To me, what makes the HSA and Cassie sections more interesting/more in need of their own sections, is that, though not cannon, they are based on things pulled directly from the series. Though there are some great fanfic videos that connect to the storyline, they are made with new characters that have no direct ties to the actual storyline (does that make sense?).

They also seem to be the longest running, original fanfic areas. Maybe that alone should get them a little extra credit!

I assume on this type of forum, like most others, there is not a number of pages/areas that you are limited to. Why not just give the very active fanfic series their own little subsections? If they become inactive after such-and-such a time, they would go live in the inactive file, perhaps.

I'm not saying every fanfic area that comes by should have their very own area. Start off with the obviously active ones, that have regular contriubutors and a regular stream of videos (one section for all Cassies worked before). Keep a section for new fanfic. Once something becomes very popular, it's fans can request that it be moved to it's own subsection.

If you guys listen to Mixed Media's 4/10 show I called in to discuss the reorganization of the Fan Creation Section. Out of that conversation Miles talked about the website redesign that is scheduled for June/July. Each fan vid maker will get a profile that sounds an awful lot like the livevideo.com profile where each vid maker can have their own forum on their profile. The call is about 90 minutes into the show.

i personally think that in the new fanfic section there is just too many places to put things.
It's a nice idea, but the more places to put things, the more confussing results from it.
I think in depth and new releases should be comined. In development should be called "Need Help With Videos?" or "Fan Video Support" and Fan lobby should stay the same.

After getting familiar with the new design, I have one suggestion. Split the FanFic Lobby into two forums: one for non-video LG15-related things, another for non-LG15 related things. Maybe put the non-LG15 related things forum in the Community section?

I like that "Thor's Hammer" horse that looks like a jigsaw puzzle. I think we need more horses like that. That's my 2 cents. Wink

Oh, and merging "new releases" with "In depth" might make sense. So far, I have only been looking at the "new releases."

EDIT: Okay, I went and took a look at the "In depth" section, and I can see how posts about newly released videos need their own section, so scratch the combo idea, and just keep the jigsaw horse.

I would split the fan-fic section up into something like:
In Development
Cassies (so they're all together, or you could just have itscassie here and put the other cassies in "other LG-related..." below)
HSA
FacilityJ
Maddison Atkins (assuming that it turns out to be an ARG)
Other LG-related fan-fics
Non-LG fan-fic
Other Creative Media

I think that each ARG should have its own section, though this does seem like quite a few. Are there other ARGs that I haven't listed?

This is just one chickadee's humble opinion. Wink

Well, as far as I can tell, the Maddison Atkins storyline seems to be associated with True Free Will and Hymn Of One. All three of these seem to place some importance on their MySpace pages and should be grouped together, since there is interaction between all 3 of them.

silverblue, my understanding is that HoO is, but that the myspace page wasn't...but will be, in that they didn't own it, but do now...

Did that make sense? <rueful grin>

I think that BK plans to combine them all, he's just too busy today to get to it
