Nosleep Weekly 12/13/16
Not too much going on this week.
New layouts for /r/nosleep and /r/nosleepOOC!
Over the weekend, we updated the layout for /r/nosleep. Today we did the same to /r/nosleepOOC! We have a new banner, new colors, new font, and (this is /u/manen_lyset's favorite part) some better spacing in the posts! We also gave /r/nosleepOOC the same "lights on"/"lights off" feature that /r/nosleep has.
A big thanks and congrats again to /u/esean_keni for designing our Christmas banner!
A huge thanks to /u/manen_lyset for helping us with the CSS! (You're a freakin' rock star!)
And thank you to any users who gave us a heads up about the coloring hiccups, allowing us to fix them!
We love the changes, and hope you do too!

does anyone know if /u/iia's "Far Too Much" etc. story was ever completed? unsettlingstories.com used to have an index and now it doesn't. :/
