Title: A Few Things Worth Mentioning
Description: ...finally


Marlin ßeta - December 10, 2004 03:24 PM (GMT)
For those of you who don’t already know, I’ve lost the host for my radio shows. It’s unfortunate, but shows nine through twelve will be very difficult for everyone to get a hold of. I’m currently working on getting a new host, but the show files themselves may not be available until mid January. Also, there will be no show thirteen until the end of January because the station is down for exams and the holidays. The time slot will also change next year because of differences in my schedule. I'm currently trying to get a Sunday time slot, but I can't make any promises. For now, it's out of my hands.

In other recent events, there have been a lot of problems in gaining enthusiasm over the new forum clans. Anyone who has a REALLY good suggestion needs to get in contact with me immediately. Lastly, I’m also looking for someone who can do a really good banner drawing of a roc for The Roc’s Nest. If you are interested, get in touch and I’ll send the specifications that I’m looking for.

My friend is the Admin of IF Skin Realm, the second most popular site for IF skins and graphics. I could aks him to put something together; his specialty happens to be graphics. He doesn't do hand drawing, but I would still recommend him.

Hey marlin one thing I want to know if the clans have died. Why am I still a wind striker?

SuicuneSol - December 11, 2004 12:31 AM (GMT)
I can try! I wanna try! Oh please! Oh please!! I can hand draw, somewhat well. I'm better at people then animals, but I can try! Oh please! Can I?! Can I?!

I have a little idea brothing up in brain, but it's not done yet. A little salt and pepper needs to be added.

EDIT: Slatter, the clans aren't dead.....yet.

Marlin ßeta - December 11, 2004 06:09 AM (GMT)
No, clans will remain for now. But they are currently completely inactive until further notice.

Yeah, go ahead Suicune. 8| XD

I might just implement that wooden skin myself one of these days. ¬¬)

I'd like to get in touch with your friend, Jaken. Graphics are fine. I just want something fresh and original to spice things up.

Jaken Veina - December 12, 2004 12:10 AM (GMT)
I'll talk to him about it. AND NO SKIN, MARLIN!!!!! THAT'S MY PROJECT!

Marlin ßeta - December 13, 2004 05:12 AM (GMT)
How's the talking coming along?

Jaken Veina - December 13, 2004 10:25 PM (GMT)
He hasn't been on since I said I'd talk to him. Otherwise, I would've already.

It's good to see your getting anew skin for this place Marlin. It's a very good forum, but the letdown lies in its appearance. Good luck with all this. And, what kind of host do you need?

Jaken Veina - December 15, 2004 10:40 PM (GMT)
UPDATE: I've talked to my friend. He says he's kind of strayed from doing large pics like Banners and avatars, but he'll do it anyway. He told me to get him more information about what it should look like. If you want his E-mail I'll PM you with it and give him yours.

Hmmm. Nice, but not what I'm looking for. I need birds (hawks, eagles, and falcons preferably). I've decided to devote this week to working on the site since I'm not working anymore, anywhere else. B)

SuicuneSol - January 2, 2005 05:56 AM (GMT)
What about your fanfic!!?

sol_blade - January 2, 2005 07:47 PM (GMT)

Happy devoted to the roc week!! :D

Marlin ßeta - January 3, 2005 04:32 AM (GMT)
Sol Blade. Your links aren't working (it might be me, though. My internet is pretty messy right now).

And as for my fanfic, that's one of the things I want to do very badly before I have to head back to college. But I'm also going to do some work on the walkthrough. Ikillkenny has given me permission to use his. So I'll be working that into the site.

sol_blade - January 3, 2005 04:31 PM (GMT)
they seem to be working on my computer...but just copy and paste the link in the url bar.

the first one:

She's not a Roc of course. :D But she's a nice female counterpart for one.

sol_blade - January 8, 2005 03:21 AM (GMT)
uhhhh,Marlin????r u on???

Marlin ßeta - January 8, 2005 11:09 PM (GMT)
Whoa! Nice! I like it. Perhaps I can do something with this. Good harpy, Suicune.

sol that doesnt look like a counter part of a roc, more like a harpy (lady with wings and claws, basically a bird)

See that post wind? :D

SuicuneSol - January 9, 2005 12:13 AM (GMT)
If it at all means anything to anyone, that is artwork of one of the spirits from the upcoming game "Tales Of Rebirth".

Alright so she's not a female Roc, Wind. She looks like a harpy. But really, you can't tell if a Roc is female or not unless it is extremely exaggerated. You can't have a female Roc as a picture, because nobody would know that she is a female Roc. Therefore, by default, a Roc is male. And since you need a female counterpart, the closest thing you have to identifying one, is having a female human fused with feathers. Making her into a blend of bird and human, which is a harpy.

sol_blade - January 11, 2005 01:20 AM (GMT)
sooooo...where are u going to use the harpy ,marlin???

Marlin ßeta - January 11, 2005 02:13 AM (GMT)
Naw. I used one of Cindy's scans from the manga to get an image of Ivan. :} Besides, the harpy doesn't really fit anyway.

Swordmaster - January 11, 2005 06:06 PM (GMT)
*sigh* I'll try to to things like get good pics, quotes, poems, etc to keep this place alive.

sol_blade - January 16, 2005 04:48 PM (GMT)
w00t!!!how about a topic dedicated to pics and quotes!!!
