Just a little suggestion...

   Hello there. =) You put a lot of hard work into this site and it shows. Cudos to you. =) I have a little suggestion that others have probably mentioned, but I think it might add a couple of fun elements to your site. In addition to the character, item, plot, and idea creation section, I think it might be a good idea to add a profession and race creation section. In the profession section the creators might specify it's combatant (or none combatant) nature (like a mage... a warrior.... a cook... etc etc), bonuses and special abilities for being of this profession (according to the gaming system used ofcaurse), spells this profession is limited to or in adition recieves, and limitations and guidlines of the profession. For the race section it could specify the overall apearance and build of a race (anything special about it... like eye color, height, build, features unique to that race, etc etc), life spans, resistances and special abilites that race has, life styles, clothing, demeanor, etc etc. Your the webmaster, so it's your decision ofcourse. These are mearly suggestions. =)

   I take all suggestions very seriously.
   
   I am not too sure about the profession section. I would imagine that is sort of like the kits in D&D. Because each one would have to be pretty game specific it sort of makes it hard to make it universal. Best thing to get this one accomplished is to use the NPC and maybe give some more stuff after the good generic description that can be used by everybody.
   
   The race thing though. I have tossed that idea around my head on multiple occasions. Sort of a new race/monster type thing. I have a couple I have used that I could fit in there.
   
   It is basically a balancing act with my time. First thing on my list is the new location database for physical locations. Once that is up and running well we can reaccess these ideas, which are good one.
   
   Keep the suggestions coming. The more ideas and brainstorming we can do the more trouble we can get into. :wink:

   Umm could we somehow get the aviator pic to be able to be any size, and it compresses/expands it to fit the right window. There are a couple pics I would really like to try but it sais they are too big. Also, coul it allow other pic types?

   Are you talking about your pic under your name?
   
   In that case it is a 100x100 limit with a 10kb limit (I am pretty sure).
   
   This I will not change because I don't like big pictures for an avatar and it bogs down load time for those not on fast connections. (forum load times and size are way too big as it is for my taste)
   
   If you need help with resizing a picture I would be happy to help. Just email it to me at strolen@strolen.com and I will resize it for you and make it available.
   
   Whatever it is it can be converted to be a .jpg, .gif, or a .png which are all standard web formats and have good compression and can make it fit the requirements. I guess you just need the software to do it. Send me a bunch of ones you want if you like, would be happy to do it. Make it an obvious subject though because I usually delete anything with an attachment that I don't immediately recognize.
   
   Hope that will work for ya.

   To do list cancelled? I have an idea, why not another whole forum being added on the "main" page with a "game" that everyone consists in. Make the topics only able to be created by yourself (strolen) and set up different locations for the people to RP in. Some examples could be the citadel, the tavern, the town thats 10km away, etc etc. That way instead of following a particular story we could all be in the same one, just in different locations getting things moving. I love board "simming"(I'm dating myself there, sorry) and I think this would be a good place to implement a type like this.

   If there are enough that want it, I am more then happy to do it. Forums are some of the easiest things to implement as well.
   
   I would have to defer to our resident Freeform Roleplayer extroidinaire Ria Hawk for this one and let her make that decision. PM her or perhaps start an entirely new thread in this form and spell out in even more detail. The more detail the better we can make a more educated decision. If you know of other sites that do it point us that way to.
   
   Field of Dreams in reverse. If you come, I will build it.
