Select the 'edit folders' option, you'll find it there. As long as you don't add any thread, the discussion folder doesn't show on the home page.

[Tanya]

okay thanks :)

[Tanya]

Thanks for the help :)

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

Anytime :)

So how do you people want to choose BOTM?

[Divya]

Nupur, we are going to make a genre poll and then a book poll and ask people to vote. Whichever book wins will be the BoTM.

[[deleted user]]

So should we start it for july??

[Tanya]

I think so :)

[Divya]

Yes, that was what I had in mind. Let's wait for Ipshi to come here.

[Tanya]

Okay :)

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

I agree we should start from july. It would also give us time to add any more threads that we want to add.

[Divya]

Alright then. Ipshi - BoTM
Tanya - Buddy reads
Divya - Read 4 Review

:D

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

Okay :)

[Divya]

Hey Ipshi, shall I add some monthly challenges like copycat and wcrtm?

[[deleted user]]

me????

[Divya]

Nupur - Shall you take care of the challenges, then?

[[deleted user]]

okay:)

[[deleted user]]

Now suggest a new description for the group. And what about the masthead???

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

Nupur I'll try writing the description, and since I can't create the masthead, I look for appropriate pics on which you could maybe edit the group's name, or we can select one of the mastheads that you guys created.

[Tanya]

That's a great idea and Nupur, I have a great idea for a challenge that I have seen on another group :) Could I post it in the challenges thread?

[[deleted user]]

please tell me here.

[Tanya]

Okay wait a minute :)

Level Challenge

This is a level challenge meaning that you complete 1 Level before going onto the next :) There's no time limit so you can take your time also I thought it would help people with their Goodreads Challenge :)

[Tanya]

Cool :) glad you liked it x

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

Awesome challenge, Tanya :D

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

For the July BOTM, I'm planning to start with classics, historical romance, fantasy, contemporary and humour. What do you guys think?

[Divya]

I'm okay with those, Ipshi. :D

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

Thanks Divs. Also do you read fantasy novels? I don't read it much, so I don't know which books would be good for the Genre thread.

[Divya]

Yep, I read lots of fantasy novels. I'll help you :D

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

Thanks Divs :)

[Divya]

Aw, don't be formal :D

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

Hehe alright :)

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

Nupur, about the monthly July challenge, I think you should use events that are celebrated worldwide and not just in USA or Canada, since we have members from different countries.

[Tanya]

Like one of your mods lol ;) Me :)

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

Like me too:)
Which country are you from Tanya?

[Tanya]

UK, what about you?

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

India.

[Tanya]

That's great :)

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

[Tanya]

Divya, I really like that one :)

[Divya]

Thanks Tanya! :D

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

Love it Divs! :)

[Divya]

Oh well, it is invalid as a masthead :(

[Ipshita, The bookkeeper:)]

What? Why? :(

[Divya]

Has something to do with the size....it is not big enough....

[[deleted user]]

Divya can you resize it to 960×275 px. It is awesome.

[Divya]

I'll try, but I'm not sure Nupur.......I'll go and try now itself.
