As you've probably seen, because I've been buried in mcshep_match entries for the last couple of weeks (fun though that is) we made it to the target on the fundraising!

Thank you SO much to everyone who donated, offered help or bought from the Artfire site. (Everything ordered from the site in July has now been sent out, btw, just give it time to arrive from the UK.) You're all fantastic, as is everyone who made suggestions or helped spread the word. Thanks to all of you the domain name has been renewed already, the outstanding bills paid and the hosting is covered for a little over two years. Phew.

As soon as I'm back from my expedition to almost-maybe-possibly-Wales (it's on the border and debatable) I will put up the posts on the LJ and IJ comms so that new fandoms and accounts etc. can be requested. There's not much point putting them up now and immediately disappearing for a week *g*

Thanks again everyone!

Hi, this is the Insanejournal community for the Archive at the End of the Universe.

Thanks to everyone who made suggestions or shared their opinions on the Livejournal community, there is a plan in place to make sure The Archive can keep going.

Coming up soon there will be posts on this community to request new fandoms or pairings to be added, and to request invites or report problems. Feel free to use the comments to this post in the meantime if you need anything.

There are a couple of minor technical things I would like to be able to fix in time, but nothing that affects use of the site, uploading or reading. If you think you could help, especially if you know your way around eFiction, I'd love to hear from you. No long term commitment is needed if you don't want, I'd just like some advice or help.

The other thing is that we are having a fundraising drive to ensure The Archive's future that runs until the end of the month. You can read the full details and see the progress on the Livejournal community here.
