Buy this book!

Quoting awelkin:

scieppan is pretty much responsible for the putting together of the document, as well as this web banner. In it you will find art work by animekatie and minoukatze, poetry by kit-the-brave, and stories by jiminyc, ashtur, in-the-blue, h311ybean, bucketgirl, ladyvorkosigan, and yours truly.

All of the money cleared goes directly to chrysantza as she fights her brave battle with breast cancer. Also, any of the creators above could probably be convinced to autograph the anthology should you run into them....

And just a wee reminder:

OK, done and done. I may give it to my mother, a two-time survivor.

These fine people got my mother through the aftermath. I highly recommend them.

Book ordered. Breast Cancer Site button doesn't seem to be working for me, though--I keep getting either an error message or some other indication that it's stuck.

[sff-corgi.livejournal.com]

You have bought some excellent writing, sir.

Button what? [grumbles, goes to kick the HTML in a sensitive spot]
*sputters*
WhaddayaMEAN, 500 and 503? [glares at errant webserver]
OK, if it's gonna be cranky: You can click on it linked from The Hunger Site, The Animal Rescue Site, The Rainforest Site, The Child Health Site or... drat. I can't remember the book one's URL. The Literacy Site? Anyway, it's good to click all of them.

Well, that's weird. The Cafepress package arrived, with the correct packing slip--and instead of Crystal Vision, something called The Complete Secrets of a Gymnast. (A yellow burst proclaims it "SPORTS BOOK of the YEAR," and the back cover includes--among other blurbs--one theoretically from Elle magazine, assuring me that "You will not leave the book from your hands, guaranteed.") I've emailed Cafepress; presumably some very confused sports fan just got a copy of Crystal Vision.

[sff-corgi.livejournal.com]

I mentioned your mixup to one of the Crystal Vision contributors, and there was chagrin all around. Have you heard from CafePress yet?

[qadgop.livejournal.com]

Oh! Yes! Sorry!

I got an email back from them within a day; they say they're mailing me a copy of the right book this time. They also said I could keep the sports book; I guess they don't want Secrets of a Gymnast either. :-)

Hey, could you e-mail me the directions for that bit of HTML? I'm going to try to put the buttons in my sticky post.

[sff-corgi.livejournal.com]

Which bit? The Breast Cancer site button?

[annechen-melo.livejournal.com]

Yes, please and thank you!

OK, let's see what I can get in here under the character limit

[sff-corgi.livejournal.com]

To post the buttons like they're formatted here:

To post them in a straight row:

Mind you, this isn't the order they're displayed in at the site[s]....

Whups. Should put centering codes around the row format, probably. I forgot.

P.S.

[sff-corgi.livejournal.com]

Meant to mention - for some reason, they didn't make the buttons with transparent corners - they're white. So against a dark background, like my blog style, they look dorky. The one in my post, I fiddled and hosted, but these are straight from the site itself.

I can give you code to display them on a white background, if you'd like. See what it looks like for you, then just ask. :)

[sff-corgi.livejournal.com]

Seems to be working now.

[awelkin.livejournal.com]

THANKS for spreading the word.

[sff-corgi.livejournal.com]

Errrr... that was s'posed to be a hug-emoticon....

[sff-corgi.livejournal.com]

Yay, I got to place my order!
