It seems like from the notice posted on both archives that it is more than just the funds at issue, is Sher willing to continue being the admin?

These are two of my favorite archives and I would hate to see them go the way of the Silver Snitch

From what I heard from her, Yes she is willing to continue the site if she has enough donations to continue it. However, I think your best bet is to ask Sher directly just to be sure. Thanks for coming by!

Since I am so broke, I will offer some custom cover art, icons, and wallpapers. You can look at my fanart here or here.

Is there anyway she could add on some people to help move it to AO3 through Open Doors? Honestly, it seems the best option to make sure its preserved. Because even if she gets the funds for it now does not mean this won't happen again and again in the future.

From what the note said there needs to be around 8,000 links put in one by one and while it sounds like a lot of work I am sure there are people willing to do it to keep from losing the archive.

Sher said, that she would love some help. However, she can't do it alone, because she has MS, and it's a lot of stories that she would have to individually import into A03.

In the end, she would love the help and if you guys would rather, you can go ahead and contact her and see if she wants to do that. In the end I just want to help, so anyway either by donating money or getting her some much needed volunteers (and I would volunteer but I just don't have the time at the moment) By all means go ahead and contact her and volunteer!

Sorry to butt in, but is there a way to contact her, I wouldn't mind helping move stories to AO3. Thanks!

I will donate cover art up for auction. Anyone who bids will get a cover for whatever fic they choose - be it their own or someone elses. Crossovers are fine, too.
