TACS' Artwork in Side By Side Archive

Several artworks by TACS were published in the old K/S e-zine Side By Side. I am currently working with Open Doors to import what's left of the archive into AO3, including artworks. Unfortunately a lot of artwork is no longer available via the Wayback Machine and even after much searching I have been unable to recover all of TACS' contributions. Most were uploads of work previously published in various printzines.

Given that we are doing this import through Open Doors and following all the relevant guidelines re permissions etc, I was wondering if anyone with access to these works would be interested in making them available for inclusion in the AO3 import? (I can provide a list, there are about a dozen all up.) If this is inappropriate please let me know, I thought it couldn't hurt to ask. Sahviere (talk) 23:32, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

If you have a list of the zines, we can look through the ones we have and pull them. MeeDee (talk) 00:20, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

If there was more than one calendar I'm afraid I don't know what year was published, but the e-zine copies went up in late 2004 to early 2005. Sahviere (talk) 01:34, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Please PM me so we can work out logistics. I;ll strike off the ones I find above. MeeDee (talk) 06:16, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Is the calendar this one: https://fanlore.org/wiki/TACS_a_k/s_calendar ? --MPH (talk) 12:34, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Answered my own question: it is. :-) See the note here. --MPH (talk) 12:41, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Yes, sorry I missed that. I'd use the pictures from that page, but the ones included in Side By Side, as far as I remember, were full artwork scans and I'd like to match that if I can. Sahviere (talk) 12:47, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Yes, those are not good images at all, but knowing what physical fanwork they are from helps in the hunt for a physical copy or better scan. I'll help poke about. :-) MPH (talk) 13:04, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

I can't believe you got all of the artwork, this is amazing and such a huge help. Thank you so much. Sahviere (talk) 23:26, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

Happy to help and to pool our resources! MPH (talk) 00:55, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
