Woohoo, sign ups for July have only just been opened and the Matchmaker Challenge is already a succes! The first art was posted earlier this week and there are more matches getting ready for their dates \o/
There are still fics available for artists who are looking for an inspirational challenge: Sign up for a Speed Date or a Blind Date with an author here and receive a mystery short story to create art for!

Spread the word! Here's a promo-banner you can use:


And here's a code for the banner with additional text and links:

You can make whatever you want: a story-banner, a scene illustration, an artist’s impression; any visual your muse comes up with, in any artmedium. In the spirit of <a href="http://quicky-bang.livejournal.com">Quicky_Bang</a> the <a href="http://quicky-bang.livejournal.com/8725.html">Matchmaker Challenge</a> has a short turn-around to avoid procrastination;) You can choose a BLIND date (give preferences for fic, get two weeks for arting) or a SPEED date (pick one of three random prospects, get three weeks for arting) There is a limited supply of stories, so first come, first serve! <a href="http://quicky-bang.livejournal.com/8725.html">Sign ups are open all of July</a> or until all the stories have found a match, whichever comes first. (You won’t receive an assignment until your start date; I will set aside stories in order of sign ups) <a href="http://quicky-bang.livejournal.com/8725.html">JOIN IN, SIGN UP!</a></b></center>
