Calling All Crusader Writers!

You know those pictures of you that I put in the little sidebar-bios next to your articles?

Well, most of those pictures suck. They're low-res, and half of them are out of focus. I had to use a variety of artistic filters in Photoshop just to make you people look presentable.
So if you have any better pictures of yourselves that I can use, please feel free to send them along to me.

Also, some of the bios themselves are a little short, which means empty space on the pages -- and every square inch of empty space means an extra fifty rioters outside the castle here, and we're running low on boiling oil.

So please feel free to send along lengthier bios, too. Brag about yourselves a bit. (You know you want to.)

Well, since I'm not one of them... tough.

Ahhh, but you could be! I imagine Steve might be happy to receive some new articles, if they're well-written stuff that people will like. Give it a shot!

Just be prepared to send a nice picture, too. I've been give permission to fabricate author photos out of thin air if I want -- and I've got the spells to do it, too -- so the next crappy photo I see is going to get a treatment that'll make it so ugly, Gollum will look like Jessica Alba by comparison.

Don't mess with a Graphic Artist, man.

Steve has gotten stuff from me, even told me it would go in, and then... well, nothing. Doesn't matter, really, I keep on submitting.

Heh, I do take offense to "if its well written," but fully agree with "if people will like it. Hehe.

I have a few articles submitted, also. Steve seemed to indicate that he would publish one of them, as it fit in with the same theme of an article that Davis planned to do in a future issue. So, if my picture is required I'll provide one happily!

I submitted a bigger Bio but it got cut up. I'll see if I can dig up the full one again.
As for pics, well... My wife claims she has some GREAT ones to sub, but I dont' know if I trust her for that.
I'll see what I can do...

Hey 3rd eye,

Where do I send stuff? Do you have an email addy or should I just FTP it to the TLG site? If the latter, which forum?

I've just sent you my e-mail address in a PM, but uploading to the Troll Lord FTP will work too. Whichever is more convenient for you.

Im glad I havent submitted, Im too stupid-lookin' to have my pic in the Crusader, and I would PRAY that it was out of focus if I did

I'm happy with my pic and bio, though it should say "Endicott" instead of "Poughkeepsie" now.
