(How did that happen?!)

Back to Hogwarts!

Today is the day that all students return to Hogwarts! For those who are incoming first years, Beanie (Cassius Lestrange) already has the Sorting Ceremony up and running: https://charmingrp.com/showthread.php?tid=15883

Activity Check

Our next AC is next week, on September 8th! Please ensure that:

• Your mini-profile is filled in
  
• All of your characters have been listed in the Character Directory—check back on your entries to make sure they were processed properly! Anyone reactivated this month will need to be placed back on.  Also make sure your entry has an "envelope" button to show your main account!
  
• Characters made before the last AC have posted at least once since the last AC
  
• Profile has been filled in if not done during acceptance (Did you get a "DIY" PM? You'll need to do this!)
  
• Your character's height is displayed in their mini-profile—if you reactivate an account, this may need doing!
  
• All student characters have been updated for the new school year.
  

New Skins

Our graphics elves have been at it again, and we have four new skins dropping today:

• Mulch & Mist with a banner by Bee
  
• Autumn Leaves with a banner by Chris
  
• Harvest Sun with a banner by Fallin
  
• Midnight with a banner by Gin—our new dark skin!
  

As always you can change your skin either using the dropdown at the bottom of the board:



You can also change it via the "Edit Options" section of your User Control Panel.

Also, on the topic of graphics, those with keen eyes might spot a surprise or two from Lady...

Activity Check

Another activity check come and gone! The list of inactive accounts has been compiled and deactivations and list maintenance are underway :) If you lost a character you'd like back, you may post in Maintenance starting Wednesday, September 11th. If you have no currently active characters you can post in maintenance immediately!

(If you lost a character before the AC, you can post there whenever you'd like!)

Posting Wizard
