Hi there, this seems to be a good place to start. I'm looking forward to writing here. Does anyone know where I could find a good picture for my avatar? I've done some searched but found nothing so far.

Hi Autumn, welcome to Althanas! If you don't mind me asking, how did you find the site?

As for the avatar, what kind of picture are you looking for?

Myao Myao~! Welcome to Althanas!

Stick around and write with us! If you have somethings you want, be they generic or custom-designed, drop by at the Bazaar and get them when you can! Remember that the 300 GP in parentheses are Bazaar credits that will expire in a month.

Also, if you have any questions you can't find browsing the FAQ or the Your Word forum, Moderators are only a PM away! :D

Oh, yes. Have some cookies! *Gives you a batch of fresh-baked Raisin-Oatmeal Cookies*

EDIT: Don't listen to Elijah. That only applies to people without cute furry avatars, Nya~! :p

And if you're looking for an avatar, there's the Creative Endeavors where the Althanian Artists usually gather and show off their stuff. However, one very good artist needed to go on leave, one is generally working overtime on his graphic novel, one is AWOL and one is waist-deep in Moderator Duty.

So... Well, you can post a request in the Creative Endeavors and you might have some interesting submissions to look through. Who's to know what kind of service you might get? ;)

Welcome to you. As far as the avatar --- I've always been partial to google, but I've also had luck with www.deviantart.com and www.elfwood.lysator.liu.se

Both are fantasy art sites where the art is from amateurs. Again though most of mine are from google :D

I found out that I find the best avatars when I don't look for them. But that's perhaps just me. Either way, welcome to Althanas, Autumn.

Welcome to Althanas!

Any who, please remember to keep your hands and arms to yourself at all times. If you see something disturbing, well, come up with something equally disturbing. Baked goods are to be avoided at all costs. Have fun! :)

Welcome to Althanas!

Please keep your arms and legs inside the forum at all times or they may be removed by rabid, zombified characters. Do not feed the following people: Slayer of the rot, Santhalas, Adventwings, Karuka Tida, The Valkyrie, Serilliant and Elijah Morendale for they may become dependant on you afterwards and are hard to get rid of. Any screams you may now be experiencing are the sounds of dying characters. Do not be alarmed for they shall be revived in new and inventive ways the following thread. Have a nice day. ^^

*offers you a plate of cookies, which is good! But some of them are poisonous...which is bad.*

Aww, darnit. I'm on the list again, Nya~ :p

Ignore the list. Do feed me, Nya~

Don't you just love Althanas?

Poor Advent, I would feed you but I'm afraid of Witchy hunting me down. I live in the same country as her after all.

Single enough to know drowesses are hot :cool:

Santhalas: A friend recommended the sight to me, because I like writing. I think I might need to adjust my style a little for this forum, though. I'm not used to writing in conjunction with other people.

My... everyone certainly is... friendly... here.

*takes one of Witchblade's cookies*

I'll take my chances on the poison. If you don't hear from me in three days, send more cookies. With an antidote.

edit- I even found an avatar I like, the only problem is her skin should be olive... oh well. use your imaginations.

Photoshop. ;)

And it's good to know which way you roll, Autumn. And it's not so hard when you find out that a quick PM can make all of that turn into a very elaborate Cooperative Writing. :)

*Munches on the Baked Alaska*

...Hey, what is a Baked Alaska, anyways?

I prefer a big jawbreaker to most other delectable treats.

Welcome to Althanas as well.

*gives Artifex a Jawbreaker roughly the same size as his head. Since it's made by Willy Wonka its also an everlasting gobstopper.*
