We hope you have all been enjoying the latest update for New Horizons that came out last night. Tonight we have a few updates of our own to share on The Bell Tree.
New Horizons Profile Fields
Under your account details you'll now find new fields for your New Horizons information. We've also cleaned up a few older fields such as City Folk information.
Island Journals

You'll find Island Journals as a sub-forum under the main Animal Crossing: New Horizons board.

Pattern Gallery is a sub-forum of Able Sisters and will contain the actual patterns for New Horizons. We've added new thread fields here for pattern source, creator ID, and design ID.

One of our biggest areas of moderating over the last few weeks has been moving threads to the correct boards, so we want to help clarify the purpose of each one. Here is a list that helps describe the organization and breakdown of the boards in the New Horizons category:
That's All!
Thanks for reading these updates and we look forward to seeing how creative all of you will be in both your island and pattern threads!
