You got it. I get happy when our names dropped here too ;)

I am trying to add a lot more content to a lot of the more informative pages currently to try to get more search engine hits. SEO is rather involved :)

Yeah I have several mythos themed books. One which has been published and one that will be in a month or so. i think a place with links to the books by writers on this site is a great idea and very useful for all concerned.

Despite individual publishing I think what would benefot more to ToD would not be mentioning it in separate author's books but in a collective book that includes all authors & artists represented here.

As a new writer and new to the Temple of Dagon, I have to ask if this went anywhere.

If anyone who is connected with publishing is reading this, I will submit some of my work for publishing free of charge - purely to say I've been published. Some of it, however, particularly 'Lure of the Kraken' and '...Mountain' (see my section in the featured writers) I'd like to save for proffesional publishing, and 'Sirius' was written especially for Temple of Dagon, so I'd like it to stay here and here only. Anything else I've written/am writing, I will willingly give into an anthology wage-free. (Yes, I'm a little desperate to get the wheels turning)

Jesus, Atlantean Publishing is putting together a King in Yellow anthology, and are still looking for contributors.

I am willing to do any blatant self-promotion for the site if it is needed anywhere ;)

Nicodemus, thanks for the info. Oh, and Al, while I'm posting, what in the blue blazes is the bar under the avatars for? When it fills up (with X many posts) do the stars align or something? What happens?

By the by, where's the address for submissions to that King in Yellow anthology? I've a few alterations in mind for 'Thorn Within' to make it fit the Hastur canon quite well, I think.

EDIT: Nevermind. They should make that 'back' button more obvious - believe it or not, there's a downside to being foolproof.

The bars are just the forum 'rank' feature. They were in the old layout too, but red.

It really means nothing.. it is just based on how many posts you have. There is also the text ranking, e.g. Nicodemus is a neophyte whereas you are an occultist. It has been so long since I set that up, I don't remember what all the ranks are. :)

I need to adjust the blue in it though.. it does not quite match.

No, I know that much. But, when it get to be filled up, is that just the highest rank, or do we win a prize?

When it's finally full, you go mad and get sacrificed to Mother Hydra. Al is pretty generous that way. :cthulhu1:
