Feel that change in the air? It means Classic Recs is coming up soon!

Starting at midnight GMT on October 30 (6 PM EST in the U.S. on Oct 29) we’ll be celebrating Halloween through all the time zones. Four days for you to bring your all-time favorite recs of fics, vids, graphics, anything and everything fandom has produced in all the Whedon fandoms! All time periods before 2014 are eligible for posting and, as always, crossover content is A-OK, so get those lists ready!

To start things off, here are some treats for you to spread the fun.

1. 2. 3. 4.

(banners kindly contributed by [livejournal.com profile] dawnofme)

If you missed Top 5 when it was last open in January or if you’ve been wanting to post your earlier recs, now’s the time! If you haven’t posted at Top 5 before, please take a look at
our FAQ page for tips on how to post. If you have any questions, just post them here.

Oh god, I'm so disorganized and half the time, I can't remember the names of the fics or names of the authors and furthermoer, I forget where I found them. I hope I will get my s*** together and return with 5 good recs!

Yes, same here. I've seen other people mention it too.

Yet another glitch.

I thought it was just me the other day until [livejournal.com profile] bangel_4e said she was having the same problem. So definitely some sort of systems glitch. I should probably send a notice to LJ

Sometimes it corrects it if I manually go back and edit the comment, sometimes not.

The time is almost nigh? Hurrah! (And, oh boy, I better get my act together this time.)

No I see it just fine actually! But it worked just fine for me once this half an hour ago and then not, so it's very random-ish. That icon is ADORABLE, btw - is there a banner version?

You have no idea how disconcerting it is when I am writing a cheerful reply and the only icon that will show up is my emotionally intense NA icon when that is NOT the message I want to be sending. At least this gives me renewed appreciation for the function of my icons and how I've come to depend upon them.

*SQUEES*

These are wonderful! Oddly enough my favorites are the sets from '05 and '06, but they're all lovely and fun. (Do I have room for another icon in my gallery? *runs to check*)

Thanks for the link - what a fun idea for a paper! And given the fact that everyone who is online is using an icon of some sort (we used to call them avatars in Moulin Rouge fandom ten years ago) it's a subject that's incredibly overlooked isn't it?

What's the Sitch
