buffyversetop5Each of these fan created sites provides helpful resources for particular fannish work.
(1) Whether for creating computer themes, spicing up the website, or finding out the lyrics to some of those tracks, Buffy Galaxy has a page with the various songs featured on BtVS by episode along with some dialogue sound clips.
(2) For vidders Buffyverse Music Video Database provides a one-stop shop. If you love vids, it’s a wonderful pointer to them and has great searchability by creator, musical act, song name, characters, etc. The links are sometimes dead but folks do move around a lot on the net. I hope vidders keep their entries updated because I’ve found bunches of vids through this site.
(3) For artwork Slayerverse is handy for magazine scans and other visual content, and it also posts fannish material like graphics and vids. As a result it’s also got a great archive of photos.
(4) For writers Buffyverse Dialogue Database has to be one of the most useful sites ever, whether for fic or meta writing. I wish its searchability was a bit better but having it at all is fabulous. It seems I refer to it every few weeks. It's a great gift to the fandom.
(5) Writing a fic and can't find that fact you're looking for? Trying to figure out something new to write about? Trying to remember who or what something is? The Buffyverse Encyclopedia is a large downloadable Word file that you can then browse or search through the Find function.

Date: 2006-01-28 06:46 am (UTC)I can imagine too that the first would prove useful for finding common themes. I know that song that was playing when Buffy and Spike first met in Season 2 seems to have heavy resonance for the rest of their interaction.
The last link looks great too, just the thing I'd need :)
