Discovered in a Christmas Cracker

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Well, this really is the closing post for our Discovered in a Christmas Cracker challenge - thank you so much to everyone who took part, whether creating or reading and commenting and encouraging all the people who posted! Our Pros community always looks so gorgeous over winter/Christmas/December-January/Solstice-time, because of all the people who join in and make it gorgeous - you're all brilliant!

I never really know whether anyone uses this but myself, but you'll now find that the calendar links to the posts of each person on their day - click on the 1st December, for instance, and you'll find murphybabe's contribution, click on the 2nd and you'll find moonlightmead's fic for the day (click on the 5th and you'll find all her posts for that day!). If you missed a day in the calendar, you can hover over it to see who posted, and click on it for those posts to come up.

You will also find a link to the entire challenge on the community User Information page (and to all previous challenges, of course... *g*), and you can search the community by author via the tag system too (there's an lj link at the top of the User Info page to all the comm tags) and you'll also find them here - clicking on an author's name will bring up everything they've contributed to the community (ignore tags that end in things like "cracker" or "tree", we use those to make the calendar and user info page links, of course!).

It all looks so pretty!

Considering LJ was being so cranky, didn't we do well! Everyone was brilliant, gritting their teeth and posting in the end. I think I managed to see everything, but I couldn't always get in to comment, which was a pain... and reminds me I've got comments on my day I haven't got back to yet because it got too hard.

Thank you for all the organising - and for sorting this last post out so fabulously. Can't wait for the next one now!

It does look pretty, doesn't it! *g*

And heee for waiting for the next one - I've just been thinking about the emptiness that is January...
