As you have probably already noticed, [personal profile] seraphina_snape is now an admin in this community, too.

She is taking over the responsibility of keeping the challenge lists up to date, which I'd sadly been neglecting lately. She also has great ideas for icon discussion talk posts. I am very much looking forward to them!

Welcome, and thank you, [personal profile] seraphina_snape!

The current monthly activity - remakes - is still ongoing, and you can also still post your progression posts whenever you like (there is no deadline for them, and there are already three of them posted).

The new activity for February will be posted next Sunday.
