Skyrim Blogs

Post » Sun Dec 11, 2011 9:21 am

Rereading the last couple pages of this thread, I found out how to link to everyone else's blogs, so I'm getting on adding that. Share the link love and all that, right?

Yeah, most of us have everyone added anyway. There's quite a bit of blogs out already, like 20 of them.

Also, Pudi, is it normal that we can't comment your blog?

Hello, can anyone link me to medieval parchment-esque themes for blogger?


I'm not sure I know any, but you also could adapt any theme you like, just find a parchment texture online somewhere, and set it to your background (fixed, so it will scroll along with any text), while setting background for posts to transparant, for example.

BTW, just finished a new character history post again, link is in my sig :)

Oops, had it turned off while I was setting it up and forgot to enable it. Fixed!

A few tips for people to read your blogs:

-Comment and add other blogs. People will be curious to see what you got, and it's nice to motivate others.
-Use images. Even if you are a good writter and people don't get turned off by your wall of text, images always increase their interest.
-Never be egocentric, talk about things that other people can relate to, even if you're role playing your blog. Your character can always say stuff like "this town is pretty" or "this lore svcks" or "why are there still no crossbows in Tamriel". If your blog is 100% centered on you and your character, people will have nothing to discuss and won't comment it.

That was a good read, I've put my comment on your blog :)

Meanwhile I've completed some http://shilkaskyrim.blogspot.com/p/roleplay-guidelines.html on mine, have a look and see what you think of my solution to ingame deaths...

It's great to see how many blogs are already linking to eachother, and how unique each blog and character is. Makes for great reading, and very inspiring!

Hey StormTemplar,

Did you have to hardcode your other blogs links? Or is there an automatic way to do that with WordPress. I'm new to blogging. Do you use the Links widget?

Nevermind, I figured it out.

Hey, ShilkaLive, thanks for the comment. I used your blog list links. To everyone, if you don't see your blog on my list or your blog is in the wrong category please let me know and I'll be happy to add/change as soon as I can..

Other Journals category is for in-character blogs. Treatises on Skyrim is for all others.

Brilliant. Funny, full of character, and loved the set-up for the personal mission with the sword. And I can't help but read it in a Khajiit voice... :goodjob:

I'm a bit confused, do you actually have two blogs?

I have just uploaded a first issue discussion post on my blog. It's about using mods on TES. I have interviewed a few players about the issue, it was rather nice. There's a lot of content to check out, give it a look :) http://armathyx.blogspot.com/

Just started my first ever blog: http://shadowstale.blogspot.com/

Will be about time before Skyrim (the wait, oh the long wait.) and my life revolving around it after release.
Also I'd like your opinion about the pc's I have blogged about, feel free to share you comments in the post.

Allright, I've got Gwenneth Gut-Ripper's History part 4 up at http://shilkaskyrim.blogspot.com/
I promise, part 5 will be the last part! :whistling:
It's hard to fit 32 years of character history on one page, lol.

Thanks for all your comments so far, I hope I have every blog linked now (also included the ones from the similar topic at TESnexus).
And of course feel free to post if you have a blog to be added :)

I read some article about getting ready for Skyrim, and one of the suggestions was to have a logging tool ready to log your encounters in the game, like a laptop. I might do that if I get off my butt and clean my desk off for it.

No, I just seperated the links to other people's blogs into role-playing and non-roleplaying categories.

People are probably still busy putting their own blogs together.

Updated my blog with a few new entries, and I've linked some of the new blogs as well.

I've been posting here and there, whenever something catches my eye. I don't expect people to leave me comments if they're not really interested - I don't think people should feel obligated to comment, but that's just me. :shrug:
