From what I've seen so far, since I left for a while, the banner has been changed, along with a few font changes; have I missed anything else?

I've actually been at Gamefaqs all this time. I haven't forgotten about the Forge.

Look for a hamster avatar too.=)

In any case, I'll be here more often.(and possibly on IRC, once I figure out how to get on)

Yay more users coming back! Word spreads ^_^

Hey. Welcome back! Enjoy your stay and expect more updates! </generic post>
As for IRC, click Chatroom and type in the username you want and connect.

Heh, welcome back :)

Like CrossDragon said, just click on the Chatroom button in the left navigation menu to access IRC. Or you could download an IRC client like mIRC (just go to www.mirc.com, install it, then when it's installed and opened, type "/server irc.slacknet.org". You will then connect to the Slacknet IRC server. Once you're connected, type "/join #libelldra" and you should be in our IRC channel :)

Hope to see you there soon.

If you need an avatar you can use this:

Hamster avatar FTW.

Finally got that hamster pic, the hamster is Oreo, and I'm in the background, in the blue robe, corraling him towards the camera.

I couldn't get the full size picture up for some reason.
