Posting Remixes

[telesilla]

You may post remixes or links to a remix to the comm as you write them or you may wait until the challenge is over and post a list of links to the remixes you've done for the challenge.

When you post your fic, please add the following information to your header:

Prompt Used: Please list the primary prompt--the one you chose when you decided to write this remix/the one you want the fic tagged with--only. If you list more than one prompt, I will assume that you meant to do several prompts at once and will put the fic under Prompt Twenty-Four (use two or more prompts).

A Link to the original story with author credit. If the person did not offer their fic, but you obtained permission, say so on this line.

So if I remixed one of helens78's fics my header might look like this:

Title: Curious About Leather (the Boom Chicka Wa Wa Remix)
Author telesilla
Fandom: Lotrips
Pairing: Viggo/Bean
Rating: NC-17
Contains: sex between an adult and a teenager.
Original Story: Cuious About Leather by helens78
Primary Prompt: 17

This template is an example only but it's got the information I need.

About warnings: You must include some kind of warning for 1) underage sex, 2) graphic violence, 3) character death, and 4) rape/non-con. If you wish to warn for other things, you may, of course.

You do not have to use the word "warning"; you're welcome to use "contains" or some other wording, provided you let people know if your fic contains any of the above four things. If you feel a warning would spoil your story, you may also choose to gray out your warning/content information line, or you may link to the end of your story and put your warnings/content information there.

If you don't know how to gray out warning/contents texts, that information is here. Thanks to alexseanchai for the link.

Tags: Fic will be tagged by Prompt, Author, Fandom and Remixed Author. So to continue with my example, the above fic would be tagged:

prompt: 17, author: telesilla, remixed: helens78, fandom: lotrips

About Fic titles. You don't have to do the Story Name Here (remix name here) thing if you don't want to.

Instructions for graying out warning text so's it's skippable by screenreaders.

Thanks! I gray things out, but I couldn't remember where I first saw the process written out.

Question: Should we tag for just our primary prompt, or for all prompts used in a remix? The rules here make it sound like the former, but most of the fics I've seen posted so far are doing the latter, so I'm a bit confused.

Should we alter the header if we're posting a fill for prompt 29? Because the remixed fic won't have a fandom (being original fic), just the original.
