100 Days of Happiness 2020 - Day 1 - Pros vid!

[byslantedlight]

So... new year, new attempt to find something cheerful in the world! There are lots of things out there, it's not all people being horrible to each other and the general drudgery of meaningless work simply to be able to pay the people who are being horrible... and having had a bit of a low day, despite some fab things in the couple of days before, I thought that maybe some sunshine-yellow posting was in order. One hundred days of it. *g*

But I'm going to start off with something on lj that is amazing me by having had only one comment - from me - even though it seemed to be an inordinately wonderful thing. Is no one reading our Pros comms any more?! tinturtle posted a Pros slash vid to the_safehouse this morning, that has cheered me up every time I watched it today. It's my favourite kind - matching the song to the clips so that it tells its own story, and I think it's really nicely done - it's got fab timing, and the lads are so clearly in love. *g* I'm going to embed it here, because it's on YouTube and I can, but I would strongly recommend going to her own post here not only because you can tell her how fab it is, but also because she's provided download links for it as well as the YouTube link. We can keep it for our very own, and not lose it should disaster strike and it vanish from being online! Hurrah! *g*

Plus - smiling happy sunshine-y lads. Look:

(Here's the original post!)

Okay, I'm feeling better again already. *g* Now please go and comment to this new Pros vidder, because she's doing a brilliant job, and I personally would like her to keep making Pros vids! (Not to mention that she's also the person who put together the amazing list of all Pros vids on YouTube!.

You're right! And now I feel horrible!

Saw the post - along came RL - forgot about the post...

*big sigh*

Good idea with the 100 Days of Happiness though! :-)

[tinturtle]

Do not feel horrible. We're all volunteers here, right?

[firlefanzine.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

But I can guess how much work it is to make a video(I once tried a gif... ;-))!

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm with TinTurtle - don't feel horrible! I know what it's like - I often think I'll go back and comment when I have more time or have thought of something better to say, and then ages later I realise that I never did... But I'm glad you've had a chance to go and comment now, because I do think the vid's worth it... *g*

Let's hope 100 days of happiness can be cheering-upping! *g*

[tinturtle]

Wow. I am delighted that you enjoyed my vid so much, and especially that it was able to brighten a difficult day.

I've found vid making a very absorbing task, full of details to attend to as it is.

I'd love to be able to make vids, but I don't think I have that particular creativity - there's so much magic to combining everything in just the right way to make it sing (so to speak... *g*) And yours is definitely a good one - so much gorgeous B/D slash! *g*

Vids are such lovely nostalgia...

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Nostalgia...? Do you mean for the show, or that vids are a thing of the past that it's nice to see posted again... Forgive me, my wee brain has got confused! *g*

[sallymn.livejournal.com]

Oh definitely the show! I used to read some Pros fanfic in muti-fandom zines (well, I bought and paid for the things for the Blakes 7!!! so was going to read every damn word) so have a vague sense of it...

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Oh cool... You know if you feel like wallowing in more nostalgia, you're very welcome to come and join us... I'm sure I could find you the eps to watch... *vbg*

Thanks for the heads-up! I have difficulty keeping up with LJ these days...

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

I seem to have difficulty keeping up with everything these days - and that's without having dived into all the other forums that people have dived into... and in fact it's one reason why I stuck with lj - so much easier to use the Friends List page to keep up with comms and things...

Glad you get to see the vid now, though! *g*

[sc-fossil.livejournal.com]

Thanks for giving the head's up about the new vid and for posting happiness and the lads. I'm all for that!

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

I think we could all do with some more happiness in the world these days!

[stellar_raven]

Ooooh, this is a good idea! I look forward to reading your "Happiness" posts!

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I think we could all use a bit more happiness around, these days....!

[stellar_raven]

Definitely!
