Hello all!

So new gal on the bridge. Have been lurking around here for some time now and I noticed a post by PHOENIXROSE in one of the other threads today with a banner to use to promote the upcoming Serenity 'versary. So I snatched the tagline 'write letters. buy the movie. do the job' and made a bunch of banners to be used nowhere and everywhere.















Hope they're ok and that you can use them. I want to contribute the best I can, sitting here in faraway Sweden where, if I mention Firefly people just go 'huh?' and look at me weirdly. *sigh* Anyway, I'm also considering maybe running a small add in the 'Metro' paper here in south of Sweden on friday to make Serenity heard. Checked the prices and it looks pretty ok, so I'm checking out the thread about that :)

Anyway, glad to be a part of this community and finally get somewhere to let my Browncoat within come out and get some air :D

You were busy trying to get yourself lit on fire. It happens.


Those are so cool! Welcome to the 'verse!

Gosh, we have so many talented artists here - it's always nice to see some more!

Huh? What is this Firefly thing you speak of?

Kidding! HEY! You are not alone! The Firefly underground and overground is here with you. All the many thousands of us without borders, just different login names, and your banners are magnificent! Double wow!
My only suggestion is that you include the link for the 'versary info on them.

Thank you YinYang, Penguin, and pizmobeach! :D

*grin* glad that they are flip-worthy! Expect more in the coming days! I'm also spreading the word like a crazed idiot on other forums. People are starting to think I've lost my mind *lol* ;)

*lol* You sounds like the people around me ;)

Right, knew I forgot something when making them. Although, if one is smart, just use the url below/above the sig and you're good to go. But the next batch will have the adress included, promise :)

Welcome TheDana,
The banners are beautiful. The hardest part is chosing one. I think, Vinterdraken, is from Sweden. I know its a large country, but atleast there are 2 of you spreading the word.

Thank you, oh and you can call me just Dana. Had to add 'the' since 'dana' was taken.. Oh well, can't win them all ;)

Anyway, thanx for the banner comment. You can always rotate them if you have a hard time choosing
I do think you're right. His/her nick sounds very swedish so I think so. Question is just which end of this long country this person resides

Dana,
I've seen Vinterdraken on several treads. He did say that he was from Sweden on the Browncoat Singles thread. I just replied to let him know that a fellow countryman is on the site.

You can go to the thread by this link:

TheDana ~

Your banners are just GORGEOUS! Love them all! Current Browncoats, and Browncoats-yet-to-be, thank you. I'm sure that some good word spreadin' and recruitin' will be happenin'.

You're an angel for taking the time to create these beautiful, spirited and informative banners. So glad you've stepped out of "lurkdom" and into the light.

Keep up the great work!

This one is my favorite.
Thanks for making so many shiny banners! I was totally stumped as to what to do after I made the one.

Hay here,
Thank you so much, makes me happy to hear and means alot especially after seeing what you can create yourself. Those posters - breathtaking! How do you do the 'striped' look on the pics? it's a mystery to me.

Anything I can contribute, I will. Going to make another batch, hopefully later on today. Lurkdom was interesting but I was starting to feel stupid *grin* besides, now I get to talk to all you fine people

Thank you. I actually just redid that from an old set I had for my gallery when promoting the screencaps from Firefly. Thought it would fit very well with this.

Sometimes fanart can make that to you, take away all other inspiration from your fingers. You know what you want but you can't do it.

Hay hello there fellow country man. Got a bit curious considering I haven't met one other person who enjoyed the verse (except my mom, who've I've converted completely *grin*)

Me, I'm from Malmö

Oh, and I made another banner! See below!
I've also converted the layouts of my two biggest sites (those mentioned in my sig) so that people can't miss what is going on and how to join in!

It does, it just looses the '/' in the url of my signature.. don't know why, but add a slash at the end of the url and the gallery appears

My goodness, TheDana you do shiny work. Literally.

Beautiful banners. Between you and PR and the Browncoat's very own 11th Hour.. we are a talented bunch let me tell you!

Thank you for all your wonderful work to share to make the 'Versary a success.
Talk about bringing something to the table upon arrival.

Oh, and you need your browncoat! A gesture of family and including.

Thank you! *blushes* And I'm happy to see you're wearing one. The choice isn't very suprising considering your nick

I agree, seen some really great work around here. and I'm definitly a fan of 11th Hour! Those posters just blows my mind!

Well, I couldn't very well show up empty handed, now could I?

*looks at the browncoat* ooo, it's so pretty. *touches it* and it feels so nice. *puts it on* OMG! It's so comfy. It's official, I'm never taking this off! Even if the sun is shining and it's 40+ Celcius degrees. I'm gonna live and die in this thing

Thank you

Ooh! Like the banners! They're really well done. I especially like the picture of River you used for the River one.

That coat looks mighty fine on you too

Thank you :) They're so much fun making too! It's a challenge to have that much text and still get a good sig out of it

Adore that River pic too, if you check the layout thread, had to use it for one of the headers as well ;)

Why thank you darlin'. I'm loving it!


And I come bearing gifts. Got another banner finished. Another Mal focused one. Also have two icons you can use if you want on another forum or your LJ :D
