      ￜ Fanart: Fandoms
      ￜ Fanart: Real Life

      ￜ Fanfiction: Relationships

      Specifying Genres on Applications
    • If there is no genre listed next to a subject within a subcategory that requires genres, it means the fanlisting covers the 'all' genre.
    • If there is already a fanlisting for the 'all' genre of the fanart or fanfiction of the fandom or person that you wish to apply for, you CAN apply for an individual genre provided it hasn't already been approved.
    • If you wish to apply for more than one genre of a subject, you must submit an application for each one.
    • Fanlistings CANNOT be genre stacked (e.g., gen/het, slash/adult, etc), so individual fanlistings need to be built for each genre or there MUST be a field on the join form where members can specify what genre(s) they are joining the fanlisting for and you must include their choice(s) on the members list. This excludes the 'all' genre as this is considered to be all-encompasing.
    • There are some fanlistings currently listed under multiple genres in the category which do not require members to specify what genre(s) they are joining the fanlisting for, however this will not be permitted for fanlistings in the future.

  • Providing URLs
    • Provide me with a link to information about the subject you are applying for. If you wish to apply in the following sucategories, you must provide a URL of a collective or profile for the artist/writer or the URL of the website in the application [e.g. FictionAlley (fictionalley.org)] :
      ￜ Fanart: Artists
      ￜ Fanart: Websites
      ￜ Fanfiction: Authors
      ￜ Fanfiction: Websites
  • Important: A great resource to getting familiar with the category would be Guide to the Fan Works Category. If this is your first time applying (or if you have never read it) please take the time and read through it now. It may clear up some questions you may have.

Did You Know?

It's unfortunate that we have to reject people for fanlistings they apply for, but it's what has to be done if more than one person applies for a fanlisting. If you've received more than one rejection from us, please don't take it personally. It may be due to a number of reasons -- the most likely one is that there was more than one applicant for the fanlisting and a final decision had to be made. Often these are very difficult and it isn't a "problem" with you.
