Poetic License / The Warrior - A Work in Progress
« on: March 09, 2008, 01:51:17 am »
Howdy folks.  I just thought I'd share a story I've been working on for years here.  It's only a small party of the larger piece, and if you all enjoy the beginning, I'll post more as it gets revised to a phase that I think it's showable.  Hope you like and and PLEASE leave feedback of any kind.  :)

General Discussion / Layo For Dummies - HOW TO SCREEN SHOT
« on: January 30, 2008, 08:48:10 am »
Hello!
 
 It has come to my attention that a number of players here do not know how to procure Screenshots, which are pictures of EXACTLY whats on you screen, hence, a Screenshot. Now, when I say exactly I mean EXACTLY, taskbar, windows, menues, whatever, and if you run NWN in full screen, that means ALL of NWN.
 
 Now, how to?
 
 [LIST=1]
  • If you have a PC laptop (running windows or Linux or something else) look at the keyboard. Next to the backspace button should be six buttons : Insert, Home, Page Up (top three/row), Delete, End, Page Down (bottom three/row). Now, keep looking to the right. There should be Three MORE buttons ALL by themselves ABOVE the "NUM Pad" (it looks like a calculator). These three buttons are: Print Scrn, Scroll Lock, and Pause/Break.
  • Hit Print Scrn. You don't need ANY special programs, rollers, ANYTHING! Just hit Print Scrn. Congrats You Have a Picture.... BUT its not saved yet.
  • Hit ALT+Tab OR Alt+ Enter, meaning hit Alt and Tab or Enter at the same time. This will minimize NWN (or it SHOULD) and bring you back to your Desktop (the thing with the icons on it).
  • Open up ANY Paint like Program. By that I mean a program you can create pictures on. Since there are SO many, PhotoShop, MS Paint, Corell Paint Shop Pro.... Blah blah blah... Just open it to a blank new file.
  • Hit Ctrl+V or Right Click and select paste. If you did everything right then POOF! your Screen shot will apear! YAY!
  • Next part should be common sense but....[SIZE=48]SAVE THE [/SIZE][SIZE=48]DARN THING! [/SIZE]
  • Won't miss that instruction, huh? Well now what, you saved the file, but you don't know how to post it. EASY! When you are making a new Thread for something, say a Soul Strand Reimbursement or Any "GIMME IT BACK" post for something like a lost item or what ever, Loo under `Additional Options. There is an option in there with a button that says Manage Attachments. CLICK IT!
  • Alright, now what? A window should open OVER the one with Layo on it. If one does not, check your browser's (the thing you view internet with) POP UP BLOCKING settings. Now, there should be three blank lines/area to type in, each followed by a button that says Browse. CLICK IT!
  • Now, another window will open! This should look like any other window you see when you select the OPEN option in any program. Go to wherever the file you saved earlier, and Select the file! then Click Open
  • You're almost done!!! It will say it needs to upload or something and you will have to wait a little while, but then your done! Type up whatever in the Post New Thread box, Click Submit New Thread and PRESTO! yer done!
I hope that helps. I'm about 90% sure this is almost exactly the same with Apple and Linux, but if not, PLEASE LEMME KNOW! Hope this HELPS!!!!
 
 
 PRINT SCRN Trivia!!!
 
 Did you know what the original purpose of Print Scrn was?  Well, back when computers required lines of code to be written into them in order to make it do anything, print scrn was used to print out said lines of code in order to check them over for errors.  (I guarantee Orth and Dorg now more about this then me so I'm sure I'll get corrected soon :p)

General Discussion / About Interia...
« on: October 16, 2007, 09:39:06 pm »
Just so everyone knows, Interia/Kinai/Chrissy will not be able to play layo for an undetermined amount of time.  I can't really say why, but I felt I should let you all know.

General Discussion / In Memory of the Demi-God, Hawklen Ancalime
« on: June 22, 2007, 12:36:08 pm »
Well, In light of recent events, I thought it would be nice to hear from people that interacted with Nepp/Hawklen, either in game or on IRC.  I'm hoping you all have some fond memories of him, and I hope those who have not will keep from turning this thread into a flame war.  Should it turn into such I'll ask the Mods to close it immediately.

So, that said, all those who have some kind of story about something Hawk did, whether it was funny, scary, romantic, disgusting...  deadly...  Insane!, I hope you will share them with us all in a respectable manner.  So share away.

Heres Mine:

Hawklen and I ended up going to the Forest of Fog after RPing with Kinai at their house.  Hawk, being Hawk and at the time 6 levels higher then me, just ran around slaying everything, with me getting the odd giant he left behind.  All along the way I was collecting gold and items from the giants, thinking "Wow!  Look at all this True!".  Well, we eventually get to the bottom, where the Fire Opals are.  I mine them, hawk watches my back (which is scarier then having the giants around) and after I mine them all, Hawk says this:
[INDENT]"I get to keep all the gold you collected, or I am gonna leave you down here and invis myself out."
[/INDENT]Now, right after that I get this tell:
[INDENT]"I'd fell really bad about doing it, but thats what hawk would do."
[/INDENT]I just grit my teeth and forked it over.  I still got to keep all the Opals, AND the items I looted were worth more then the gold I lost.  And in Hawks defense, he WAS keeping me alive with Heals and killing everything else that I didnt kill, so it wasn't like he didnt deserve a payment for the help.

Introduce Yourself / The Man Behind the Pirate... Sorta...
« on: March 14, 2007, 11:30:46 am »
Hello everyone!  Greetings from the Wild Blue Yonder, and I don't mean the one in the sky.  You might know me as Shiff Dragonheart or Latherian Leefwalker, and just maybe as Yukimura or Nemo, but either way, I'm Shane!  I'm eighteen, I go to Rutgers University, and I live in Jersey (Exit 88 :cool:).  I'm majoring in English with a Concentration in Creative Writing.  I'm fairly new to RPing.  Not to say I haven't played DnD games before, but until Layo I've been stuck with Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights.  I only just recently found people to play PnP DnD with, but I  //Aww! My post got cut off!  Can someone try finding the rest of it in the archives?  Maybe?  *cries*
