How to Review Stories/Art you liked

Why reviewing Fanfic or Fanart ?

There’s a popular beliefs in all the fandoms that alive, creative and successful ml (especially if it’s dedicated to an exclusive pairing like ours) owe their success to the number and to quality of the fanfic writers and artists whom serving in their rank…

That’s probably true, but it’s a vision which is obviously underestimating the positive and invaluable contribution of the other members.  To attract talented writers/artists, to keep them productive as well as to help new ones to emerge you need a fertile ground. And this fertile ground is named REVIEW.

How to Get an Avatar

Those avatars on the comments and in the forums are pretty slick, right? It’s very easy to get one.

  1. Our avatars are hosted by a site called Gravatar. You need an account at Gravatar to get an avatar here, so sign up.
  2. When you sign up, make sure you sign up with the same email that you use for your Boxer and Rice account. The email syncs up the accounts and allows Boxer and Rice to see your avatar.  (The email is case-sensitive.  As Revu recommends, “Your best bet is to use all lower case for both registrations.”)
  3. Once you’re signed up and logged in, upload your chosen avatar. Boxer and Rice will accept all avatars regardless of rating, and we will allow all avatars up to 80×80pixels, the maximum size allowed on Gravatar.

And that’s all; simple as that.

How to Submit Encyclopedia Articles

Encyclopedia articles are a more free-form submission than the others.  It does not have a template and can really take on any form you want, within reason.

Text-Based Articles

  1. Title your article appropriately and make sure it’s informative.
  2. Copy and paste your article into the body.
  3. Optional: If you would like to add images to your article, please upload your image in the Upload box below.  Give it a title, and maybe a description, then upload it.  When it’s successfully uploaded, make sure that in the “Show” option, “Thumbnail” is selected, and that in the “Link to” option, “File” is selected.  Send to editor and drag to where you would like it.
  4. Select the appropriate categories from the category list.  Make sure the Encyclopedia box is selected, then check the correct category.
  5. Scroll further down the page to find the “Optional Excerpt” section and enter in a short summary of your article.  Your thesis statement would work, or even the first few sentences of the article.
  6. Once that is complete, click on “Publish.”

Single Image Articles

  1. Title your articles appropriately.
  2. Upload your images in the Upload box below.  Add a title, and you may add a description if you wish.  Once it’s uploaded, make sure that the “Show” option is “Full size,” and that the “Link to” is “None.”  Send it to the editor then.
  3. Scroll down to the “Optional Excerpt” box and add an appropriate, short summary.
  4. Click “Publish.”
