We are pleased to announce (a little late) the winner for the April Fools challenge, "April Fool's Day" congratulations to me4eva.

We are also happy to announce a new challenge, for the summer months, to create a new skin for the site.This will run for a about two and a half months until 7PM GMT 10th September., to give plenty of time for anyone new to skinning to take part.

For anyone who doesn't know what a skin means it refers to changing asthetic visual appearance and layout of a website's pages and in the case of efiction, the software we use, it's done with html/css + a little creativity making new graphics. It might sound a little technical but it can be quite fun.

We are looking forward to seeing what people come up with for the site - any questions about the challenge please do ask. :)

The 'Campfire Tales' challenge is now closed, with unfortunately no entries, and so no winner.

The 'All Work' January challenge is now closed, and the winner is Junketh71 with To work or not to work.  Congratulations to them.
