It's been quiet around here lately, but that does not mean that no work has been done.
Actually, quite a flurry of activity has been taking place, and that activity has bred one very important announcement.
As you all know, one of our biggest hurdles has been in finding someone to do code work for us.
Code work is prolly the least glamorous, most demanding aspect of the whole shebang, and it's tough to find folks who have the kind of time, on a volunteer basis, to do that kinna work.
So....the obvious solution to that problem is to pony up and pay someone to roll up sleeves and get it done, and I am happy to announce that we have agreed in principle to hire someone to do the code work, and said person is geared up to start on August 1st.
I believe in our project.
More now than ever.
And if I gotta fork out cash from my own pocket to help bring it to life....so be it. It's something I'm willing to do....no...something I'm downright EXCITED to do!
Don't break out the bottles of champagne yet, because we're still some distance from that date, but if all goes well, we've got.....
T - Minus 142 Days!
* Disclaimer - Said person's name will not be announced till he's actually on board, at which time we'll have a great, huge virtual party. 
Oh...and by the way....I think a fitting title for said person would be the "First Citizen of Candle'Bre"

I haven't seen any of the new screenshots on the website, and I must say WOW those look terrific. I love the interface for the city view! I like to take periodics look in the forum to see what's new, and it's been a long time since I last looked. Good luck with the new programmer.
Btw, I have a suggestion on the map view. I think the outlining border with the stone wall and vine it would be less intrusive if that weren't there. It seems to only take up space that would be better suited for seeing more of the map.

Hey all, been a long time since I've been here -- as in more than two years. A new job, a new city, and a new house, but I'm still interested in Candle'Bre!

30 days for what exactly? Just because the new guy might be starting then won't magically make the game happen, I think... if the progress during the last six months or so has been nonexistent, adding one guy to do some coding won't really mean a thing for us "fans", since the results won't be visible until after another 3-6 months or so. Right?

and I have to say that the presence of the "viney stuffs" is my idea entirely, and something I've lobbied hard to keep in.
