An Illustrative Offer

*scrabbles after Clueless...*

Helloooo and welcome! I don't know whether this will interest you, but I'm currently touting for artwork for a Planewalker release... If nothing else takes your fancy, can I suggest (read: 'beg pathetically') that you check out Desire & The Dead, the scenario design thread in question for a ton of NPCs (some already with illustrations) with fully worked up descriptions and personalities. There's also a dedicated Art Thread as well.

To be truly honest though, if I was feeling public spirited I'd suggest that Clueless or someone else try to pounce on you 'officially' for artwork for the PDF Planescape releases (as official as we usually get here, anyway...) Some of the (new?) major characters, perhaps

(if that's not what he's doing already)

Secondly, if you post up these character portraits on the site and they are appropriate anyway, I'd very happy if with your permission (and whoever character writup it is), to maybe include them anyway?

Thanks and welcome aboard!

Just to throw in even more options, the Ortho Project is getting to the point where we can seriously consider adding pictures. Portraits of the Octaves would be particularly awesome.

But, Ortho is a year or more from being releasable whereas rough the PSCS is all-but finished, and Desire and the Dead is almost done as well, and both desperately need pictures. So, unless something about Ortho really strikes an artist's fancy, I think illustrations can wait.

I'll start bandying this around a bit, I'm sure we can get some more folks in here.

What was the code you were using to link to the image?

That's cause we don't have that option - not on this server we don't I've been looking for solutions to that. What you need to do is host the image elsewhere and then use the IMG tags to link to the image.

Now for linking to it - that should work, assuming that wherever you're linking to doesn't do something odd like refuse to allow us to get the image. (If it's under password protection for example.) If you can post up what you were using to link I can try and figure out what went wrong.

Ok - I took a look at your link information and it looks completely correct. Which leads me to think that blogger is denying the link as a hot-linking security measure. Basically - your hosting solution doesn't want to display the image on a page that doesn't belong to itself.

Solution: Link to it as if it were a normal URL. People will have to click on it directly to view it, instead of seeing it embedded in the post - but it'll be viewable.

Alternatively you can find out if there's a setting you can change with your blog to allow hot-links from Planewalker.

In the meantime, the link form should be...

Your picture easily found here.

Nice picture by the way - I love the look on his face.
