Good evening, Brothers!
I am looking for a fan. I am looking for the most enthusiastic and dedicated fan of Ultima Underworld there is. I need someone who is waiting with tremendous anticipation for the game Arx Fatalis, pouring over every preview and interview, and studying each screenshot in minute detail.
As you should know if you have read today's previous post (on <a href=http://www.ttlg.com>TTLG.com</a>) Arx Fatalis will be shown at E3 tomorrow (and this weekend) and there will undoubtedly be a great deal of media released surrounding this game. This would be the best time to open TTLG's Arx Fatalis fansite.
But I need a webmaster for this site. I would much rather the person who will be running this site take part in its finishing and opening. The Arx website will be located at <a href=http://www.stygianabyss.com>www.StygianAbyss.com</a>, which will also be host to all of our Ultima Underworld content. As you can see, the website design is already there, as well as some structuring. However it is not finished. (I had attempted to make it into a general fantasy gaming news site, but I have changed my mind.)
I would prefer that the webmaster for this site be someone who is already involved in the TTLG community and forums, but I am open to anyone. HTML skill is a requirement for the webmaster, and until the news script is coded (we'll have to update it by hand until then) so will the entire staff. I would also prefer someone who is familiar with Ultima Underworld, but again, that is not a requirement. I would like to get at least three people for the webmaster position. I'll decide which of you is the "leader" of the group after I have worked with you all for a bit. :)
Time is of the essence. I'd like to get this site fully operational as close to E3 as possible. <a href=mailto:digi@ttlg.com>Please contact me!</a>
And just become I love to show this game off, here's a list of my very favorite screenshots:
<ul>* <a href=http://www.stygianabyss.com/arxshots/showimage.asp?source=10.jpg>Bartering with a Goblin</a>
* <a href=http://www.stygianabyss.com/arxshots/showimage.asp?source=7.jpg>Some People Call These "Nagas"</a>
* <a href=http://www.stygianabyss.com/arxshots/showimage.asp?source=4ttlg/shot_ttlg4_4_12_2000.jpg>Chapels, Always Chapels</a>
* <a href=http://www.stygianabyss.com/arxshots/showimage.asp?source=new/shot03.jpg>Return to Undead</a>
* <a href=http://www.stygianabyss.com/arxshots/showimage.asp?source=new/shot01.jpg>Certanly a Deadly Beast</a>
Don't know what the hell Arx Fatalis is? <a href=http://www.ttlg.com/articles/arx1.asp>Read TTLG's article on it</a>. It also has more screenshots. :)

That... looks pretty damn cool, m'man.
I'd volunteer, but I know that my schedule would force me to flake out on you within a few months, so I'll spare us both the upset.
I'll support the site by adding it to my bookmarks and making it a part of my daily rounds, though!

I don't have any html experience, but I'm going to E3 tommorrow, so I'll have some nifty media for you.

Many Thanks Faf!
Please ask them as many questions as possible. :D

actually, it turns out I won't have any pictures, because my mom took the digital camera to school with her, :( but I will ask questions, and take notes.

Id be happy to help. I would have replied sooner but Ive just finished building my second PC and have just reinstalled UW1. I know HTML inside out and have been a huge fan of both the Underworld games for a long time. As I have mentioned on this forum before, UW2 is still my favourite RPG game of all time. I am of course also very excited about Arx.</p>
The only problem is that Im a student who is very busy. But let me know whats involved and well try and work something out if your still looking for someone.</p>
Ill send you a copy of this post as an email.</p>

Hi all!
Arx Fatalis is going to rock! You can feel the "drive" and dedication behind the dev. team.It shows in the screenshots, they really are beautiful, and have that special "something"... They give you "that feeling" again. <IMG SRC="thumb.gif" border="0">
