Additionally as part of 3weeks4dreamwidth, wanted to draw everyone's attention to my call for giftees as part of the Dreamwidth points fundraiser. We need people who would like paid features to step forward! Leave a comment indicating you'd like some Dreamwidth points, or mention what you'd specifically like the points for. (That way I can allot points based on desired purchases). Comments to the linked post are screened.

Please also promote this offer in your account and communities if you're not interested in paid features yourself! People must comment by May 14.
