Re: New Age Introduction Thread
Good to see another RPer.
Rather than waiting around for someone to contact you, I think the best thing to do would be to PM some GMs and see if they'd like to have you, or post in the OOC or recruitment/interest threads. Take a look at what's going on, find one that looks interesting, and ask away.
As for an avatar, find a picture you like, grab a free image editor (I've heard GIMP is pretty good, but I've never used it myself), and crop it down to fit the size limit. Or, if you've never done that before and find the thought intimidating, I'd be willing to do some resizing.
