Some more stuff.

Could you use your utility (or whatever you've used to find typoes) to see if there's an "Aeotian" anywhere? I remember seeing it somewhere, but couldn't find it later when "Aeosian" was a common spelling.

In "War of the Gods" You should reformat the Legend Lore results from the ghoul that was responsible for the divination muddling. Break the individual poem lines up onto seperate lines and add a blank line after it, so that it doesn't run into the next paragraph.

In Day One of the White Kingdom, there's a "careÑ". It's supposed to be a long hyphen. (hey, it's at the point in the story when I can actually look things up!)

*edit, and again* You might want to clean up Jobu's qoute in "Khelarin". The < deleted >s you took out make it really hard to understand.
Hmm, it seems to be a format thing on the boards too... "< deleted > tries to go into EZ code or something. hmm

*another edit*
There are two "Army Stopped" links to the same story. This appears on both the main chapter select (the one that's got the necropede pic) and the left hand side bar... made me wonder if I'd clicked the wrong link the first time.

*you guessed it* Scry in a whack: You should probably reformat Valendo's divination results at the top of the thing.

That's all the typoes for now. *edit* until more stories are posted I just hit Interlude.

Hey, stupid question, but are you planning on having a font change for the places that P-Kitty did? I allways thought it was a cool touch when the Gods talking stood out.

Oh, thanks for putting me in the credits, even though this is the kind of stuff that's easy to me. Would you believe that I found a typo in Of Sound Mind the day that it came out? I'm still waiting to see the Exotic warhammer that Lucius Krekket uses *grins mischieviously*

I've just come across an astonishingly pretty website and wanted to share it, even though it's not fantasy or RPG related.

The front page is pared clean to a point almost of dullness, but once you get inside to the meat, each page is remarkable.

Clean clean clean, and pretty, and readable, and interesting, and the navigation does everything it should. I am blown away with admiration.

I've just been through the XJ Kennedy pages, and highly recommend them.

Ashy--I've just returned from a visit to your site.

I am . . . lost.

Utterly destroyed.


I will now go forth and consider wisdom and beauty vaster than my imagination.

::chuckle::

Which one, Planewalker? If so, just wait until you see the re-redesgn! Seriously - thanks, that means a TON coming from you, Salia. Drop me an email and I would be more than happy to go over some tips and pointers for you... I'm really busy with real work and freelancing right now, but I can squeeze in some time for you, provided that you will tug on PC's ear and try and get me in a game sometime! My web skills PALE in comparison to my role playing skills!

Hope to hear from you soon!

I've made some minor cosmetic changes (which you can check out and give me feedback on if you like), and I'm starting to compile the Early Years Stories now. (About half finished, files not yet uploaded--hopefully up by early next week).

I can't remember who promised they'd send me more stuff, so if you have been working on anything you still want to send me, drop me a line so I don't repeat your work.

I know we only have a portion of Eversink and a portion of the White Kingdom stories up, so getting the rest of the stories posted next on my to do list. And then I have to add in all the auxiliary documents: charts, graphics, primary documents, photos of players, etc.
And then I really will begin to write up the Lost Episodes.

If you notice anything awkward or broken, drop me a line. Your monitor resolution, size or download time may differ substantially from mine, so I need to know if things look odd to you so I can adjust.

Forgive the overuse of the Aeos graphic--I'm using it as a placeholder for a few other graphics that aren't ready yet. I really need a "book cover" for the Eversink Chronicles, and I just haven't got anything I like enough yet.

Also, I've gone and used the "Necropede" by Littlejohn for the "White Kingdom" cover, even though the episode it appears in is near the end of Eversink. How upsetting is that to you?

Crunchy Web Design question: I'm not sure why I am always getting a space between table cells when I switch td classes. If anybody has any insights about how I get rid of the line between the bio and the portrait at
http://www.piratecat.info/spira/velendo.htm
let me know.

If you want to peruse the css, it's at

Crunchy Web Design answer:

It doesn't look like you've got anything affecting the actual table itself. Specifically, the cellpadding for that table needs to be set to 0. Otherwise, the two cells will always look like they're a few pixels apart.

Can you set the cell border to be white in color? While you wouldn't be getting rid of the line, you'd be camouflaging it...

 

[Ashy]

Yea, be sure all of your border sizes (in the td and table tags) are set to "0" - that should do it.

 

[Sialia]

Errrrrrgh.

NOW I finally get it.

The border = 0 declaration has to go in the main table or td decalration, not in the class declarations

I'd been putting it here, in every flavor I could imagine:

.toc{width:450px;text-indent:0px;background-color:#FDF5E6; border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0px;border-width:0px;padding-left:1cm;padding-right:1cm;;margin-right:10px;background: url(parchmentpalestrip.jpg)}


where it does no good at all. Now I have it in
table{border-collapse:collapse}

where it works swell. But of course, for the WHOLE DARN SITE.

Now that I know what to do, I have to decide whether I want to do it.

 

[Ashy]

Yup, you've got it Salia. HTML is kinda funky that way, you can slap a border=0 option in a tr tag and not only does nothing happen, but you don't even get an error message!

I would either go for no space, or a small space (border=1) with a nice contrasting border color.

But that's just me...

 

[carpedavid]

The border = 0 declaration has to go in the main table or td decalration, not in the class declarations

Err... not exactly. You can create a class declaration and then apply it specifically to that table, as opposed to all of the tables. As your HTML stood when I looked at it last, you had no class applying to that table at all. So instead of putting the "border = 0" declaration in the "table" tag, you could create a class called "tablenoborder" or something like that, and apply it only to the tables that you want to have no border.
