Jessica and I have decided to revive this board and attempt to restore it to what glory it formerly had. The arrival of pheonixgigs has stirred this within us and we will try harder than ever to get the word out. Be warned though...if we can't get any new members that meet our standards, TGP will inevitably fall again.
That said, we'll need those of you that have stuck around(if there are any) to help us out!
We need:
1. Advertising! We need this the most...new members is the only way we could possibly keep the board alive.
2. New art**; We managed with what art we've got, but we need more. TGP can't go without a proper background, and there are several areas that still have [image coming soon] where the picture should be. A pretty board makes members want to join!
3. Control over the spammers**; Of late, many spammers have joined TGP and crowded its boards. We need to remove these useless posts and make sure they know who's boss as soon as they join! No new members will join if our board is covered in spam!
That's it for now, but more will probably be added as the revival process progresses.
** = These topics require staff attention. I'd be willing to give out even temporary positions if necessary. Consult with Jessica and I to apply. (Also see the "STAFF POSITIONS OPEN!!!" board if you'd like your position to be permanent.)

Lets bring it back!
I might be able to help with the art end of things. I'm an okay artist and I do have a program to colour digitally with (but I'm not practised with it D: )
I could probably help more in relation to the spam posts though XD

In the staff section of the board, we've got an artist to-do list. Here's some that are more of necessities: Pridelands BackgroundRequirements: Be creative with this one! I was thinking maybe an open savannah, with maybe some zebras or gazelle in the distance. Picture of the Great Pride LandsRequirements: A view of the Pride lands. Should have Cliffs in a "C" shape where the lions live (caves in the rock on the inside). Grassy lands with water and wildlife should stretch from that. Photo sized. For: About the Great Pride Lands Page Picture of the Lands of the BanishedRequirements: A mountain with caves where the lions live and a desolate land stretching from that. bones, rocks, and dead trees litter the area. Photo sized. For: About the Lands of the Banished Page Picture of the JungleRequirements: A beautiful night-time jungle with fireflies buzzing about and lots of color. make it romantic and mysterious! Photo sized. For: About the Jungle Page Picture of the Death DesertRequirements: This one's pretty simple. Sandy hills as far as the eye can see, half buried bones being consumed by the sand whipping around in the air. Photo sized. For: About the Death Desert Page It's quite a list...but you don't have to do it all, or any if you don't want to. I'd be working on it now if my tablet was still alive. I'll have that fixed soon, though, and then we can put a dent major in this awful list. |

Hmm, I don't really think I'd be able to do any of those D: I don't know how to do backgrounds in PSE. I'm only just learning how to shade DX Sorry mate.

That's fine. At least you we willing to try and help. Oh, I forgot! Banners as well. Those would be anything TGP related that attracted attention and whatnot. Once we get some members, we can get the plot going as well! XD I'm excited to see the board coming back. |

If there need for anything to do with a lion, I can doodle up something but backgrounds are near impossible for me ^^;;
I can at the least advertise this board on my TLKFAA and DA c:

I've sent out some emails to the old, once active members of TGP. Hopefully they'll rejoin us...that'll be a great help.

Okay, so...
First off, Jessica, glad to see you again! I couldn't tackle this alone.
Secondly, TGP is going to need a lot of work if we want it to be up to par with the rest of the Roleplaying world. We're going to have to kick it up a notch and improve EVERYTHING.
So lets get working on this!
To-Do List:
* Update Layout. (I need to get off my butt and make us some custom graphics...)
* Update Content. (Make the boards seem more appealing. I've also got to fifsh the header story and make that table look better...)
* Clean it up!
(Jessica, feel free to edit this with any additional ideas you get)
