FCC Quarterly Community Newsletter
Introduction
Welcome to the July Edition of the FCC Community Newsletter. FCC has several exciting milestones to update the community on...
The FCC HUD
What-the-HUD??!!
On May 15th, 2023 FCC launched its first tool to the community, the FCC HUD. The HUD in many ways is a digitized format of one of FCC’s original feature benefits, the FCC Newsletter. The FCC Newsletter was a notecard circulated quarterly featuring a compilation of all affiliated venues and their contact information including notecards, social & educational events, and landmarks. This provided a resource for anyone in our community to have on-hand and circulate at-will.
In addition to Newsletter curation & distribution, FCC’s inworld Kiosk provides advertising for each affiliated venue, customized branded boards that deliver similar information specific to each venue, when clicked by SecondLife residents.
The FCC Kiosk–in Your Pocket!
With the HUD, residents now have the FCC Kiosk and list of affiliated venues in their pockets. Community members no longer require the Newsletter notecard and instead access up-to-date information on all FCC affiliated venues and stores and can teleport directly to the venues, stores and events. The HUD also provides quick and easy access to the events in the FCC Community calendar as well as other FCC resources for affiliates and members. HUD updates occur weekly, so information is fresh and up-to-date. In a future release, affiliates will be able to manage and update information themselves via a web browser.
FCC Newsletter Format Significantly Changes
The new FCC Newsletter format is now completely digital and just as easy to circulate as before, now with a weblink. Even better is simply passing the HUD to residents interested in exploring the Femdom lifestyle in SecondLife. Residents can access the Newsletter, browse the Affiliate Library to visit those locations, review the FCC Community Calendar of Events and teleport directly to venues, events & shopping.
New HUD Features!
This month, significant improvements have been achieved with the HUD.
One significant change you’ll notice immediately is the HUD now ships in a box that requires unpacking. Simply add the object to your avatar or rezz to the ground and the object will automatically prompt you to unpack. Delete the shipping box afterward.
Once the package is unpacked, locate the FCC HUD Package vX.X.X folder in your inventory. The folder has three objects: a Help Notecard, a Smartphone HUD object and an optional Smartphone hand-held object.
Smartphone HUD - this object attaches like a normal HUD. It is REQUIRED to use the FCC HUD.
Smartphone hand-held - this object is now optional. Wearing the item animates your avatar and when the on-screen HUD is minimized, hides the hand-held object. After maximizing the on-screen HUD, the hand-held device reappears & animates your avatar. The hand-held object is not required to be worn/attached to operate the on-screen HUD.
Also of note are these new improvements & features:
optimizing the scripting for 60% improvement in memory function,
the addition of World Map button for each affiliate,
a marketplace link (if your venue is a store),
a lock feature to prevent the HUD from being removed and
affiliates may now provide SOCIAL MEDIA information for display in the HUD. To include your venue's social media details (discord, blogs, facebook, flickr, vimeo/youtube, etc.), contact Ashe (astarteh.mysterious) inworld, via Discord @devi_ashe (DeviThyme#9193), or any other FCC Admin (contact information below).
Special mention of THANKS goes out to Nivx, a LSL beast and FCC’s most recent developer/programmer volunteer, for contributing his time and talent to optimize and improve the community HUD.

Meld News
Planning for The MELD this coming September continues. This is a first-ever event of its kind, a weekend-long FemDom convention in SecondLife. Four planning committees are working behind the scenes to create an event designed to showcase the Femdom lifestyle in SecondLife, liaising specifically with our network of affiliates and community members.
If you would like to HOST or PERFORM at this event, we are actively booking events, discussions, kink demonstrations, art exhibits and more into the Meld Event calendar.
For more information, click FCC > The Meld button on the HUD, visit the Kiosk inworld or contact a member of FCC staff.

Remember to join the 'Femdom Community Connections' group in SL to receive notifications of events from our affiliated venues. And refer other community members to FCC by offering them a copy of the HUD and an invitation to the group.
To hold your spot at The Meld September 22nd through 24th, contact an FCC Admin (see below).
Our continued thanks to our affiliates, their owners and staff, and the Femdom community for your support. Your participation is vital in helping us provide this resource and nurture unity in our Femdom community. We thank you!
