What the fuck?!

[beck]

So I'm looking at the awards to *coughugh*Nanashi*coughugh* and why don't they make awards that kinda go with the pairing the fic is? (if its called for) Why are they using for the non-yaoi award 1xR fic (which how does it feel blkros to have that under your belt now? ^_~) an incest pic??? Out of all the non-yaoi pics out there to use and they use THAT??!! (I don't mind 3xC but I think that was a bit uncalled for to use in this case) Then they can't even spell non-yaoi right, is it me or does it say yuri?

I think it would only make sense.

yea, you are right about the category, not being necessarily romantic, so I yea, I guess that's not really a point.

I think the banners should reflect the story or at least look like effort has been put into each one. I think what it might be, is that the banner makers don't want to look through non yaoi art so they just go to one or two sites, pick out a nono-yaoi pic they can stomach and then use it.

Oh, I agree. I think the banner makers ought to at least read the winning fics and put more effort into the banners. The writers deserve as much. (But then, where are you going to find a 3x11 picture? That was the pairing in my winning fic, a couple of years ago.)

Heh. I don't even like the term non-yaoi used to describe het. Non- makes me think something is missing or lacking. I mean, is a woman a non-man?

I actually agree with the non part. I mean, I never thought of it that way.

I prefer to use het myself and it seems to have caught on and is being used more now than non-yaoi which is good I think, because it does make much more sense and plus it just sounds better too.
