[QUOTE="Calithena, post: 4215472, member: 46859"] Hi there - Otherworld Miniatures and Fight On! are having an adventure contest this summer. I sent the 'scoop' with the button on the front page - not sure if that's right. I also tried to post it in the appropriate forum (submissions? something like that) but ran in to a problem. Our announcement has lots of picture links, the ones to my photobucket account work but the ones to Richard's company site (Otherworld Miniatures) don't come through. Please advise what I can do about the picture problem and where I should post, etc. Thank you so much for your help and the great site! Here's the text of the ad if that is useful: [img]http://www.otherworld.me.uk/images/shared/omlogo.jpg[/img] and [img]http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d164/Calithena/greenlogo.png[/img] are proud to announce our first joint adventure contest!
