Ho ho ho from Slashy Santa! As a belated holiday gift-- or an early Valentine treat-- to the My Slashy Valentine participants, your deadline has been EXTENDED to SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7! Since we are now a self-uploading site, I will no longer have to hand-code the stories, and I'm passing the savings on to you!

IF YOU DO NOT THINK YOU WILL BE ABLE TO COMPLETE YOUR STORY, PLEASE LET ME KNOW! It's only fair that you allow time to find a pinch-hitter so your reader is not left in the cold.

UPLOADING HINTS FOR THE NEW SITE!
Here are some important guidelines to help you upload your stories correctly:

  • Please do NOT use the text upload function unless you are uploading a plain .txt file with html. Use cut-and-paste to to add your story to the STORY TEXT field.

  • If you use the upload function to upload a Microsoft Word document or .RTF file, it will include all sorts of junky code that will create weird spacing and formatting errors which the Admin must then remove, thus defeating the entire purpose of making this a self-uploading site!

  • You may use either a plain .txt file with your own html, or you may use our handy TinyMCE text editor to add any bolding, italics, underlining, etc. It works just like MS Word! Easy-peasy!

  • The old HTML header is now redundant, as the submission form provides a place to put all the pertinent information EXCEPT for Beta. I'm working on a solution for this, but in the mean time, please THANK YOUR BETA somewhere in the story notes, chapter notes, or end notes.

  • You should be able to preview and edit your story while logged into your account

  • Any questions or problems, please email slashysanta@gmail.com

Hopefully I'll be able to finish within the original deadline - but thank you for the early warning. I've written flat out before now to make a deadline by the skin of my teeth - only to see it extended *after* the original deadline expired!
