Animal Crossing Community (or just "ACC") is your one-stop site for everything Animal Crossing -- covering the original Animal Crossing (GameCube), Animal Crossing: Wild World (DS), and now, Animal Crossing: City Folk (Wii)! Here you can set up and show off your catalog to others, trade your stuff with other users using on our Animal Crossing: City Folk Trading Forum, or just chat with other Animal Crossing members on our many other Animal Crossing Forums. You can show off your artistic talents by creating patterns with our Pattern Maker and have other members vote on whether or not it's worthy of the Top 10.

You can also find information and discussions about Animal Crossing: City Folk, the latest version of Animal Crossing released for Nintendo's newest console, Nintendo Wii. Animal Crossing: City Folk supports wi-fi for online connectivity with your friends, as well as many other new features. Check out our Animal Crossing: City Folk Forums for info and discussions about Animal Crossing: City Folk. We have also added a Friend Codes sharing system that allows you to privately -- and safely -- swap Friend Codes with other members of the community. Not only can you swap Friend Codes for Animal Crossing: City Folk, but other Nintendo DS and Wii games as well!

This is just the tip of the ACC iceberg. There's a ton to explore and do at ACC and we're always adding new and exciting features. If you are a new user click here to get started. Or, you can browse the site on your own, and use the Getting Started link in the AC Community menu to help you out whenever you need it.

Support ACC
ACC has now grown to where it requires commercial hosting -- which means, we require incoming revenue to help support our monthly costs. One way we do this is through advertisements. The second way we do this is through member support, by means of donations. If you enjoy ACC and feel that we are providing a safe and fun service to you, you can help support our costs by donating. For those that do donate, we will be offering a few perks, to express appreciation for your support.

Concerning the Nintendo Connection Ambassador Promotion in the UK and Europe
Recently, Nintendo of Europe launched a service where members could recommend others to connect to Nintendo's WiFi connection and they would receive free Nintendo points and VC games, called Connection Ambassador Promotion.
As with trading of VC games, we are NOT allowing any members to advertise or get referrals through ACC. Anyone found doing so, we have the posts removed.

ACC Banner Contest
Banner Contest

Welcome to ACC's Banner Contest. This time, you will be designing a banner much like the one on the homepage. Feel free to make the banner however you see fit, but keep in mind it needs to go with the site. You may use the grasses that ACC uses on the banners. Feel free make the banner for any season or holiday you wish. You will have only one post on the submission thread so don't waste it. Take your time and only post when you are happy with your entry. If you have any questions, please ask on the Q and A thread

Guidelines
1. Don't steal the work of others.
2. It would be nice if your entry contained all three elements, but only the first one is absolutely necessary:
  • The main graphical portion, such as this. This must be between 400 and 600 pixels wide, AND between 160 and 170 pixels tall. Elements should include characters, a sky, and a ground, but do not include any text. We will add in the text at a later date, and we do not want the text to be the one thing that's keeping a great banner from being done. Please leave space so the text can be added in. Refer to ACC's current banner for an idea of how much space to leave.

  • b. A repeatable grass portion with nothing else on it, such as this. For more grasses, see the bottom of this announcement. This grass must match the height of the grass on the main portion, and should have the capability to be repeated (See what the current banner does when you resize your window?) seamlessly. The grass should be around 40 pixels tall, or about a fourth of the total height.

  • c. A "sky" portion that is at least 70 pixels wide like this, and can be repeated seamlessly like the grass portion.

3. You only get one entry, post it when you feel its the best you can do.
4. Even if you win, this doesn't necessarily mean your banner will be used, we will have to test it and vote between ourselves.
5. Have fun! We want to see some creativity here.

Item catalogue glitch
Whilst updating the items catalogue for City Folk, it seems the items have been accidentally added to the Wild World catalogue. We are looking into this, and hopefully will correct this error as soon as possible.
Please try not to mark those items off in the Wild World catalogue.

UPDATE
This issue has been resolved now.
