This has probably been covered elsewhere, so I apologize in advance, but how do we upload pics to the Knight Pages?

There should be a "Pictures" tab at the top, which will have a form for you to browse and upload pictures. Once they're uploaded, you can select from them while editing the page itself. If it's not working, let me know, and I'll take a look.

D'oh!  Ok, thanks man...I'll let you know if I run into any complications.  I get the feeling I should've picked up on that on my own.

Knight Page is done!  A little verbose- feel free to critique, what would make it better?  Thanks all around.

I think it just depends on how complete you want the story to be. I've only read half, but then I'm in the middle of like 5 things at work... lol :)

BTW, I added facebook "like" buttons on the individual knight pages, and also updated the page titles to be the name of the knight as it's displayed (a little more search-engine friendly).

Awesome...think I'm just gonna add to it as I get the inclination to do so (or someone requests it).  One fun thing I used to do on other boards (and this is someone else's idea originally, I'm just making use of it here) is to have a running 'RPG' so to speak, making use of historical battles and personalities and re-writing history, in a sense.  Could be good fun; I notice most of you guys seem to have a firm grasp of the English language as well as a love for all things medieval.  Just a thought.

Last one I wrote for was the Battle of Bannockburn; I even kept the turn-based events if any of you are interested to see how it turned out.

Wow!  That is a new benchmark in backstory.  Great job!

Thank you, Sir Knight!  Got a little longwinded there didn't I?  I do that from time to time...still gotta dig up the Bannockburn stuff.
