I watched the video yesterday afternoon. I was so awed, I couldn't post about it until this morning. 8O :Hail: I just got all goosebumpy and chills-running-down-my-spiney and...whoo. Most fun I've had since 1995.

"Foul has my son." What did I tell you guys? What did I tell you????

The whole site is fabulous. Nice job, all! And the link to KW lends us a certain sense of legitimacy, don't ya think? Holy cow, we've made the Big Time!

As for whether SRD has visited KW, I am sure he has. I can't imagine that he's the type of guy who would allow a link on his website to something he's not familiar with. I bet he's just lurking, tho. Lurking...and chortling to himself.

From the video, (and I'm sure that I am not the only one who noticed this or commented on it) it looks like TC and LF finally do become one.

By the by, did anyone read the press release that said that motion picture options have been picked up?

AAHAHAHHAHAHHAH!!!!!!!!!!!

If anyone who submits a question needs to fix a typo or something, there's a Webmaster Feedback link on the Links page. I'm sure it's an easy thing to fix. :-)

It's not a typo as such, more like a "Deliberate mispell" :? 8) :lol:

Hi, F&F! I've been lurking off & on, but mostly pretty busy for the last few months. Hopefully things will be a bit calmer for awhile...

Outstanding! I can now stop kicking myself for not buying it online.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

While it's being bumped...

Exerpts from W.A. Senior's book (Variations on the Fantasy Tradition) are now in the Commentary section, under "analyses".

It's so dark on my system that I can barely see most of it. :(

Here's a lighter version of it that might help:

www.eccker.org/RunesCoverLight.jpg

Does anyone else have problems viewing the original? The texture makes it a little darker, and the contrast between the background and the letters (and the thin lines) makes it a bit difficult for scanning/computer viewing as well. I'm sure the real thing will look MUCH better. :D

Pretty exciting to see all those words on a real cover, though! Finally!!!!

Thank you, Romeo. That is better. Before, the only color I could see besides the dark was the red.

I'm surprised that the "R." is being left out.
