Well, got 2.5 games in recently, and, yes, I've been slacking on commenting about them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)
My well has gone dry for writing ability. I'm getting better, however. Anyhow, the second game introduced a new character, who I brought in due to Feng Shui stating he and the other player were the best to do the job, where they were Ninja Redecorators! Not really much to report on it. The second game ended like this. Sort of. Let's just say there's some spin going on here, and leave it at that. |

For future reference, all west of the Rockies radio and TV stations start with a "K".

Isn't the delimiter between "W" stations and "K" stations the Mississippi River?

I didn't create the station, I inherited it from the group that started the blog previously and then handed it over to me.
I'm reusing a lot of their art as I'm not an artist. |

Ha! "Trish Donaldson"... that even sounds like a bimbo network affiliate-TV journalist's name. Well done.
If you're ever interested you can make your own nifty art like that using stock photo services such as istockphoto.com. You can download 72 dpi photos for $1.00 an image. |

I think that's how the group did it originally. I can't do art on my own at all. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif)
Anyone offering to help with that??? |

If you can provide or purchase the images you would like to use I believe that I or many of the other designers/possessors of Photoshop on this board would be willing to assist. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Blame CGL for that. Their insistance to release book after book is keeping us all poor (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

CGL isn't to blame for this one, although they do contribute to it.
Runner's Companion! GOOD BOOK! |

Here's another place for decent stock photos that are free for use (actually found this site through Computer Arts magazine, so it's legit) - Stock Xchng |

There are also the Wikimedia Commons with the Mayflower Search Engine with a lot of Creative Commons images.

I've got some experience working with Photoshopping for Shadowrun (see link in sig.)
What sort of help are you looking for? And by the way: Happy Birthday! |

I run an in-game, in-character blog known as "From The Shadows" that I picked up after another group fell apart.
My own group is now the reason things get posted there. At least when it comes to news reports and the like. But Logos are needed for a lot of posts, along with whatever else folks will think is cool. |

But what kind of help do you need? The images or some help to do them yourself?
For the former, I'm sorry but right now I don't even have time to work on Another Runner in the Night, so I won't be able to help. For the latter, I can still give you some advice or a few hints. |

If you could give me a quick description of the company or organization the logos represent I'd be happy to take a stab at them. If you want TV shots or ads or something I'd need you to provide the stock imagery but I could do the rest. I think it would be fun.

Oh, and one of my Player's got his Write On and did this up!
Based on what happened during the first game I ran for them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
