ADMIN: layout/ upcoming challenge
Hi everyone
I must apologise for not being an active admin the past month or so. It seems like ages since I posted the poll for the community layout. But it's been a couple of chaotic weeks, and I'm on LJ today really just to keep my mind from dwelling on some sucky stuff that's happening offline.
That being said, I have two things I want to briefly write about.
1. - Layout
Roughly 10% of the community took part in the poll.
Question: Are you interested in seeing a new layout for the community?
Results: Yes - 71.2%, No - 1.9%, Maybe - 26.9%
As a result, we will shoot for a new layout. I've decided to let the community submit ideas and vote to decide the look of the new design. I'll post about it separately, so please don't submit any ideas right now.
2. - February is the Month of Love
First of all, I freely admit to being inspired by another community in a different fandom.
Valentines Day, as we all know, comes in the middle of February. And Valentines means love. The plan is to have a different member post something different each day during February, on the subject of Daniel, Vala, and love. Again, I'll make a special post about this, so please don't volunteer your creative efforts in response to this post.
Right now, my plan is to do the Feb challenge first, and then do the layout contest in March or April. I want to make sure participants have enough time to complete their efforts, and this is a busy time of year for most people. There's Christmas and other holidays, and exams, and other end of year stuff. I'm sure you get the picture.
Anyway, stay tuned...
