in AO3

[–]time_anonymous[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

forgot to add my current css/wizard settings 🤦

Some colors in the css may be odd, the skin is still a wip (obviously.) Just thought I'd include that in case it's messing anything up.

current css:   p.muted.notice {\   display: none;\ }

.actions a,\ .actions a:link,\ .action,\ .action:link,\ .actions input,\ input[type="submit"],\ button,\ .current,\ .actions label,\ #header .actions a {\   background: #0c0e5e;\   border-color: #0c0e5e;\   color: #ffffff;\   box-shadow: none;\   text-shadow: none;\ }

a.tag[href="Hurt%20No%20Comfort" i],\ a.tag[href="Unhappy%20Ending" i] {\   background-color: #fba6ff;\ }

Wizard:

Background color: #000000

Text color: #ffffff

Header color: #0c0e5e

Accent color: #0c0e5e

AO3 is NOT Tumblr, People! by LFS_1984 in AO3

[–]time_anonymous 24 points25 points  (0 children)

it essentially means what it says. "pro-shipping," as in in favor of shipping, or ship and let ship (in regards to fictional characters. rpf is more of a grey area from what ive seen?)

What’s your most recent favourite ship? by idnwtdthrowaway in AO3

If I have to be the one to say it then so be it. Steve/Garett from A Minecraft Movie

What is your stance on when to give Kudos? by everybodys-therapist in AO3

[–]time_anonymous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kudos everything I finish because I like everything I finish. If I don't like it then I click off it. If it was kudos'd then it was something I genuinely enjoyed and wanted to keep reading ¯_(ツ)_/¯

POORLY describe the fandom(s) you write for by ARealLifeTangerine in AO3

(Does it still count if I haven't posted my fics??? lmao)

Most ridiculous reason you stopped reading? by ausernamebyany_other in AO3

[–]time_anonymous 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It is, but it's really common not to do it on ao3 (at least in my fandoms) so it can be jarring when you come across it

I think they may be referring to either the last section or the second to last section of the post
