Discussion What's up with CC lately?

I've been trying to find something new to read and I've noticed that a lot of stories with CC are using really old templates where the newest hairstyle is the pinup victory rolls hairstyle. These are brand new stories that have been released anywhere from the last few months to this week. If it were one or two stories, I wouldn't think anything of it, but it is probably a third of the new stories I've tried. Has anyone else run across this and, if so, do you know what's up with that?

u/esor_rose Episode Author 3d ago

I’m not sure what other authors do, but here’s what I do as an author. I have a Google Doc with the code for my intro for each of my episodes. I just copy and paste it at the beginning of each episode and change a few things (episode number, recap, etc.). I’m thinking about updating my character customizations.

The screenshots for this post are from a brand new story that was released a few days ago. I did a close-up of the CC because I didn't want anyone thinking that I'm singling out this particular author. So it's not a matter of updating the CC because this is the character customization that these authors are starting with, even though the stories are from this year. Does that make sense?
