I am a graphic artist/designer (don't worry I would violate anything by doing any form of business adverts or anything) on the side and a full time Dad, so I have some time no and again to delve into the things that interest me. I would love to say I am a writer, but I have yet to publish and even if I managed that I would never compare myself to authors like Gemmell or Gaiman, although my embrace of, and obsession with mythos in my writing does parallel the likes of Tolkien. I of course, like all after his works can only my shroud myself in his shadow, and that of the great Gygax, there is so little room for original thought anymore.
I do not want to tread upon anyone's toes, but would there be any objections if I attempted to play the role of gamemaster for a post? I of course need to familiarize myself with how the forum works, but I wouldn't mind providing a little structure. Is it possible to add linked graphics in the posts? If not its no matter, just thought as I am artist I would use some graphics for effect and provide some maps. I enjoy creating very detailed maps, though not so much as to render them useless for online viewing.
I am not going use my own world... Since I have not yet finished my book I would be a little paranoid revealing the secrets of my compendium (you understand). I do have some interesting ideas, however, and may borrow a world from an old classic you may recognize when the time comes.

Okay, I just paid the $18.00 for the Premium, so I should be able to join you, Krakyn, as soon as my account is upgraded. Not that I would not have managed the 30 posts, but this way I have donated and can upload images to my posts.
I am actually just going to make a web page that I can link to with all the details of the world I am going to use for the role playing. That way people will have the resources at their ready. But, I want to make sure that would be alright, because the page would be on my commercial site, which may cause a conflict of interest (I have used it before for other games with no problem but I always ask). It is just convenient for me to access my site and set up some cool pages. If I have to use some other site, can anyone recommend a place with free web space that I could have complete control over? (I would need full access to the space or portion of it).
So the World of Medieval still baffles me somewhat, but I'll figure it out. All advice is welcome.
Thank you all for the help so far. It may take me a bit to create all the necessary graphics for the role playing but once that's done its just a matter of whipping up adventures, which come pretty easy to me.
Oh, I just noticed... No external links. Okay, got it.
