hatmanWelcome to Dreamwidth Rocks!
The community bio pretty much sums things up. Hopefully, it's self-explanatory.
I would, however, like to take a cue from![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
iconic and kick things off with a contest.
I'd considered making it a "best reason/way that Dreamwidth is awesome" contest, but almost immediately rejected the idea. First, because it doesn't seem right to try to put a relative value on that sort of thing. More importantly, though, trying to do that misses the point of the comm.
Instead, I've come up with a contest that's just slightly off topic.
The (Absolutely, Positively, In No Way Official) Dreamwidth Slogan Contest!
Comment on this post with your idea for an unofficial Dreamwidth slogan. Contest is open to everyone, whether you have a beta account or an OpenID. Enter as often as you'd like. All comments screened. All appropriate G-rated suggestions will be collected and posted (unattributed) on Sunday, April 19th. Voting will take place via screened comments. The winning slogan will be posted on the community bio page, and the author (or any email address selected by the author) will get three months of paid time!
(Depending on length, I may even turn it into the comm's main icon.)
But wait, there's more!
The (Absolutely, Positively, In No Way Official) REJECTED Dreamwidth Slogan Contest!
Same rules apply. Comment here with an unofficially REJECTED Dreamwidth slogan. One that's amusing, but which would never ever actually be used. Again, please keep all submissions kid-friendly. As a quick off-the-top-of-my-head example:
Dreamwidth: Because On The Internet, No One Can See Your Seams!
(Get it? Because you can be your dream width? ... Like I said, just something off the top of my head.)
Winner gets three months paid time, and the slogan will be publicly and unofficially rejected in the community bio.
When you're commenting, please mark your submissions as "Unofficial" or "Rejected" so I can be sure to post them in the correct category.
Have fun!
