Who's in charge of banner ad text?

[Quartermoon]

The Middle Earth d20 banner ad is kind of sad. I mean, it's a fan site, right? But the text is wrong.

"One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne..."

I really can't imagine Sauron sitting on anything.

Sorry if this is annoying. But I really love that poem.

It messes up the meter, too.

This blasphemy must be stopped!

Did you know that you can sing the poem to the tune of "The Yellow Rose of Texas"?

Or is that anything by Emily Dickinson?

I told Michael Morris about it, and his response was, " Everyone's a critic."

Of course, he should have said, "Everyone is an editor."

Butwhat do I know?

Ok, Ok, I'll fix it tonight and upload it next time I'm at a Flying J, but no later than this weekend.

/me grumbles something about people only noticing mistakes and not things done correctly...

 

[Michael Morris]

Ok, here's a corrected version...

Ok, here's a corrected version...

its an X ^_^

Ok, here's a corrected version...

www.enworld.org/forums/images/merpbanner.gif would probably work better.

Ok, here's a corrected version...

Hey, did anyone else notice that the Elf, Dwarf, and Dark Lord lines all finish with three dots, but the Mortal line only has two?

I don't really understand why the Elf and Mortal lines open with speech marks... with no closing speech marks anywhere...?

Edit - huh. There were no speech marks on the original banner with the incorrect wording. And the dots were right, too.

-Hyp.

Perhaps you can, but I cannot.

And really, no punctuation is needed. Ellipses or quotation marks, I mean.

But as long as the wording (and therefore the meter) is correct, I am happy.

See? -->

So thanks.
