June Something Day 17

Day 17: Do you prefer art, fic, or vids?  Why?  Bonus: If someone was to give you a fandom gift, what format would it be?

I don't have the aptitude or the skill to create art or a vid, so if we're talking about something I've made then it has to be a fic.

When it comes to gifts, I honestly don't have a preference. I have a handful of fics gifted to me (birthday presents and responses to my prompts) and a wonderful desktop wallpaper that's cycled onto my monitor on the regular, and a podfic of one of my first fics which blew my mind. Anything that someone has made with either me or one of my fics in mind is a marvel and I absolutely treasure them.

That said, I sincerely hope my wife writes another fic for my birthday this year. <3

I did a vid ONCE in like 2011, and will never do it again. It's FAR too time consuming, and I just don't have the patience for it.

I didn't know that!

I imagine it to be really hard to sync up moving images eg to music. I have rhythm, but I don't have the dexterity to get things down to the microsecond.

Now that I think about it, I've done TWO. Both were Stargateland challenges, where one was transforming a song (which I did "Keller" to the tune of "Jolene" with McShep images) and the second was turning Stargate videos into "an evil movie trailer" or something like that. I've got both of them still, but they're in Flash video and haven't been changed to MPG/HTML5 video. One day...

I would love to see them!
