These things are awesome looking. The only thing that I'd add would be lightbox capabilities.

Anyone who knows me, knows that I don't see Lord of the Rings as the end all be all of fantasy. in fact I've always thought that it kinda sucked, especially when you compared it to Robert E Howard's or especially Jack Vance's work.

Both of which are devoted to other ( Read more... )
