Thane-Fanbook

As most of you know I recently experienced several deaths in my family. It's been a while since the last one but things still aren't going well at all.

I would like to thank you for your continued patience. I will be trying from now on to come in more regularly (as opposed to not at all) and keep things going.

I would also like to that Maddie for keeping an eye on things while I was away.

Thank you.

Keelah Se'lai, and Honour Thane.

Hello this is MaddyField, due to the unfortunate event that happened in mythlover20 life she will be absent for an unknown amount of time. I volunteered to help for as long as needed. So if you have any questions or anything for the group let me know.

Morning Everyone.

Due to a death in my family I will be absent from deviantArt for quite a while - at least until after the funeral, and possibly until after I find somewhere new to live, a job, and get a new internet connection. This means that I will need a new admin for this group.

It's not a difficult job: just pop in for a few minutes every day, add a couple of art pieces to the gallery if they're there, answer any questions, and you're done.

Please, please, PLEASE respond quickly. As much as I want to be here and completely ignore real life, real life has to come first.

Thank you for your understanding.

Keelah Se'lai, and Honour Thane.

Your faithful admin,

mythlover20

So, many of you will remember the notice I posted last year exposing an art thief within our midst. For reference, this is the journal: thane-fanbook.deviantart.com/j…

Unfortunately it has been made known that this person is still in business. In fact that person, once Karliah49, is now trading under the names: siha49, and FalareZorah962.

This person is a known art thief. They claims the work of not only fan artists, but OFFICIAL BIOWARE ARTISTS as their own work. They had abused and harrassed my co-founder nerdymum to the point where she had to deactivate her account to get away from them.

This person is poison to the artistic community.

Whoever you are, whatever fandom you are in: spread the word. This person, whomever they are, however old they are, cannot be allowed to get away with this.

Go to Spyke1985's journal regarding this foul individual here: www.deviantart.com/journal/Art…

This is this person's Google Plus account: plus.google.com/11360813113313…

This is Spyke's tumblr announcement: spyke1985.tumblr.com/post/7885…

And this is the Official Art they stole: siha49.deviantart.com/art/Biow…

Now I KNOW I don't need to link back to the official art for that last piece, considering it was the official art for Mass Effect 2.

Report them to whatever admin you can find.

This will not be allowed to continue.

A short request, everyone. When you are submitting art to our folders, please do NOT submit them to the proposed Favourites in featured folder. That folder requires three admins for approval, and we currently only have two. So please stop, because it won't happen until we find a third admin - which in turn won't happen because we don't need one.

And a gentle but insistent reminder:

You absolutely MUST FOLLOW THE INCLUDED INSTALL GUIDE WHEN INSTALLING THANEMOD.

This is none negotiable and you WILL crap out your game if you don't.

In addition, there are some anti-virus programs that flag the ThaneMOD files as viruses. Please don't be alarmed, the ThaneMOD files are NOT viruses.

This problem has been noted, and there IS a warning in the Install Guide. There is also a link to a web forum explaining the issue.

Problem is that if you are suffering from this issue, you will have to build a manual exception into the program. Or turn off your AV. The problem has been narrowed down to either the .exe or .dll or both files causing the problem.

No I do not know how to fix that. I think it's in the Install Guide.

Reminder to find the MOD on Nexusmods and the BSN.
