Week 16 - April 17th to April 23rd

    Moderator Notes:
    Still looking for some help:
  • Take a moment to leave feedback. This is your chance to tell me what you like and don't like and most likely it will get changed. Is the format confusing? Is it readable? Should everything go under a lj-cut? Let me know what you think.
  • Look over the list of communities and the list of fandoms. Let me know about anything that might be missing.
  • Come up with questions that might need to be answered by a FAQ.
  • slidellra has made some wonderfully beautiful modly C6D icons - check them out! atlantisgrrl has offered to help with other icons. Thank you so much to both of them for their generosity.
  • The community needs a banner, something that shows off the diversity of the C6D fandoms. Again, if someone would be willing to donate the time and talent to make it, I would greatly appreciate it.

    Please feel free to contact me at c6d_weekly at livejournal dot com or akaminechan at gmail dot com.
