12 Years of The Buffyverse

Jun 06 2009 09:17 pm   #1nmcil
Hard to believe that we are now in the 12 year of our LOVE AFFAIR with The Buffyverse  -  My love, appreciation and interest is as strong today as when I first watched this fantastic and powerful TV series. 

First Episode:  3/10/97  Last Episode:  5-20/03

I want to invite everyone to help me celebrate and pay tribute on this 12th year anniversary of The Buffyverse - I am creating images for all the character, but with special attention to Spike and Buffy because these two characters represented the struggle of making the journey to find our own inner strengths and hero/heroine.  PLEASE, if any of the most excellent FF writers here would like to help my efforts by doing some small or long work to go with some of the images, I would be so very happy to have your work combined with the images.
All will be posted at my Whedon World Gallery www.whedonworld.com   with links back here or any sites you want.  I hope that some of you will join me with this project.

You can see my first efforts at my Flickr home page (look in the Buffy Gallery 4 set as well) - I will be posting other characters soon as well.   http://www.flickr.com/photos/nmcil/
Here is one sample - special tribute to Spike and Whedonesque.  This image is also done without whedonesque title.

Cool idea!  I'll keep checking to see what you and other creative people come up with.  (Wow, 12 yrs.?  It shows how powerful BtVS and AtS are that after more than a decade we still keep it as an important part of our lives.  But it isn't just the shows, it is the great community of fans that post fanfic and do forums that also make it all so special to me.)

Here is one of the latest of the Buffy 12 Years images - lots more were added at my Flickr site:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/nmcil/    Looking for writers to create stories, essay or even just their thoughts about The Buffyverse and ways that  this awesome series effected the viewers and the still very large fandom.  Please take a look at the images and see if any one of them would fit with any subject of interest to you to write about.  If you have any particular character or combination I would be happy to make an image.
