Some new stuff on the site you might look out for:
I revamped the “Wiki” page to look like a Cortex terminal. I think it works pretty well. Don’t be intimidated by the Chinese—if you hover your mouse over the buttons you see the English translation.
On the Wiki is a new page (found at the bottom of the screen) called “How We Roll”. This is where I’ll put rules variants and such so that (a) I can remember them and (b) you can be aware of them. There are two links there now for “Hacking” and for “Computers” that may be of interest.
I have also added the “Neccom” to the list of Items. I’ve also converted it to the new computer rules I’m using. You might take a look and make sure it jives with what you believe you have.
I’ve also revamped the Crew page with some file icons that I think are pretty neat. Go to the “Wiki” page and click on the button for “Crew”. You’ll see what I’m talking about.
Also, the latest Adventure Log is up, detailing our last session.
The reason your last comment isn’t posted here is because you did it as a Forum. It is posted in the Forum area under “Pictures”. I can try to answer the question there because the forum is better for a long thread than “Comments”.
How come my last comment/question I posted isn’t here? I asked how to post pictures. I have came across a site on designing of guns and thought I would post Alliance and Independence assault rifles along with Sophie. I can also do the same with pistols, rifles, shotguns, etc.
There are a couple of ways we can do a journal for a character.
I can set up a page/space for you to add your entries yourself. You’d create a page for each journal entry as you go. You can also write the journal entry and send it to me and I’ll post it.
FYI: I’ve added a new page to the Wiki: News from the Cortex. There are various news stories concerning events in the campaign posted there that may be of interest.
There is also a new one talking about the Christmas Day bombing of Wayland Station that may be of particular interest…
However, I did not say that this egg had a firefly beside. That was the previous egg. If you look at the post about this egg, I gave you a picture of what to look for:
I’m glad you left your Calender however, that doesn’t change the fact that this is day 4 in the last week or so that I have searched for this “elusive” Easter Egg and I still call BS!!
Easter Eggs is stupid, I hates the Easter Eggs; stupid fat hobbitizes stole my Easter Egg…my precious.
Hey, how come Amy is the only one not responding for the 18th, she standing us up again?
I’m not sure about the issue of “not letting you leave comments”—I’m looking at all 14 of them. In different fonts and designs.
I’m not sure about the troubles leaving comments. I just type in the window and hit submit. The ones with the huge fonts are generally because you’re using the style stuff in the toolbar. I generally keep it simple unless I’m designing a page.
You can’t tab for a paragraph. It’s better website formatting to use block (non-tabbed) paragraphs with lines in between anyway.
Sorry you guys seem to be having so much trouble. But I can see all of your comments just fine.
I have to agree, there is no Easter Egg, its a trick by the man to make us waste time and money buying horses to search for this mysterious Easter Egg, then buy horses to carry the meal for the horses, then buy more horses to pull the cart to carry this non-existent Easter Egg, then pay some pirate to ship all the horses, cart, and meal to the other side of the gulf, just to find out that the mysterious Easter Egg was a fake; and besides, every horse on this side of the gulf comes equipped with a saddle bag full of standard Easter Eggs!

Seriously, if you can figure out a picture … Shedrick or I can help you get it posted on your profile.
Do you want an actual photo of a real person (not you)? Or a symbol/drawing/etc.? I have been known to use Harley Quinn as my profile pic. I personally like grabbing my favorite characters from shows …
In that case, it could literally be anything: a favorite movie character, a symbol, a motto…anything. You just have to save it as a .jpg. and then upload it to your profile.
Amy added an additional link to the bottom of her character page for her journal. The original links are on the “Crew” page: http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/swan-song/wikis/the-crew
The Crew Journals are at the bottom of the Crew page under the heading “Crew Journals”:

Hey, where are the “crew journals”, I found Mad’s at the bottom of her page, but I don’t seem to have one and Butcher’s is gone?
It doesn’t look like it in the comment for some reason, but also put a space between Motto and the h3.
Since there’s not a special box for it, you could just set up a heading within the bio and then put it underneath:
“h3. Motto
This is where the character’s motto goes. Be sure and leave a blank line between the heading and the motto."
If Colt has a motto/philosophy, how do I add that to his bio?
Also new is the expanded “Alliance” and “Independents” pages on the “Organizations” list. I’ve been having fun playing with my own version of history…

How do I start a “colt” blog/journal?

I always try to ovoid bad eggs—including bad egg puns….
Okay. It was a bad joke.
Hey, Butcher! Were you egg-static when you found it? ;-)
Glad you found the egg!
However, I did not say that this egg had a firefly beside. That was the previous egg. If you look at the post about this egg, I gave you a picture of what to look for:
New Shiny Egg
OMG, I actually found that damn Easter Egg, and there is NOT a picture of a Firefly next to the damn Easter Egg.
I’m glad you left your Calender however, that doesn’t change the fact that this is day 4 in the last week or so that I have searched for this “elusive” Easter Egg and I still call BS!!
I have officially responded to the 18th now!
Not sure why Amy hasn’t responded but as far as I know we’re still on…though after she gets home from work.
Someone found the calendar function… :)
Easter Eggs is stupid, I hates the Easter Eggs; stupid fat hobbitizes stole my Easter Egg…my precious.

Once again, this damn Easter Egg hunt is pissing me off.
I deleted the tentative Serenity session for 12/11—looks like Amy is not going to be available to play.
We’ll figure out a new date/time next get-together…
Check out my new avatar, classic sick puppy! Fragg’n Sweet!
I heard back from Micah at Obsidian Portal. It looks like the comments are fixed. Yay!
And it’s not the Firefly picture on the home page either …
There’s a picture of a Firefly ship next to the easter egg, if that helps anyone …
Okay…I’ve deleted the duplicate comments and am contacting support…
The Easter Egg is not a hoax. It is an effort to actually get you to explore the site. So go explore the site!
Those that can’t find it need to put on their big kid pants and SEARCH!
Okay…I think the site is having issues. I’ve never had this pop-up window come up. Weird.
Wow…guys…

I am having trouble with comments also
It won’t let me put a comment on

Google images is a great place to start looking …

I want an avatar, not an actual photo
You don’t like Witness Protection SickPuppy? I may have a picture of you around here someone if you want to use your actual photo ….
Do you want an actual picture of you or an an avatar of some sort?
You could take a picture of yourself or if you have one saved as a file we could crop it and upload it…
I need a picture for my profile, somebody help me!!!!!
