Welcome to the Layonara forums!
Layonara is so much more than a game. We started off as a tabletop Dungeons and Dragons campaign more than a decade ago. Since then we have developed into a fantasy world with as much compelling and engrossing detail as you will find anywhere.
Our current showcase is a Neverwinter Nights version of Layonara, where our world comes to life in a finely polished persistent world which you can play free of charge. These forums are set up to support and accentuate our player's experiences, but it goes far beyond that.
After years of passionate effort, our world is so well developed, so detailed, so refined that any of the handbooks, maps, historical accounts, legends, descriptions of artifacts, creature reports, character biographies, short stories, novels, movies and original art which populate these forums can surely serve as resources or inspiration for your own fantasy endeavors, whatever they may be. And our world is endlessly evolving, so resources are frequently added and updated.
There are also years of sage advice and commentary on role-playing, gaming and online community development stored in these forums. If camaraderie is what you seek, we offer that too. Our community is as active and supportive as you're likely to find on the internet. In short, these forums are a resource for you to use for whatever purpose or project brought you here.
We're confident that you will find what you are looking for, and likely, substantially more.
Please be our guest and browse around the forums which are available to you. As you do, keep in mind that you are sampling only a portion of what Layonara has to offer. Membership in our community is free, and allows you to establish a Layonara identity to pose your questions and share your thoughts on the forums.

Portrait for Orion
Is there any particular reason these images are upside down? Let's not get into the whole "no up in space" thing for this one, heh. Meizter had the same thing going on with Gro's portraits. Weird.
Unless you have a special connection to the specific image you've chosen, can I make a suggestion of a slightly different image?
Here are your image and another image for comparison:
[img=http://home.alltel.net/oily45/layonara/portraits/OrionM1.jpg][img=http://home.alltel.net/oily45/layonara/portraits/OrionM2.jpg]
If you look at the original on the left, our favorite hunter is looking kind of skinny compared with his clone on the right, and is a little less colorful, more like what our eyes would see on a winter night. The other image has mighty Orion's stars in a more correct relation to each other, and lets us see the the wonderful colors of the stars - the red of Betelguese, and the blues of Rigel, Bellatrix, Saiph, Alnitak, Alnilam, Mintaka, and Meissa.
I have images in all sizes for both versions, and I'll use whichever set you prefer and toss the others.

RE: Custom Portraits
Missed this somehow, but wow....thanks Gulnyr.
The new improved one does look better.
If you can send them to me or repost with the downloads I will really appreciate it.
Regarding the upside down, for some reason when I put them in my potraits, without making them upside down it got turned. So to fix that I turned them and then NWN turned them again and I got the right result.
And after all that turning I am feeling upside down.
Okay, let's try this again, the server was giving me fits uploading my picture, and I'm not sure how to make is show up,(the jog anyway) but let me try and upload it becuase it's the one I want to use. It's really cool. I couldn't get the H.tga file to attach, so what should I do? it's 252 compressed, 385 normal.
