An insane campaign side project needs your advice!

Jan 02, 2009 21:15

I'm thinking on setting up a (very) non-traditional campaign journal for my Legacy of Fire campaign when it gets started. Problem is, I'd like to post up the various bits and pieces (character art, character journals, additional materials), and have no real clue how to set something like that up. Here's the basic idea:

Sweet. Truth be told, even with my addiction to multitudinous tabs, my Google Fu is weak-sauce.

I'd guessed a wikishell would be about as much, but any code with enough non-word portions confuses me like Sanskrit. I just trust the code to work, as it were, and when it fails, I give up. :P

But eggs I understand. Pops taught me the miracles of eggs as wonderfood, and I'll keep eating them 'til they kill me.

Speaking of computers being easy to figure out, I basically tooled around with my folks' old 286 (incredibly ancient, even by the time I got my hands on it) over summer break between 7th and 8th grade, breaking and repairing the thing 'til I got the way it worked. Before that, I could barely get the thing turned on. Unfortunately, I spent too long without a functional computer, and a lot happened on the 'Net between 2002 and now that I have no idea on how to use. I'm working on expanding the skillset, but a lot of it is just beyond me for now.

Hell, my dad self-taught himself into a lucrative computer gig after thirty-or-so years of construction work. He's making solid coding money with a Chemistry degree; he's never taken a computer class. Ever. In that time he's collected an incredible assortment of esoteric and (often) obsolete computer skills. He had a solid job in '99 reconfiguring old internal timestamps 'cause they were all in COBOL, one of the first computer languages he picked up. So I totally know that a self-made man can make it in computers; it just happens to not be a big passion of mine.

Anyhoo, thanks again. I'm looking at Google Groups right now to see what it offers. Lemme know if you find something awesome.
