Tribute Auction News

[Dream Loxley]

We have set a provisional date for Saturday 22nd September, that should give enough time for Xavier and her 'team'. Details will have to yet be finalised but I would hope during the afternoon/evening USA time so UK and Europe can join in our evening That time may also allow Australia and the southern half to come along if they are early risers.

Rayven, you have kindly offered some ava's to auction but would you also have the time to create an invitation/announcement at all please? Your work is incredible and we know would do Thorgrimm most proud.

Don't forget if you would like to create any ava's to auction or one specially in memory of Thorgrimm, do let us know. I am afraid I don't know the name of the Actor T used...... perhaps others may know?

Many thanks once again for all the work and support given so far...... we truly could not do this without you all.

[Lady Edfeil]

I would like to create an avatar for him. Don't know the actor either though, so will wait for someone who does...

[Xavier Douglas]

As we are posting news and updates as to the leading up to the event. I have posted the rules for the auction. Please, when you bring your friends share this with them. I love having a smooth auction when everyone knows the rules.

[Brennekah Windstrike]

are the avs for the auction to be medieval in theme?

[Xavier Douglas]

Brennekah. . .an others who wonder. . .

Right now from the looks they seem to be, but there are a few that are not. Once I've heard back to make sure the 47 of the 81 we picked are 'good to go' I will be posting a preview. There are a few who have offered to make av's if there where not enough. I might ask for something non medieval out of them. We shall see, we've a lil time yet. -s-

[Dream Loxley]

We chose a good selection in those 47, including Medieval and Pirates. We felt they were T's best efforts and most worthy of Auctioning. Council have until 15th August to approve them, and I am looking forward to seeing whatever is gifted by Rayven, Bren and Jazzy so far.

It was rather emotional going through those avatars created by T, I imagined him working on them and it felt strange having to decide if they were up to auction standard, very strange indeed, but foremost we wanted to do his name justice and feel we have made the right choices.

I also made sure with the site owners and confirmed the date, hoping it will be added to Chat Suites Calendar.

At the moment an invitation request is with Rayven, but if she is unable, then our Edfeil will take that on.

I believe that is all the news thus far and am getting rather excited!

Many thanks again to all involved, we could not do this without you.

Time seems to pass quicker as the year moves on I think....... an update on our Tribute Auction thus far for you all.

I know Xavier's helpers have been extremely busy placing a watermark on the avatars we are auctioning, this is incase anyone decided to take any without permission, although I doubt people do that kind of thing there is always one I guess. My thanks on behalf of Windstorm once again to Jules who has done a lot of the work behind scenes. I am one of those people who enjoy these Auctions as they appear and am not truly aware of all that has to be done to make them a success! So Thankyou again!

Eva has created a very worthy Invitation for us, simple but very effective and as soon as she gives the word I shall forward it to Xavier and also begin to post it around the realms *S*

I am sure when it is ready the website hosting the avatars will be made available to all for their perusal and please let any of us know if you particularly wish an avatar so others can bid on it for you.

Those avatars that were not able to be included in the Auction will be made available for anyone to adopt as was Thorgrimms original idea, and I am sure they will be enjoyed and used with great affection.

Any questions or enquiries please leave a note here or seek us in the room or by email. Many thanks...........and be well *S*

[Dream Loxley]

Here is the Invitation for our Tribute Auction......... it will be posted about the realms and we would appreciate any visitors taking it and spreading the word. Many thanks in advance!

test

[Lady Edfeil]

okay, this is very weird. Can anyone see the red letters on this bottom of this invitation with the adress of WS?

[Dream Loxley]

Yes.... I can see the letters........ could they be a little clearer at all? or a link? You know me.....always asking for more

[Lady Edfeil]

I can make them clearer, but I can't do a link, I fear. That would be something for more advanced makers...

[Kalisa]

~ss~...The invitation is beautiful and truly touching Your Highness. I think this might be what you had in mind to add to it Lady Dream? I will send a pm with the code to you both.

[Dream Loxley]

Gosh! That is exactly what I meant....how very kind of you Kalisa! Oh my.....it is wonderful to have the support of all you clever people....thankyou so much!

Now.......the code looks easy enough ........... but........... secretly hoping Eva can work it out

Thankyou again Kalisa.....and to all who are working to make this Auction happen for us. We do appreciate you all so very much!

[Brennekah Windstrike]

Well now that my eye is, thankfully, all healed up I can make some avs...I said I would make some, do you still need them or do you have enough?
