Tomorrow morning's Seed Account sale

[denise]

Our second batch of 100 Seed Accounts will be going on sale at 9AM EDT (1PM GMT) -- we've scripted that, since neither mark nor I will be awake for it, so consider this your warning dw_news post!

Something I forgot to mention in the last dw_news post: if you previously had paid time, and you purchase a Seed Account in this sale, you can open up a support request in the Account Payments category, and we're happy to transfer your paid time to another account for you.

And thanks, everyone, for supporting Dreamwidth. We couldn't be doing this without you.

What's the difference between a paid and seed account?

I'd like to get a paid account, mainly to get more icon spaces, but, like many, is not the best time. Well, hopefully if other people get seed accounts and such, DW will continue to expand and get better, even while the economy is not so good.

Paid and seed accounts

A seed account has all the same features as paid premium, it just doesn't expire. They're doing the sale to raise seed capital to cover the start-up and operating costs for the first year. But paid premium is more sustainable for the site in the long term, and is the same for the user in terms of features and stuff.

Ah... Thanks for the explanation. :-)
