[Er, hi. I feel like I"m de-lurking here. Eep.]

I wouldn't worry about spamming folks. I think I may have subscribed to you on AO3 when I found your account there, despite there not being much fic or anything, just in hope that one day there would be. Given the supreme awesomeness of the FanFictionDownloader plug-in for Calibre and how well it works with AO3 (downloading not just the fic, but also all useful metadata), I by far prefer reading fic that I grab from AO3-- then I read the fic on iPad or Kindle or whatever. So whenever I see fic I like, I tend to look and see if it or other stories by an author I like are on AO3 and if they aren't but they have some sort of presence there, I'll subscribe in hope that one day they'll put their stuff there.

So, anyway, I imagine there are others like me who saw the updates and thought "yay, now it's easy for me to grab all her fic to read and/or archive!"

I'm surprised there aren't more and better skins for AO3, but I haven't looked lately. I know I tweaked one mildly early on that works for me, but most of the time I'm only there to search for fic and then I download anything I want to read.

I know someone remarked somewhere that there's a way to indicate art is cover art on AO3, but at a glance I'm not seeing it. The Calibre Fanfic plug-in can grab any images in fic and can be set to assume the first image is cover art, which works great much of the time. (Sometimes if people have moved fic over from LJ or someplace and they include userhead icons, I'll wind up with a userhead as cover art! Aiee! There are ways to fix that, thank goodness.)
