Happy Birthday, Ind =D! I hope you have an amazing day~

I think this is a neat addition <3. I would love to have this in =D!

Wow, all of this is amazing <3. Great job! And lol, that animation XD~

I like to use Sniper and and High Wizard =D. Hooray for range attacks~

Great job with the Patcher, Mist =D! Looks awesome~ I used that font a long time ago - love it! And thanks, YusofRazak! I coded one of the patchers (the Valkyrie one) with Neoncube, but I don't know how many people use that now haha. Only know how to code in that at the moment~

Oh... I guess I missed it all. I hope everything can be resolved peacefully <3. Good luck!

Can someone from the rAthena team at least post a new status on the Facebook page in order to give a firm confirmation that things are progressing? It's been 14 days since the last update... (on Facebook anyways).

FIRST will still be up, but it's just difficult to get "steady" reviewers. However, that's not up to us as it really depends on our volunteers. Yusifer got her own things going as well (and maybe RO 2 ), but hopefully, she can be active again in the future <3. Just curious, how's the website going =D?

Thanks =D! I was wondering if I should upload these files in the Download section, but I didn't know if that would be too... "repetitive" (or if I could do that actually). Maybe I'll do so if I get more things released (which I might very soon~).

Hopefully, they're making progress! And, I just noticed the H.C. position got changed to High Council haha. Didn't know what H.C. stood for before (High contributor? Lol XD), but now I know~

Congratulations to everyone =D! All three of you deserve the promotion <3, and thank you all for your hard work and dedication as always ;D. Good luck to the Hercules team!

Thank you all for your comments =D!

They've been trying for days, with the latest news being: "HDD is not reallocating bad sectors to their reserved space." - May 14th. Hopefully, something works out for them in the end. Lol haha, great tips, Jman XD. Especially with the second tip... Or, at least let the public know the progress with a daily summary at the end of the day (there is a Google Doc though). Maybe they should have updated their Facebook group status - latest post by them was May 9th, but there are a bunch of posts under that status. Heard that IRC is active, but I don't use IRC (as with some people probably), so I didn't know what was happening until I saw posts on RMS. Best of luck to them. And it's great that Hercules is fine~ -Message from the hidden (not-so-hidden-anymore) RO stalker

Thank you =D!

Hi everyone, To vent out my stress, I just made up some random and simple patcher designs that I want to release for free. I know my Photoshop skills aren't the best, but sometimes simplicity is good enough? I'm used to Neoncube patchers, so I am not sure about all the features of Thor and what additional features/designs I can add. Hence, these designs can be used for both types of patchers I suppose. Yes, I basically spammed the round rectangle shape art tool haha. All designs come with 2 PSDs (one for the original looks and one with hover over looks; screenshots are provided as well in the individual folders). Some screenshots are shown in the spoiler below. They are not coded (though when I have more time, I can try to learn and code them, kind of already got the gist but not the motivation). It'll be awesome if someone gets to use these designs and have them coded (let me know if you have them coded as well)! Use these as you please in any way. I do not claim any of the images, and if there are any concerns with the use of any of the background images, let me know and I'll remove them. If there are any requests, just shoot a PM, and I can try when I have time. Remember, I can only make simple designs... like these. When I have more time, I'll look into Photoshop techniques, etc. Thanks! DOWNLOAD LINK: http://www.mediafire.com/?q4pmlnswmosesx6 Heavy images below! Sorry, the spoiler button isn't working for me!

I have released the following design files before, but I want to put them here for downloading as well! Thank you =D. In the WinRAR file, it contains several images, files, and PSDs. I bought a design from ShiJu a while back with the intent of giving it to the community after some modifications (EmberRO design). EmberRO isn't a server--just a placeholder name. Feel free to use any images and edit them if PSDs are provided. I do not mind if my credits are not there, but it would be nice of you if you do mention me somewhere. I ask that for the website, keep ShiJu's credit image at least. The patcher is my first attempt at designing a patcher, so I do not know if I made it in the proper format for the PSD file, but you guys can correct it or use the images separately if wanted. In the additional images folder, most images are designed by me and a few are designed by others which I have purchased with my own money. There are images like a few forum ranks, loading screens, logos, emblems, etc. Some images I did not provide PSDs to out of whim or that I do not have them. Let me know if you want some edits or additional stuff, but I may not make them depending on my schedule. I hope to add more files later when I have more spare time! The website was supposed to be coded, but the coder got far too busy recently, so I can only offer PSDs (was waiting for the coding so that I can release it to the public later, but I guess I'm releasing the PSDs now due to the mentioned circumstances). As for the patcher, I can code it, but it would take some time to do so and that I only know how to code it with Jikari. I made a simple splash page, and the coding isn't perfected. It's simple, but it gets the job done XD. Use it however you like (the coding, images, etc). I am not that good with Photoshop, but this is just a token of appreciation from me to the community, so don't have high expectations or criticize me too much haha! If you do not have some of the fonts, I suggest you go to http://dafont.com/ to download them. In fact, you can pretty much make so many images with just the pretty fonts there =D! (And use blending options through Photoshop.) I have posted some preview images in this post (within the spoiler). Have fun! If people want to make mirrors of it, go ahead~ I would like to say that I do not claim to own any images ^^.

Oh awesome! Happy Birthday, Judas! I hope you continue to have a wonderful day and an amazing year to come ;D!

It looks like a very decent and nice design so far, though I cannot give better comments if I cannot see the whole layout with more words and buttons, etc. Nevertheless, I think what you did to the background image overall was neat, and having background pictures within each box is pretty nice as well (but I need to see how they are with words on top, just to see if it will look cluttered). I have a few suggestions (do not necessarily have to follow them, just my opinion =D): 1. For the boxes with the swirl image in the background, I think it's better to shift the white-looking parts to the edge of the boxes so that they do not look cut off. Furthermore, I just find the silver parts coming out of the box a bit distracting (doesn't blend well for me personally). 2. The black line in the middle of one of the middle boxes looks pixelated - is it completely straight? 3. For the boxes with RO characters sticking out, I prefer it if the extra parts are cut off. Or, at least move the swordsman down to cover the bottom edge of the outer box, just like the assassin character. 4. The black Facebook and Twitter buttons don't really match the design in my opinion, probably because of the dark colour. Maybe make it brighter to match the brownish colour theme you have going. 5. Really need to see where you will put the logo as well as its design to match the website layout Keep up the amazing work! Can't wait to see the full version of this design ^^ and good luck!

Great job with the logo design (simple yet slick)~ The current one looks pretty good as well =D (though I don't know what it symbolizes... unless somebody else knows XD).
