Weekly Fanstuff is a collection of fan-submitted Homestar Runner projects and pictures. The latest featured fan work can be viewed by clicking on the F button at the top of a main page; a new submission was generally featured every Thursday from 2004 through late 2009, at which point the feature ceased to update. This hiatus was briefly acknowledged in 2014, but no new fan creations have been shared since October 22, 2009.

Fanstuff could be sent to The Brothers Chaps at their email address, brotherschaps@homestarrunner.com; the fact that the email address is now closed suggests that Fanstuff has been entirely discontinued in favor of @StrongBadActual.
