Harmony refers to the popular fan fiction and shipping community that imagines a romantic relationship between Harry Potter and Hermione Granger, two beloved characters from J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series.
While the original books depict them as close friends who share a strong bond, many fans reimagine their relationship as something deeper, exploring themes of love, loyalty, and the complexities of growing up in the magical world.
This pairing captivates fans with its potential for both drama and heartfelt moments, fueling countless stories and creative interpretations within the fandom.

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

General Rules
-
Be wary of any person initiating conversations with you privately via direct message. Many scammers use this method to coerce money out of individuals. Any work and conversation between requesters and editors should be posted publicly in this forum, for transparency and accountability.
-
Heads up! There are many free apps available like Remini that 'restore and colorize photos' that you can do yourself in one click, but they are of questionable and often inferior quality.
Requester Rules:
-
Upload photo you want editing on and describe as specifically as possible what work you want done. (higher quality image upload the better: a proper scan or photo with no blur or glare)
-
Make it clear whether you want this done for free or if you intended to tip the editor(s) who work on your image. Editors who put watermarks on free requests must remove the watermark at your behest. If it is a paid request, the mandatory watermark will be removed after tipping the editor.
-
Give adequate time for editors to do their work. Even though some jobs can be done quickly, you don't want to pick the fastest rush job either.
-
Be sure to say thank you and let people know if the request has been fulfilled.
Editor Rules:
-
Upload restored image and provide hyperlink to your tipjar if applicable (Paypal, Ko-Fi, etc., keep text short and to the point, no begging)
-
Watermarks required on posts where the requester explicitly mentions payment. Watermarks optional on 'free' requests, but you must give the edit away for free if OP wants it.
-
No 1-click AI edits. Respect the craft and respect the photos submitted here. Please focus on high quality edits. Habitual low effort/quality work as a result of 1-click edits using AI tools like Remini, Stable Diffusion, auto-colorizers, with no human input just to capitalize on tip money can result in a ban.
