"My signature"
Posted by Lady Adrexia on Mar-10-00 at 06:10 PM
Okay, I have been playing with LView and thought that I would test out my new signature.

Let me know how you like it or dislike it. It took me forever to find a graphic that best suited Lady Adrexia's nature.

So here it goes...

"What is LView?"

Nice pix you have - is it the real you Kind of a gypsy/mage thing you have going on there? I've always liked the Ranger picture from Wiz 7 (CoDS version for my own) though I think of myself as more of a fighter/knight. Guess I just like the goatee

LView is a photo modifier that husband used to use in the office. He found a version online and downloaded it. You can change gifs into jpgs and vica-versa. Add text--which is what I did.

I was trying to find a picture of a female warrior who casts magick, but this actually suited me better. After all Lady Adrexia originally started out a warrior in Wiz1 and now she is a major spell-casting bad a$$ in Bard's Tale.

I wish that was me, but that was the closest picture of me that I could find.

I like what you did. I am inspired to see if I can find (or devise) a picture of my wizardry personna It will probably take me weeks of consideration!! :=0 joan

The copyright compliance of this next (Swedish) site is a bit suspect They have a lot of D&D, Boris Vallejo and similar works.

This last one was a really good site ... can't get to it today. I don't know if it is down permanently or not.

"I use LView too."

I'm sticking with version 1.4 and REFUSE to upgrade to the new version because ...
1) they want $40 and I am cheap.
2) the interface is too cluttered with all the new features they added.
3) I shoot a LOT of TV screen captures and 1.4 lets me do basic editing faster than 2.0 would.

Would you like a copy of my "upgraded" Wiz 7 character pictures? I can send you the zip file, if you know how to rename directories and replace them ...

Or freeware? Where can I find a copy?

And I paid my fee too.

My favorite picture viewer is ACDSee ...

but they've improved the price along with the viewer.

I got your zip files of characters and replaced my wizgold pics. In my wildest fantasies I can't see myself as those figures but I have had great fun matching them up to my game characters. I have a faerie monk and I substituted the anemic asexual faerie with the blond bombshell that almost has an R-rating. I chuckle everytime I look at her and think of the contrast. Now I will have to find some picture that I could aspire to or reflect upon! Joan

The one with the sword? Or the one with thick snakelike hair? I was careful to keep out the "Good Picture". Since then I've added Jar-Jar Binks. He makes a good dracon and he is really careful with the thermal pineapple ...

the one with the sword and not much else. Speaking of her sword, I can only assume she is about to make some clever move like throwing it to her left hand. She sure can't wield it holding it like that. From the look on her face, she is attempting a mesmerizing spell, so maybe that will give her enough time to change her grip. As far as Jar-Jar is concerned, give him the pineapple and send him out to spy on the enemy. He will blow them all up and end up thrown safely into a nearby tree...Joan
