thank you very much, I wasn't sure how my art was gonna turn out for this but this morning I sat down and whipped those up. currently I am working to try and get artwork closer to the book. I believe Talon is the name of the artist I'm looking capture. I don't think I'll get too close though. just as a note the only hard part about these images is that they are renders and its not always easy to find the right clothing and props or most especially characters. I will do my best to hunt these things down and I do have quite a library but while it is that I can in fact make most of these things, sept 30 is too close a deadline for too much of that.
as for the article on music I actually agree with your decisions. sleep and I have not been on speaking terms all this week and so its been hard to gauge some things. When I asked that question I was recalling a gothic magazine I used to collect called "dark realms". They featured articles on likely unknown music and it was helpful looking back threw those for my games. In addition the person I am acquainted with, did their first 2 cds with Midnight Syndicate and I happen to be seeing her a few weekends in the coming months. so in my near drunken tired stupor I was like:
"I know , I could do an article like they used to have in that magazine. that would be cool!... Screw you alarm clock, I'm already awake!!!"
Well, a lot of us are big Midnight Syndicate fans here, so if you do find anything interesting out, feel free to post it in a thread on these forums!
As for the art, don't worry about copying Talon's style. Lots of us do love his style (check this thread out if you haven't already: http://fraternityofshadows.com/forum/vi ... f=1&t=7228 ) but yours is distinctive and really cool as is.

I'd be tempted to submit part of the short story I posted in the Fan Fiction section. I'm unsure if you'd be interested in that or not, though I saw the discussion of fiction submissions earlier in this thread.
I haven't read your story yet, so I don't know if there's some specific reason why we wouldn't want it. (not likely). If you'd like to see it in QtR, feel free to submit it!

To the fraternity and the members of this board...
I am sorry to not have sent in my articles for this years OtR. I can claim excuses and other circumstances that forced my absence from the board and my writers block as well as other events that prevented it but ultimately I am just sorry I could not finish them all up and turn them in before life caught up with me.
In the end I just thought it was important to explain why I could not send them in.
Thank you everyone else who contributed in this years effort and the members of the Fraternity that put this thing together every year. This site is important to me in a lot of ways and I am always thinking about them even when I am absent from them. I have far too many articles that I need to finish for you and that I plan to change like always.
This is just one of the many things in my life I am working on and I hope to get running on all cylinders again.
But thank you everyone from the bottom of my heart for being the best community on the internet!

Have no fear, AGT, there's always next year. And trust me, we have plenty of material for this year. Looks like one for the record books. Can't wait for y'all to see it.

I'd like to say that now is too late

It's probably a bit soon. We'll start talking themes for next year in a few months, probably. But remember, the theme is only a suggestion. We always welcome anything Ravenloft-related.
