Hey, Designers!
          
          Wattpad turns 19 this year, filled with unforgettable connections. To celebrate, we at MediaDirectory prepared questions for you! From today until November 30th, we preapred a special place to meet your fellow designers and talk about all things graphics.
          
          For our first trivia: What is the best file format for saving images with a transparent background?
          
          We'll shout out those who participated, and those who got the correct answer.
          
          And...HQ has a special giveaway for you! Tag your Wattpad besties for a chance to win awesome prizes! https://www.wattpad.com/1580549591-news-updates-19th-bday-giveaway-tag-your-bestie
          
          Cheers,
          MediaDirectory Team

Thank you for adding "I Did a Thing!" to your reading lists! Just one thing, though. It's on the Fantasy Covers list, but it's more of a profile guide/graphics portfolio, so I'm not sure if another list would fit it better?

          Hiya Fam! 
          
          It is October, where spooky stories emerge from the shadows to gain the spotlight. And we at @lgbtq have an exciting and fun activity for everyone to play. 
          
          Do you want the chance to decide a character's fate in a story? Make a choice and hope you've made the right one? 
          
          Then welcome to the Halloween Gambit, an interactive, spooky story at the Carnival of Horrors. There's a new chapter every 3 days, a timeframe during which you pick the available choices at the end of each chapter. The most comments next to a choice will drive the character's fate forward. 
          
          To find out more and to start playing, head on over to the book! We hope to see you there! https://www.wattpad.com/story/402700741-the-halloween-gambit

          Hello, Fright Lovers!
          
          October is almost here, Fright Fiends, and the shadows are buzzing with excitement! Get ready for a spine-tingling game as we summon your imagination with Two-Sentence Fright Stories—mini tales that will haunt you long after the screen goes dark.
          
          Here’s how to join:
          Pick your Corner of Darkness (Eldritch Entries, Afraid of the Dark, Creative Features, or Halloween Horror).
          
          Choose your creature, from Dracula to Wendigo… or invent your own.
          
          In just two sentences, tell a story with Goals, Motivation, Conflict, and Stakes (GMCS).
          
          Once you're ready, drop your story in the comments under the activity post on the @Fright profile starting October 1st.
          
          If your story fits your chosen corner, you’ll earn a weekly shout-out and a special participant sticker, your mark among the whispers.
