This is just a heads-up to let you know we are moving forward with changing how the tags are used and displayed in the community. You will notice the sidebar is in flux. I hope to have all existing tags converted by tomorrow. We will also be going back and adding Band Name tags to all posts. A little guide for the sidebar:
!! = Special Posts
CH = Character(s)
VM = Vidmaker
ModPost = well, Mod Post
(and very soon)
Band = Band Name
In addition, I modified the code to only show tags with more than two uses. This will reduce the amount of scroll on the page. I hope this helps everyone find things more easily. Of course, this means getting used to tagging posts a bit differently, but that's okay. Feedback is welcome as always.

MOD POST: Layout Update

Hey everybody, this is mostly a heads-up that the layout is changed. I fiddled, and I hope you like it. Brighter and bigger, if that was possible. If anything is quirky for you, just comment with your browser info, OS info, etc., and I will look into it.

Also, here are some promotional things you guys can use around Livejournal.

MOD POST: Layout Update!

Hey everybody! I was tired of not being able to customize the layout to my liking within S2 (so we could keep using tags), as well as, tired of the 'spaces in tag names' bug not being fixed. So, I bought a paid account for the community and spiffed things up. All tags will work now because I wrote a custom code for that part of the layout.
Let me know what you think! =D

MOD POST: Tags!

Hey everybody, in case you missed it or do not have LJ News on your flist, LiveJournal pushed some code live yesterday to use Tags on entries. To me, they are like a combination of Memories and Friends Groups. Basically, when you post an entry, you can assign a "tag" to it (i.e., VM Review, VM Video, Spoilers!!!). Then, if you want to easily see your posts with a specific tag, you just go to http://www.livejournal.com/users/myname/tag/tagname and it will show you only entries with that tag!
Way cool, huh?
I am in the process of creating a tag for all vidmakers. This way, if someone wants to easily find ALL of your vid posts, they can go to http://www.livejournal.com/community/neptune_video/tag/roniabirk. Cool, huh?
So, if you have questions, please let me know in the comments here!
Edit: Interesting. Okay, so there will be some changes to the layout because Tags are not supported in S1. Also, I *believe* I have managed to put tags on all video posts. So! When you post a new video, be sure to add your username as the tag. Thanks! When you view an entry page, it will display the tags (if any) that are assigned to that entry.
BONUS: This will make it a lot easier in the future to find your posts when you need to update the download links! =D
Example Tag: I post a Lilly/Logan video that is for the monthly theme and fulfills a request. My tags would be:
Separate tag words with commas. All pairings are listed alphabetically.
