Board Announcements & Updates! (Updated 3/1)

[Erika]

Any and all board announcements by your One Love staff will be posted here!

[Erika]

Everyone give a big thanks to my sister Kate! She created for us our very own LEGEND OF THE SEEKER photo and fan art gallery!

You will still need to register - but this will now have even more photos in it than what we have over on MV. I've included some Actor photos and am uploading our community's fanart into it! All screencaps, etc will be posted in the new gallery.

If you have any photos that you'd like to contribute, please let me know!

Click HERE to access it!

Also, I've expanded things out so that guests can now read this board (the rules/regulations board) they can also view most of our other boards to see what topics we have to offer for discussion on the board, but to view anything further they have to register.

Thank you Erika & Kate for all of your hard work. This really is a lovely and well organized board that will make the show that much more enjoyable.

Thanks Kris - we run a couple of other larger fan networks (for Smallville and Terminator) so we're hip on what makes great fandoms work and what people enjoy about being fans of a series - great conversations, photos, videos, artwork, and (hopefully soon) we'll have fanfic as well.

I'm glad that you like the forum - I really hope that it takes off and that fans who're scared of all of the freak out fanboy filled sites find their way here.

BTW I'm looking for some new fantasy style mini smilies - if you find any can you please post them in here?

Your expertise in forum creation shows

I'm thankful for this forum because the differences between the books and series make it hard & confusing for a new fan. And I don't imagine it would be easy to ship R/K amongst that. I love that this board focuses on them so I wish it the best of luck. There seems to be a lot of lurkers so I'm sure it's only a matter of time before it gets its wings.

I did a little searching for smileys under keywords like "fantasy" "magic" and "medieval" and here's a few I thought appropriate for the show. I tried to make sure they were from free sites:

Karma and gracias for those smilies! I've now updated our smilies to include some that are more related to the show!

yay good karma thanks!

I'm glad you were able to find some smilies you liked. If I come across any more I'll surely post them.

Thank you Erika and Kate. Bravisimo! Well done!
I haven't even the faintest of clues as to how one would go about doing anything like this.
So I shall just sit back in my chair, in this glorious and pictuesque setting and sip from the goblet of adoration and envy.

[Erika]

Thanks for finding them Kris

Well luckily - I've made several pro-boards forums over the last couple of years so creating this place wasn't that hard - you just leave the admin type stuff to the experts and you keep contributing to the discussions, fair trade?


I added a few new avatars today:

Works for me!! Done deal! And thanks for the new avatars!!

Hey guys - I just split out the Fan Media section, we now have 2 boards, one for videos and the other for fanart.

If you've created a single thread for art and videos, you can now separate them into 2 areas

[Erika]

FYI- If you're getting server connectivity errors or the site is loading really slow for you - Proboards is having issues w/ their servers today and are working on rebooting them...it looks like we're one of the unfortunate sites that has been affected. So just be patient

[Erika]

Hey all - I created 2 new sub-boards in the book fans discussion area - I moved all of the discussion threads for Debt of Bones and books 1-6 into one sub board and then book discussions 7-11 into another. This frees up the rest of the area so that people can actually find the book spoiler allowed discussion threads

Feel free to create whatever topics that you want in the book areas - like specific character discussions or whatever

[Erika]

It looks like Photobucket where I host all of my images for the site is currently off-line - hence why if you're not seeing your avatars or some of the image links are down.

Hopefully it'll be back up and online later.

Hey guys - sorry about the weirdness Conduit is in the middle of making changes to their toolbars and I think they did something to the coding of the banner that I put up. I've removed all of our external affiliate links and will reload them in a while!
