Welcome!

Welcome to the new Sralos.com! Have a look around. Maybe you'll see something you like. Previous visitors will remember that this site was dedicated to roleplaying. The new Sralos.com is intended to be a place where I can express all of my interests, including roleplaying. You'll also find my artwork, personal galleries, a blog, and stories.

Sralos.com is moving away from the original roleplaying stories featuring Beth Codet. In fact, I'm in the process of consolidating all of that old material into one area. However, the Roleplaying Tips are still here and featured prominantly so visitors can find them. Honestly, I think that's the only reason anyone comes here anymore anyway.

My partner and I use a lot of the site's features for our current story telling, and others are invited to use them as well. Please note that you probably won't see a lot of the stuff that we're doing now, because it's more for our personal enjoyment rather than for a public audience, which of course, others can do as well. Public or private ... it's up to you.

Sralos.com Features

• Live roleplaying - Registered users can roleplay in the Sralos.com chat rooms. The chat features instant messaging and ignore. The room environment is customizable, with different themes and the ability to change font size and color. Players can create their own private rooms with passwords, and invite others to join them. There are no hosted sessions.
• Shopping - If you like my art you might like to see it on a mouse pad, or a poster, or a coffee mug, or a t-shirt. In my store you can choose products featuring many of the images you see in my galleries. Custom products are also available. It's a great way to support the site and get some pretty nifty goodies for the home and office. They make great gifts too. ::Shameless plug::
• Roleplaying tips - You know 'em, you love 'em, but you can't ever find 'em, because I keep moving 'em around. Well, here they are. Forever. Hopefully. I ain't making no promises.
• Galleries - Both site galleries and a user gallery. Now you can upload and display your art on Sralos.com. You can allow viewers to comment on your images or not. You can also mark them private, so that only you can see them.
• Books - Registered members of Sralos.com can create their own books with a sleek, professional looking presentation. Forum (message board) roleplaying always leaves something to be desired in terms of presentation ... how it looks to the reader. This is a completely different way of displaying your stories. Check out the existing books and see what you think. If you prefer message boards, I've got those too.
• Character Profiles - Registered members can create as many character profiles as they need. Author information is not displayed on character profiles, so no one will know which character belongs to which player.
• Blogs - Both a site blog (mine) and user blogs (yours).
• Forums/Message Boards - There was never much activity on the old Sralos boards. For the time being I have a suggestion box and a bug report forum. Do make use of them. :)
• My Content - Easily keep track of all the content and material you create on Sralos.com through My Content. There, you will see everything you've created listed by type.
• Buddy List - Add other Sralos.com members to your Buddy List for an easy way to keep up with your friends are doing. View content created by people on your BL through the Buddy Content link under My Sralos.com. You can also make content visible to your buddies only.
• Subscriptions - You can follow threads, blogs, stories, etc., by subscribing to them. You can view your subscriptions on your 'My Account' page under Subscriptions. Also, you can schedule email alerts to let you know when a new entry/comment is posted.
• Favorites - Add pictures, stories, books, almost any site content to your favorites list.
