Why thank you Fortress, and congrats on being an underwater Harmonix Fairy (and no longer a Pixie?). xD I truly wish there were a way to make this forum mobile friendly, but I haven't a clue how to do it yet. If I see any options in the future I'll definitely explore it though. Okay guys...it's a little bittersweet, but the banner has been updated. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles that some website pictures do, but it does the job and stands up for MC and Season 8 of Winx Club. (I think I want to tweak the font, but for now there it is!) I'm attaching the old MC banner for nostalgia, in case anyone wants it. It's sad to say goodbye to it, but it had to be done.

@Fort: I think an archive of all the graphics is a good idea. As soon as I have a moment I will make that topic. Ah, ha ha! A Specialist Week banner. So what dates will that be? @Marty: I remember that Christmas one! I was here one year that it was used. It was cute. I think it's possible to set the entire default forum to be Christmas-themed for December, if we want to do that in the future again. And of course, we can toggle it on and off if we want. In case we like celebrating Christmas in July. And thank you, glad you like banner. No doubt all 27 topics you made for Season 8 took a long time! Nice job again. .... I get the funny feeling like all 3 of us are running around an abandoned Aflea castle (aka the forum), decorating the rooms and clearing the cobwebs.

Aww, hey Tea! Always nice to see a fellow MC Founder/family member pop in. It's true, activity is low around here, I hear ya... Life for all of us has moved on, but it's nice to see the site is still here (thanks to Riisa for keeping the lights on ). This site has become something of a calming refuge for me in the last few months of health issues. Not as fast as IG, so I don't get overwhelmed. I bet you were shocked to see the old banner finally updated, lol. 'Bout time. Marty has been a rockstar doing constant topics and posts! I think he is singlehandedly keeping this place alive. I'm glad you stopped by and that it's looking better. Even if the era of forums is on the way out. I still love IG because it's easy to share images, but it's not so good for communication. The forums will always my favorite place to hash out ideas. Hope everything is going well in your life, especially your artistic career.

QUOTE (Abby @ Jan 18 2021, 10:44 PM) I just wanted to say that I truly appreciate all the work you have put into keeping up with the forum and keeping it alive. I wish I would've made more efforts throughout the years to keep up after saying I would how many times, but sadly have not. Thanks again for preserving this site and all of the history on here. It's nice to have it still here when so many other websites from my childhood are long gone. That rings so true with me and several others who have loved this place through the years. Marty is just incredible with constantly making posts for birthdays and other celebrations. It's always in the back of my mind though...how awesome it would be if this forum came back to life with some of the old crew and lots of new members. Winx is very relevant again today. But I have no idea if ppl will frequent a forum anymore. 🤔 My Instagram Winx community is okay, but not as talkative as a forum. I just wish there was a way to breathe life back into this place.

QUOTE (Ranma @ Feb 19 2021, 8:40 PM) I still log in from time to time. This place was home for me for such a long time and I love everyone that I had the pleasure to meet here.
1. How do we get one of those fancy ranks?
2. I still think it would be nice if this site had a discord or something. It's not the same as a forum but it might be a good way for everyone to keep in touch and be a bit more active without erasing anything on here. I agree! I loved meeting so many fun people from around the world. Like I said above, the Instagram Winx community is okay, but nothing compares to the way we did things on this forum. Everyone was friendly, lots of different things to chat about, role plays, trivia games, life help. Everything. 😁 And I have no idea if anyone uses forums again, but with all the history here, you'd think this would be prime for reviving! I just wish I knew how to find people to come to the site, because Winx is very relevant again. It definitely has come back to life quite a bit due to Fate and Season 8 and now 9 in the works. What's the rank thing you're asking about Ranma? If I know how or what to do, I can fix something for you. Or Marty can too. A Discord is a good idea. If you have any ideas of getting ppl to join? I have none. 😅 I could definitely set one up or something. I did it for another community, but ppl are fickle and left, and the channel died. I talked to one of the owners of this account (I think she's "keeping the lights on") and I asked her about any chance this site could be made mobile friendly. But it is too much work she said. I understand, but bummer... I realize you guys wrote your comments a year ago. So if you don't see this I totally understand, lol.
