All right, you crazy kids. I am bringing this journal off of hiatus. I should have a couple of icon posts for you shortly. In the mean time, I am also going to be doing some layout etc changes to the journal. In an effort to make things easier on the eyes and more accessible. If you have any suggestions/complaints/compliments, feel free to give them. But this is all ongoing, and I might not even be done today. All depends on how long this takes and how confuzzled I get by coding.

	Does this mean I get to harass you for icons now? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	hot_fuzz 2009-07-05 07:32 pm UTC (link)
	If you ask in the right place. And I might even put yours as the top of the queue if you offer to help me with the tedious copy/paste that is updating my icon directory. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Girl, I will make you a directory from scratch on a custom Scribbld page with shiny codes and all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	...really? Cause...I have a lot of posts/people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vader 2009-07-05 07:39 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, well, my request is gonna be huge in response. It's of the Star Wars variety... Also, I could try to see about getting the directory on my actual subdomain (http://vanity.never-after.org) ... but I have yet to put anything up on it, so it'd take a little longer.

Ahahaha. So long as I can find the appropriate pictures I need to fill the request. Of course, if you're talking about icons from the actual movies, I'd assume there are plenty of places with screencaps. And as for actors? Well, they're easy enough.

And that would be pretty awesome. I know almost nothing about writing code, so I was trying to figure out how the eff I'd get this done. I AM going through right now and adding tags to all the posts. If that would help. Idk.

Oh, I definitely have websites with the picture links. I have an archive of images from the movies I want icon'd and have been trying to do it myself, but between two jobs and uh fifteen roleplays I got roped into joining, I haven't really found time to sit down and actually make more than 50 icons of anyone.

All right. I'm gonna see about what I can do for the website deal, since that's slightly more reliable than Scribbld's unpredictable "omg down time rtfn!"s.

	15 roleplays? Woooow. I have like...four or five. I just have a stupid job that likes to suck the soul out of me. But hopefully I could get through them soon enough for you. And yes, links are shiny. Awesome possum. You = my favourite person right now. Cause seriously, I was looking at some of the coding going "Oh my god. DO NOT GET IT" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'm pretty sure it's closer to 8 or 9 right now, but god knows I have 15+ characters to deal with... plus five thread replies and two journal entries to get up and replied to. fml. And you don't have to worry about the speed at which you do them. Just as long as I get them within a year, I'm cool. /too laid back?

Sounds sway. We have ~rpvents to thank for our meeting. I love coding – I just don't like designing, so I leave graphics up to other people most of the time because... I rock like that, idk.

lol That's still wow. I've been on an RP slowdown lately (the same reason I put this journal in hiatus) so I'm not really behind on a lot. But I do have enough to deal with once I kick things into gear again. I don't think I'll be joining any more games for a while. Not that much looks promising. Especially not for this character idea that won't.go.away. And lol yeah, I'll get them to you within a year. Promise.

Thank goodness for obnoxious people to vent about, eh? And yeah, I'm the opposite. The graphic stuff? I love doing. Coding? NO.

Damn, and I was going to see about dragging you to my game. It's a PB game? Post-apocalyptic? Political? Mix Star Wars, Firefly and V for Vendetta and you've got it? /tempting?

Damn straight. If you want any headers or shiny stuff, you best make 'em because I won't for fear of fucking it up. And... did you want maybe 100x70 sized images of every PB (cropped from an icon), or did you just want the icon itself as the link?

	hot_fuzz 2009-07-05 08:12 pm UTC (link)
	WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME? CAUSE ALL THOSE THINGS YOU'VE MENTIONED? I LOVE. SIGH. Headers I can make, fo sho. Just let me know when you'll need them and what sizes would work. As for the pictures, I was just going to use an icon itself for the link. A random-ish, pretty icon I've already made. Cuts down on the work, ya know? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You know you want it... /tempt-y spirit fingers Trufax, but I like to do things the hard way so I figured I'd ask. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	hot_fuzz 2009-07-05 08:22 pm UTC (link)
	Oooh, you and your tempt-y spirit fingers. Tell you what, link me to the game and I'll see if this fellow I have in mind could fit in. Maybe not, since he's a terribly NORMAL kind of guy. I'm lazy? So I do things the easiest way I can most times. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vader 2009-07-05 08:26 pm UTC (link)
	Here. We're looking for normal. And for political people. And for Raiders and Rebels and all kinds of straight up fuckery. Mostly normal though. We're just barely restarting. Ahahaha, see, I'm the guy who's like, "Pssh, why should we take the path through the forest... when we could go up and around the entire mountain? So much more fun."

Oh hai. I remember that game. I joined...once with a friend. But then said friend flaked on me, pissed me off, and I left. Not long enough to make an impact, of course. But yeaaah...This guy is fairly normal. Well, as normal as a Scotsman can be. I don't even remember if you had Scotland in that game...like, as in a place that wasn't 'rawr, zombieland'.

Ahahaha! I know people like that. I'm like "Eh, can we take a cab?"

Really? I don't... even remember, that's how awesome of a mod I am. We had sooo many people just flake out on us that I was all, "Fuck, who's keeping track? Whatever, forget it. KEEP MOVING, GUYS." at some point. Then... it got sucky and I said "fuck it" and we dropped it and now, six months after dropping it, we're picking it back up to focus on a year after the original game so it's less generic-PB-like.

lmao We don't do zombies but we didn't mark Scotland as being wiped out by the attacks, I don't think. Even if we didn't list it as a location, it'd still be possible to have characters from there seeing how it's the UK. We had a couple of mod-characters from Scotland and Ireland, actually. If my incomplete character roster is awesome enough, though, it should sway you into (re-)joining, y/n?

Take a cab through the mountains... I want to meet you now... and go hiking with you just to see if we can actually get a cab to go through the mountains.

Eh, I wasn't there for too long. I had an RDJ PB, that's what I remember. But just got pissed at my friend for BEGGING me to join the game, then just disappearing, as they are prone to do. AND I KNOW THERE ARE NO ZOMBIES. I was just being...well, me. Braaaainnnns. Ehem. But yeah. So long as he could be at least FROM there, not necessarily living there (and that would actually work, since the little history/plot I have in mind for him involves his moving). I SHALL CONSIDER IT. AFTER I GO BUY GROCERIES AND FISH.

Well, ~I~ can get a cab in the mountains. I don't know about normal people.

	Really..? I don't... remember ever having any RDJs except for the mod-controlled NPC RDJ we had for a while there. But yeah, sounds super shiny, though there's no need to try joining right away. I'm still working on re-writing the new applications, because our current application process is super gay. Who said I was normal? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ahahaha, SEE? That must be how briefly and insignificantly I was there. I don't even remember a character name, to be honest with you. Oh well. And I know you're not taking them right now. I just meant that I'll think about it. I'm not promising anything. Though I do love a PLOT-filled game. Rather than the "Oh noes, my BF looked at another girl" crap that fills so many games lately.

No one said you were normal. Heck, maybe YOU could get a cab in the mountains. Who knows?

	vader 2009-07-05 08:58 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I wandered from plot games and ended up in three different PB games... one of them had "big plots" revolving around some guy cheating on his girlfriend who happens to be inexplicably five months pregnant out of the blue. It got real boring real fast. I could probably get a Greyhound up there. (Reply to this) (Parent)
