Great that you've already gotten started! The image issue is definitely a problem for meta hosted in places that host natively (like Tumblr). The FAQ was added to this month to note that Squidge.org offers free image hosting for fandom-related content.
And yes, I was surprised by the same thing after the first few years of this challenge -- for one I wrote much more than I remembered. And for another, as you said, all the pieces add up.
I agree that getting started can be the most tedious part of the process. But especially once on starts to see progress, I think it adds to the motivation to get more done.
I struggled with how best to organize this, and ended up going with loose conglomerations by themes rather than chronological order of posts or chronologically by canon events.
This is really interesting! I am going to be using this for a future check-in question.
And yes, it's an excellent point about not being a perfectionist about it all. Most of the time the things that worry us are things others don't even notice. And ultimately, getting a lot accomplished will be its own reward.
