Yay, I'm in the silly dark red thing on the main page!
I think the name of the capital will be Nydewb (Not Yet Declared, Eventually Will Be), but the different anarchist groups that rule the republic will have to discuss that.
But Nydewb does have a nice ring to it, doesn't it?

Right, all new memembers are now added. I still have no idea why or how we ended up on the front page, but I'm not going to complain.
There are probably many errors so badger me to correct it if you spot one.

Where are we on the front page? I've only just been able to get a chance to look and can't see us. Were we in the busiest conversations or somethihng?

yesterday, it had a new little blob, a little description, a link, and "equal rights for socks" on there. that's way better than the busiest list.

Which is why the confussion, as I have never made any attempt to plug the site, apart from a link on my space and an advert on the Classified Adds page. Nobody even mentioned that it was being put on the front page, I just logged on and found it there. I have no idea where the picture came from, I checked in the Picture Library and it wasn't from there.

How do you get put on the front page anyway?
Can it be anyone who comes across us and recommends?

AK - fancy that! Posted Feb 12, 2004
well I wouldn't argue...
One way to get a club on the front page is to get it through <./>communityart-requests</.> (I think that's it). Plus, you get a blob for the group.

I have no idea. There's a community choice section under Talk on the front page, where you can recommend clubs you come across, but no one seems to have been paying attention to it lately.

You have to put a club throguh community choice before getting a blob. however they're a bit lax about checking it I think.

Aren't we already in community choice?

AK - fancy that! Posted Feb 13, 2004
It's likely. But then, we've already got a blob, sorta. two, now

Laura Posted Feb 13, 2004
No, we are not now and have never been in either community choice or community art requests. The graphic that was there before I got from the picture library. The new one, as far as I can work out, is our own, as it isn't in the picture library.

Well they jsut have to have a front-page graphic for every front page thingy. So, they do...

It's a good picture too. I was trying to track it down as normally thre's a larger rectangular version, but there doesn't seem to be one.
