    GoW: sorry for using your capital's name.
    Eli: sorry for plagiarising your avatar. It wasn't really "donated", I just copied it, but "Artwork donated by Eli" looks good on the cover IMHO.
    It's all in good humor.

        This actually was reviewed by the Imperial City Times. UnOrthO was pretty quick to get a paper going.

          GhengisFarb, as an expert computer graphics guy: what do you think of the graphics?
          It's not the best, I only put an hour into the concept and Photoshop work, but I'd like to hear some critique anyway.

          Edit: I tried to make the headline look like it was made of gold. Only later I realized that it looks more like wood. Maybe I'll edit it tomorrow.

            I think it looks good, all of your graphics look very professional.

              I think the text looks a bit too fancy (texture, bevel, and drop shadow), at least in contrast with the extremely simple red border around the text box.

                I now have a theory :
                Grog was not defeated ; The Immortal pushed Grog from the top of the mountain into certain death!
                Señor Nuclearis Winterius the III,
                Diplomat with the Voxians, and also
                Señor Pablo Winterius, missionary Bishop and Archbishop of the Roleplay team

                  That counts as 'defeat', does it not?

                    GhengisFarb: thanks! That comes as a great compliment from you.
                    Ixnay: absolutely, I agree with that point. I think I'm going to redesign it today, this time with some book covers before my eyes.

                        So it's a picture book? Or is literature how your citizens are heating their homes these days?

                          It's probably a picture book... Grog was illiterate so there's not much he could have said.

                          I heard he spent a lot of time doing cave drawings of wierd futuristic tracked machines...

                            Well, you're not missing much... most of what he said was "GROG WANT TANK!!" and "GROG WANT MEAT!!" and "GROG WANT UNDERFLOOR HEATING!!", whatever that is...

                              I wonder if he said "GROG WANT SWORD", 'cause that's the only thing he got in the end. Ironically enough he got it from Vox.
