Confusion re: CLAMP

[spleen.livejournal.com]

When I was reading the official website for credits and I read this:

キャラクターデザイン原案: ＣＬＡＭＰ

Which means the original character designs are by CLAMP. But since then read in several places that it was originally produced/created by CLAMP, so I'm confused.

My Japanese isn't that great (maybe I missed something?), so I ask for comfirmation: What is CLAMP's part in this series? Are they related to the manga? I had believed the anime came before the manga, am I mistaken?

It's weird when several sources all say different things, though I don't see where anything official says these things. -_o

I'm inclinded to believe the official website, and that some fan websites and such are mistaken.

Thank you for any comfirmation ahead of time.

That's exactly what I believed from reading the website. Thank you for comfirming. ♥ I guess some websites are confused. :)
