Leave of General Absence:

Well, my computer picked a hell of a time to die. It coincided quite nicely with the rise of the Yardistani Lord Governor to the Throne. I can't help but wonder if it was possibly an effect thereof rather than a simple coincidence. Nonetheless, with the new Lord Gover- I mean Kaiser, I should hope things will be able to manage themselves for the few days it may take to get my computer back up and running.In the meanwhile, I shall appoint Governor David Northworthy Beckford as my Emissary to the Landsraad, Duke Scott Siskind as Minister of the Interior Pro-Tempore, and Baron Gman Russell as Steward to the throne of Kildare.On a side note, as my drafts for the Census are all on the dearly departed computer, I shall likely not be getting the Verbose Form up this weekend. I apologise to all whom this inconveniences. I encourage anyone waiting for the Verbose Form to fill out the Brief Form for the time being. I will likely keep the thread open for people to edit in the Verbose Form once it is completed well after the conclusion of the bimester. Again, I apologise for the inconvenience.

I think the citizen(s) already kindly volunteered to make nifty images without pay, and no one took him/them up on it. But now that I am MiniInt pro tempore, I would like to request as many of the following as you care to provide:Duchy of Yardistan: Tropical with lots of volcanoesBarony of Amity + Mirioth: Tropical and lush and prettyLothlaria: Like New Zealand, with a very conspicuous kiwiAlexandretta: Hmmmm...I'll get back to you on that one, if you still want to do it.

Well...I guess you're the Baron...I always pictured it as sorta the Hawaii of Micras. After all, what kind of crazy would make a dark and gothic and forbidding and evil place and then name it "Amity"? It's just not done!And that Yardistan image is SWEET. Edited by: Scott SiskindĀ at: 2/9/04 8:48 am

*laughs*It IS ironic no? But, check the inside of my barony... i've allready made myself at home. *shrugs*Maybe subconciously I knew it meant that and so it drummed up the image and feel that made me feel the most at home... I'm not sure..

Here we go. This one was pretty fun to make, and really easy, too. And, I might note, the "Kiwi crossing" sign is from a real photograph.

I added a fixed version to the Lothlaria forum. If you're too embarassed by my editing job, you can post another, but I didn't want to give you the extra work.
