Back to Middle-earth Month

Before we get to the banners, I have a few announcements regarding this year's review challenge.

First, it appears to be impossible to complete review challenge #12 (review a piece with three or fewer first-level comments) right now. This is awesome in that it means that everyone has been very generous with comments! But it is a bummer if you're trying to complete this challenge. The mod team has decided to open challenge #12 to all B2MeM stories, regardless of the year written, so that those of you who want to complete this challenge and collect this stamp can do so.

When you're finished the individual review challenges, if you would like all of your stamps put together into a single graphic for you, we will be glad to do that. Either comment here or on the review challenge page, or send us an email to b2mem.mod@gmail.com. If you have been reporting your challenges, you do not need to let us know anything but that you're ready for your graphic to be made; we'll do the rest. If you have not been reporting your challenge, please let us know which stamps you need. Thank you to those of you who have contacted us so far--I will have your graphics to you in the next few days!

Below the cut, you will find award banners for the grand prizes for the review challenge. I still hope to add some icons--at present, we have only banners--so if you'd like an icon to display, keep checking back. [ETA ... a HUGE thank you to lignota who saw my message here and sent me a set of icons! <3] Many, many thanks to heartofoshun, lignota, and indy1776 for their assistance in making the banners!

To display your banner, you can either right-click to save the image you want, then upload it to the image host of your choice (Photobucket, Image Shack, Shutterfly, etc.). Or you can copy the HTML below the image and use it wherever HTML is acceptable.

The total reviews needed for each level of grand prize are as follows:

60+ reviews: Silmaril
50-59 reviews: mithril
40-49 reviews: platinum
30-39 reviews: gold
20-29 reviews: silver
10-19 reviews: bronze

All of your reviews for B2MeM 2014 pieces count toward the grand prize, even if you also used those reviews to claim stamps. (Reviews for past stories count if they were for challenges #12 and #13.) You do not need to report your reviews; simply claim the banner you want and enjoy!

tarion_anarore, the_winterwitch, and I have made a few banners and icons for our participants in B2MeM 2014: Seasons of Middle-earth. "Participant" includes all types of participation. Whether you've signed up for the compilation, will post non-compilation writing or art during March, are participating as a reviewer, or have volunteered to help with this year's event, feel free to grab a banner or icon if you want!

I will continue adding to this page as I make more. Anyone who is interested in helping to make banners or icons, please comment here or email us at b2mem.mod@gmail.com.

You can either copy the HTML code beneath the image you want and paste it wherever HTML is acceptable, or you can right-click to save the image to you computer, then upload it to your image host.
