    You can always edit the amount of time a gif takes to loop between the images. That shouldn't be too difficult.

    Is it wrong to hate your players before your campaign starts or you have them all recruited? I have been toiling at this for a bit longer than I'd like this evening - anyone want to take a crack at making it better? Or if not fuggit they get what they get...

    Ingrate bastiges ... all players everywhere

    **Edit** here is the form but I fixed it myself - I am a self rescuing princess:

    If anyone wants my Gimp template to make their own versions send me a pm or email at the.maze.controller @ gmail dot com

    *grumbles* stupid players....

    See if this'll work. I just started using Fireworks, so I am a complete noob. Not even sure if I animated it correctly.

    That looks pretty excellent. Esp. the "It's all about to change" bit. It works wonderfully.

    Perhaps add Raze's work too to a third panel ? have the darkest banner sandwiched between the lighter 2?

    Sure. I can do that. Let me play with it and I'll try to have something up by early this afternoon, if time permits. Silly work... expecting me to do stuff for them.

    Oh and I know there has to be a better way to transition the files. So I'll get caught up on youtube tutorials see what I can find. :D

    Ok... I redid my version/animation. But it's freakin 972kb... gotta find out how to make it smaller. I tried dropping in Rase Cidraen's but it's a hair smaller and the cropped areas are different. I can do up 2 different ones if you want with some kind of transition page in between them.

    @Rase can you shoot me a copy of image you made with layers? Or at least a version of it before and then the final version that way I can build in some animated transitions.

    I'm still getting my head around animating gifs. My timing is a bit off, I think. I don't know... just me being anal about the design of it. Anywho... look it over, and gimme some feedback.
    Thanks.

    (and can someone share the code so when I embed links it doesn't look like this? Pls and thank you)

    Wow swanky! Hope you don't mind I added it to my "Dresdenverse on Obsidian Portal Page":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/dfd/wikis/dresdenverse

    Holy smokes!

    I had no idea there were so many Dresden games out there! I've been compiling a mental list of resources to look at for inspiration (and I don't mind saying the format you used for your game notes for "Smoker? I didn't even know her!" was HUGE for getting my campaign ideas organized). That mental list just spiraled down the drain, and I've bookmarked YOUR list. Thanks for the resource wolfhound, and for providing an awesome example of the genre.

    Thanks, very kind of you to say. :)

    It was my pleasure to compile, hope it's useful.

    AHH! Creepy sentient computer voice!

    "It was my pleasure to compile, Dave..."

    ...I don't want to be compiled!

    Compile her? I didn't even know her!

    AHH!

    It looks like "Excellent":http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff300/A-G-A/Face.jpg is just fine, but at the bottom of the comment window, make sure that you have textile enabled, instead of plain text (I did this one plain text to show the link).

    Excellent!

    It worked and I am not a doofus.

    In other news, I was supposed to be happily vegging out playing video games instead of lurking the net working on my game / site but so much exciting stuff happend this evening that I lost the urge to play video games.

    this is a clear sign of obsession.

    My offer is open to anyone who wants to try their hand at the graphic! I'll happily trade some writing work or work on your campaign. I did a "newspaper story" for Rase that turned out pretty well, and we're both happy.
