@Kamphund: Are you using Pixlr? I experimented with the program and found out how to make it work. Feel free to ask me if you have any questions. Go to my first OOC post under the Information Tab if you need backgrounds.
I suppose we could make narrative posts with speech bubbles sans avatars. Initially, this was intended to be dialogue focused, but I don't mind bringing in narration.
Quick Tip: You can save other people's posts onto your computer to use their backgrounds. I typically have a blank image of the background I'm using in my posts. It makes it easy for characters to gather in the same place.
I'm going to be offline for a few hours tonight. Leave a message if you have any questions.
