    Greetings, dear Lizardmen, reptiles and amphibians in general!

    Chaos Dwarfs Online is undergoing a lengthy restoration process, and one of the issues we're looking to fix is that of the old link-banners to other forums found at the bottom of the forum list:

    [​IMG]

    Of the old Chaos Star, only CDO is alive and kicking. The others are dead. So we're going to replace them with relevant ones. The Grand Alliance Forum, Kings of War Forum, the Ninth Age Forums, Eighth Edition For Life Forum and Age of Sig Zharr Facebook Group are all proposals at the moment. The definitive list is yet to be decided, but it's not impossible that it would include Lustria Online.

    After all, you're a brilliant hobby hub among the old WHFB army forums, having adapted well to changes and keeping up a great, polished facade with good activity going on all over. You're an example of what CDO used to be across the board, and what all forums can strive to become. Also, you've got stepped pyramids, which are close enough to ziggurats.

    So a link-banner to Lustria Online might be included, due to your sheer quality. I hope the other Chaos Dwarfs will accept that proposal.

    However, do you have some specific artwork around here to share, so that our admin Nicodemus can rework it into a link-banner of the format seen above? Something particularly gorgeous, which you would like to see as eye candy? :)

    Non-commercial purpose, obviously.

    Cheers!

    @The Red Devil would be the one to message.

    Best of luck with reviving your forum, you dirty Hashut worshiper ;)

    Thanks! It's rather alive and kicking with activity already, but the old precincts need a facelift and update to draw in more sacificers. :D

    In the event that you guys decide that you will link to the forum, if he can let me know the dimensions for the banner image, I can have it created and sent over.

    What about the Khemri forum? I've noticed that all the art has been stripped away. Is the site still alive?

    @The Red Devil : Thanks a lot! By merely taking a screenshot and cropping away at the existing banners in MS Paint, the dimensions are 82x217 pixels. The raw banners without text overlay for T9A and KoW forums look like this (pending approval from Mantic for the KoW artwork; their forum administrator has been very helpful):

    Actually, the very existence of a ready-to-go Lustria Online Banner would be an argument in itself for including you in the link-banners. ;)

    @Killer Angel : Will do!

    Please salvage Khemri's artwork! We'd like to backup-store it on other forums as we await the awakening of the ancient Pharaohs.

    the unrequested and unwanted passage to tapatalk has been... detrimental.
    I will ask to the Admin and keep you informed.

    No worries, I was just curious. There isn't really anybody around at this point, so it isn't really worth putting much effort into restoring it.

    Yea, it is a scrapped banner due to we did not feel the proportions came outright. Though if people want to see it, I guess we can add it as an option when we update the forum to the next forum version later this year.

    We will, of course, listen to suggestions, but please understand I cannot guarantee that it would be implemented.
