This is a black and white picture, and a variation on the header. Harry and Severus are framed in a Polaroid-like photographed, taped to the banner. Both have their eyes open and Harry's glasses are not featured.

Come and join SnarryBANG! and Reverse SnarryBANG!

Bangs are a collaboration; a fic writer or fanartist submits an idea, and someone likes that idea enough to claim the opportunity to work with the first creator!

Signing up means that you can submit art and/or fic, and that you will have access to claims. Not signing up means no access to claims. You can both submit and claim, and you do not have to submit something in order to claim something else!

What are the criteria?
- Fanfic: 3000 words minimum, must be beta-ed.
- Art: one work + one banner/cover minimum. What type of art? Traditional: drawing, painting... or non-conventional: pottery, felt art, fanmixes (6 pieces of music + cover), embroidery, dollhouses, podfic, original music... All visual art must be accompanied with a description.

Here are the options: This is both a regular and a reverse bang, meaning you can submit art and/or fic for claims.
1/ You can go the traditional route: submit your work and let people claim!
2/ You can already have a partner in mind, in which case both of you must fill the sign-up form and let me know who your partner is in a pre-arranged team.

The schedule:
Signups & submissions open until May 21.
Claims: right after.
Works: to be submitted by July 24th on AO3.
Posting: Starting on Harry's birthday, therefore start July 31st!

Check out the FAQ on Tumblr (open in a browser window, not the app) or DW, and if you still have questions just send an ask or leave a message on DW! You an also reach me by leaving a message under this post.

Spread the word!
