Lemme get this straight... You want introverts to say "Hi"...

Drayco84 · January 24, 2010, 11:42:00 AM

Despite the fact that a good number of them have painful, debilitating shyness?! Ugh...

Anywho, love both DMFA and Castlevania RPG. Thanks to DMFA, I finally worked up the courage to make my own website (http://dragonoftwilight.net) to host a novel I've been working on for the past year or so, (Another +1 to the lives Amber's destroyed!) And I've noticed something very important... I'm lacking visitors!

So yes, this post boils down to "Look at me! Not here but over there!" and some shameless self-promotion. (I'm also complaining about calling attention to myself, yet I'm calling even more attention to myself! My brain is obviously broken!)

Mmm.

Are you joining us, and merely mentioning your site, or are you deliberately breaching the rules which, as a new signer, you have read?

Since they're in the T&Cs you agreed to in order to get here, and they're linked at the top of every page...

Let me think here for a minute.

Drayco84 · January 24, 2010, 01:21:27 PM

Joining and merely mentioning. (Otherwise I would've tried to give a plot synopsis or something...)

EDIT: I also have a hard time beginning conversations.

EDIT 2: I've also had about six hours of sleep and I'm pretty sure the caffeine levels in my blood are nearing toxic levels. ANd I'm saying this because I'm feeling SO FRIGGIN' HAPPY! (Somebody shoot me with a tranquilizer, please!)

llearch n'n'daCorna · January 24, 2010, 05:14:29 PM

Okay, I guess that's a reasonable excuse. ;-]

You might want to ease off on the caffeine, there, though. While we don't mind the odd post that is garbled, continual posting in that frame of reference tends to get the mods looking at you grumpily. Just so you know...

I'll keep that in mind. I hear the banhammers 'round here really hurt... (Not that I've ever been hit with a banhammer before, btw.)

llearch n'n'daCorna · January 24, 2010, 05:47:14 PM

Nah. I've used the banhammers lots of times and they've never hurt me.

... oh, wait. You mean when they hit you?

Lysander · January 24, 2010, 07:12:51 PM

Hey, Drayco. Seems like a well enough introduction to me. I never even made an intro thread when I first appeared

. So, welcome to this interesting place...

It's as the saying goes, "this is going to hurt you a lot more than it hurts me." I mean, it's direct and honest. I appreciate that.

Drayco84 · January 25, 2010, 02:14:00 PM

Suwako · January 25, 2010, 02:50:09 PM

Pft, shyness has no place on the internets.

I mean, ... no personal stuff!

Oh godz, it hurts.

Drayco84 · January 25, 2010, 04:04:45 PM

In a somewhat related matter, anyone know how to shrink an avatar pic?

EDIT: Nvm, I got it.

Paint
Paint.net
Photobucket ( it has tools )

there are also image shrinkers MENTIONED in the Rules section.
Provided by someone. *cough*

Bottom.

Drayco84 · January 25, 2010, 04:56:26 PM

Found it, it's all the way at the bottom but I found it. (Avatar is 120 x 95 px, so it's in compliance.)

EDIT: Oh, and I don't have paint. Plus, GIMP is too powerful for me to figure out how to use... (Regardless, it won't take pics off my HD. I tried that first...)

Hence the 'Bottom' in my prior comment.
