I wrote a fic for @littlefingies for donating to the OFMD Craft Fair.

Summary:

The crew are coming to visit, and Ed is grappling with things left unsaid. When he has a moment alone with Jim, he thinks now might be the perfect time to make amends.

STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES (1966-1969) 1.25 • “The Devil In The Dark”

[ferventrabbit]

UPDATED APRIL 2025 (previous version | oldest version)

the links broke again so this time we're trying the tumblr image links and hope they don't spontaneously break (as has been known to happen) 🤞

Are you frustrated you can't leave second kudos on AO3? or third kudos? or whatever-who's-counting kudos?

Well, have I got the html for you!

Plop any of the codes in a comment (by copy&pasting the code under Keep reading - scroll to the bottom of the post) to make an author's day and show your appreciation!

bonus: cookie kudos

SCROLL DOWN TO GET THE CODES (under the cut)!

Feel free to spread and use these as much as you like, however you like!

[ if you enjoy them, consider supporting my ko-fi ]

I've received a lot of good suggestions for more variants but can't keep up with them all, so here are some resources to make it easier to make your own.

PSD for easily editable text (there is a color fill layer for adding a bit of white where the stroke doesn't cover small holes. I recommend cropping excess empty space out before exporting as PNG)

and here are PNGs of the kudos button for any other editing needs, with and without white stroke:

Use your favorite image host, copy the direct image link, insert it between the quotation marks in the code, add alt text, and you're ready!

<img src="[DIRECT IMAGE LINK]" alt="[ALT TEXT]">

(you can add any image or gif to a comment like this as long as you have the direct image link btw)

if you post your kudos images, I'd be grateful if you'd link back to this post so other people can find the resources too 💗

When you paste into the AO3 comment box, make sure the quotation marks are straight:

NOT curly:

simply deleting and re-typing them in the ao3 comment box should fix this!

Many of the old image links from the original post are broken. I cannot fix them. Please use the new codes going forward ❤️

It’s been 19 thrilling days, but the OFMD Craft Fair is officially CLOSED! 

What started off as a simple idea (“what if we did something crafty to raise money for trans kids?”) blossomed into something greater than any of our wildest expectations. 

For those who like numbers, here are some fun ones for you:

1: the number of auctions we planned to hold

2: the number of flash auctions we ended up holding in addition to that

156: the number of people who donated crafts

214: the number of listings at the start of the fair

503: the number of listings at the end

842: the number of people who placed bids or made donations

$5,000: our original fundraising goal

$95,021: the amount we ultimately through auctions alone, all to benefit the Campaign for Southern Equality’s Trans Youth Emergency Project

At least $105,000: the amount we’ve raised so far through our donation form

Those numbers are all phenomenal, mind-blowing, even. But this auction’s success is about more than just numbers. It’s about a group of people who saw an opportunity to help and grabbed it. It’s about people stepping in to help any way they could. It’s about people sharing the excitement, boosting each other up, spreading the word of the event so that more and more people could join in. 

It’s about people coming together as a collective, because while individually we may be capable of small change, together, we can do something truly incredible. 

Thank you to every single person who was a part of the craft fair, whether it was through crafting, bidding, or spreading the hype. None of this would have been possible without you.

So… now what? The craft fair team is in fulfillment mode, working to make sure everyone is paid up and receives their items. We very much appreciate your patience through this process; as a reminder, it’s still just six of us, and we promise we’re working as fast as we can!

Additional donations We know some fans are keeping the generosity going and offering commissions to raise even more money, to which we say, FAB! You can continue to make donations through this link: https://bit.ly/OFMDcraft We will get a final count of the amount we raised through additional donations next week, but the form will stay open for now.

More crafts, please! While there will NOT be another craft fair, we’re gathering information from our crafters so you know where to go to continue to shop their wares or seek them out for commissions. More to come! 

Questions? As always, reach out to us at ofmdcraftfair@gmail.com if you have any questions along the way.

Thanks again, crew. Our family, our fight!
