Um, personally I'd rather not address AU/AR issues since they seem to be a hot button right now and the defintions aren't really agreed upon. I'd rather do something everyone understands and likes, is all, what with all the CANON ONLY or whatnot people out there. But working art and fic in together sounds awesome, if you can get enough artists to work with us lowly, prolific ficcers! I don't know why, but I have the impression that art is much more difficult to produce than fic. *shrugs*
