Today, groups join in the action! Active RP groups that wish to increase their visibility and gain new members can now be found in RP Finder searches!It's really easy to set your group up to take advantage of this feature. Anyone with edit access to the group will discover a new icon on the group management page today:
Publicity
Visit this page to rapidly set the group's visibility options and tagline. If the group is primarily used for RPing, you will also have access to the same set of genre sliders in the RP Finder. As soon as these options are set, players will begin to find your group when they search for similar genres.
Expect more publicity features for groups in the near future, but for now, enjoy the new blood to your RPs!
If you are searching for RP, rest assured that groups that have been inactive for more than two weeks will be removed from the RP Finder, so you will always be connected to groups that are ready to play.

First thing I thought of when I saw that new template was "Wizard's going to love this."

I PMed you to get more details, Sadrian. 
This is AWESOME! Love the template, and can't wait to get started on my entry for the contest 
I LOVE all these new things, especially adding groups to this... But I am a little limited by the description length, my initial description was 105 words long, it accepted 35. I know for sure Sanne's description is 90 words, so, it should've worked?
As for the new templates... They are absolute love! Thank you for everything, really!
