So much for keeping up with this. I skipped last week's, so now I'm posting it in the middle of the week. Silly me.

Big Updates
Default Avatars
I've installed a new mod that assigns avatars to members by default, if they don't have an avatar. I can either make a bland, ugly one to remind people to chose their own, or have it pick an avatar at random from our gallery. I selected the later. So, if you have not chosen an avatar and log in to find out you have one, then you can chose to keep or change it.

Forum Theme
I'd like to get our purple theme back, and I need someone to help redesign it. I tried doing it myself, but I just don't have the time to learn through trial and error to design a new CSS. If you are familiar with designing a forum theme, or know someone that is and would be willing to do it for us out of the goodness of their heart, please, help me!

I would also like to have a theme for our gallery that matches the rest of the site. If anyone can do one or the other, please, let me know.

News from Around the Forum
Adventures in Lodoss
We're always looking for new characters! Feel free to make a new character, or take an old character of yours out of retirement for this one. You can pursue your own quest, or join someone else's. Remember, you can always contact me if you need help getting started! I have plenty of characters if you want someone to bring out a companion for you.

In S02, Jereidon could probably use a tank on his side. We have a thief, a ranger, a cleric (of Myrii), and a mage, so we need our fighter!

In S03, Niklas will soon join the Mercenaries' Guild to make some money, and he'll be hired on a job. If you have a mercenary you want to bring out, or if you want to play a character with good intentions who would need to hire a mercenary, go ahead and bring them in here.

Game and Site Development
I'm thinking ahead to a new theme for the site, so I'd like a little feed back on the pictures I've considered for the site design in this thread.

Character Updates
Remember, this board is the place to post any additions or changes to your character. Use the Character Update Threads message to find your character's thread.

Also, I need some help finding good quotes for the canon character pages. If you can think of any, post them on the Canon Character Quotes thread.

Character/Players Needed
There are currently no PCs that need new players, but if anyone wants to control a canon character if and when they're needed, check out this thread, Players Needed for NPC Canon Characters.

Update on the default avatar: I decided to go with only one avatar. The randomizer kept changing avatars, though I thought it would just assign one permanently. So, here's the default avatar:
