FECO Website is renewed!

FECO Website is renewed!

New features are added to the website; such as contests blacklist, categorized cartoon contests, protected part to publish your articles and artworks, etc.:

http://www.fecocartoon.com/

And here is what they write about the renewed website in the summary report of their meeting in St Just le Martel, France on October 4th, 2008:

There will be no password anymore. The FECO site will be restyled by Alban & Bouton. Easily to read. FECO logo in blue. Flags & logo’s. Heads of chiefs. Links to members and all other known cartoon sites. We keep it simple. We do not have the money nor the people to build a spectacular site. The star rating system will be on the site, as well as information about festivals. The ‘moving’ page will be: “What happened this month?” (with up-to-date news, pictures and cartoons). More news will follow.
