What, you thought I had something important to say?

SPC 10 too.

While Henrydamoose ^(t∣b∣c) can never be replaced, the show must go on and his duties have been filled by Cobweb ^(t∣b∣c) and JesseRoo ^(t∣b∣c). Of course that leaves their shoes needed to be filled, so let's congratulate Vined ^(t∣b∣c), McQueenMario ^(t∣b∣c), and COKEMAN11 ^(t∣b∣c) for filling them.

I have a dream that this wiki will rise up and live out it's true potential. I have a dream that one day old articles and games will not be abandoned and rot. I have a dream that stubs will one day become the articles they are meant to be. I have a dream that all articles will be categorized. JesseRoo ^(t∣b∣c) has had these dream as well, or something similar. JesseRoo ^(t∣b∣c) has proposed measures to give this wiki a more comfortable feel. Of course, this wiki would be much more comfortable if those abandoned characters and games were not rotting, but were rather well off and taken care of. This wiki would be much more comfortable if stubs would be expanded to the articles they are meant to be. This wiki would be much more comfortable if all articles were categorized. To make this wiki more comfortable and increase the together-ness of our community, the official Fantendo Improvement Drive has been created. The Fantendo Improvement Drive will aim for these to expand stubs, categorize all articles, and continue old, clearly abandoned games and fan-fics. So I urge you, all of you great Fantendo contributors, to focus on these issues more and help improve our community. Thank you for your time.

Single Panel Comics #9.

"An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind." — Gandhi

The main menu has been updated, I hope you like it. One of the two interactive features is the brilliantly original Quote of the Day. Any user will be able to change the quote to their liking once a day. Another is the latest blog, which shows the most recent blog on the site. Unfortunately, you'll have to copy and paste it manually, but the extra attention will be well worth it.

I am also thinking of turning the Boxart Hall of Fame into a Featured Images section, please join this thought with me at the Community Portal.

Fantendo's Single Panel Comics are back! This one is a modified version of one of my old works. I'm going to put some more modified old works of mine up here because I'm too lazy to use new things from scratch. Also, normal users are free to make their own SPCs and put them on the Blog now.

Lots of new stuff this month. We have the User Blog, userboxes, and another issue of Single Panel Comics.

Based on feedback, users can now post in the blog without permission. However, there are a few guidelines:

• To post on the blog the user must have been active on Fantendo for at least two weeks or have obtained at least one Medal.
• Posts on the blog must be significant for the blog, not a trivial little question (that's what the community portal is for). More minor things, such as a daily routine or something like that can be posted on a user's private blog.
• The sysops shall have their own blog section and users shall have their own section.
• Cobweb ^(t∣b∣c) and administrators reserve the right to ban a user from blogging if they blog improperly (e.g. blog too much about trivial things, blog about trivial/inappropriate things, etc.) or restrict the number of times they can blog at a time.
• To post, the user must not have been banned previously even if they have received the Reformed Medal unless Cobweb ^(t∣b∣c) or an administrator allows them to.
  

Note that all of these guidelines are subject to change depending on further feedback, which goes in the Community Portal.

Also, userboxes have finally arrived. All these wonderful, unique... huh? What? Whaddya mean there's barely any of 'em? Well then you better add some more from other wikis!
