The following thread is intended to give people the opportunity to offer their help in a more direct and active way of getting involved with a project. This is directed mainly to people who have any expertise in a certain field, like, for example an artist offering to do illustrations.

Dos:
Please state your name, field of expertise (maybe equipment), contact data, and how you'd imagine possible co-operation (time, communicating, etc), and maybe references to what you've done so far so that people can get an impression of your "qualifications".

Don'ts:
Please do not enter into discussions - this is just intended as a list from which people can choose the assistance they need.

Name:
Matthias Janssen

Field of 'expertise':
PDF creation
Article layout
Image editing
Heraldry creation (graphics & emblazining)
Map creation
Spreadsheet generation

Equipment:
PhotoShop Creative Suite 2
Canon layout templates for CS2
Official Fonts (Korinna BT & Amasis)
Microsoft Office
Graphic Pen & Tablet

References:
I created the heraldry for the new Columbia Games articles, as well as for Kelestia Productions' "Evanekin" article. I participated in the Kaldor Kingdom Module as a writer. I also wrote and layouted the Fanon adventure "Carved in stone" and cooperated with various writers (Neil Thompson, Dan Bell, ...) on different Fanon articles. I am currently working on a mapping template/style which can be previewed at http://www.terraficta.net . I work as a professional artist/designer.

What I can do:
I can assist people who have an article in whatever format to create a (technically speaking) 'proper' PDF, including text layout, proofreading, image processing...

What I can't do:
I cannot be of much help concerning whether an article's content it is in accordance to canon. I have limited time, so please don't be upset if I turn a request down or postpone it to a later time.

Cooperation:
I can basically handle all file formats and rceive large emails as well. If sent an article, I can read it through, give feedback, and do proofreading (remember: typos & grammar, not content concerning Canon publications). When the content is finished, I can create PDFs. I'll need all original art and texts to do so.

Contact:
You can contact me via Private Message, E-Mail (matthias.janssen@online.de), ICQ (172-387-395), or via Skype (Matthias Janssen)

I wrote Selvos Castle and assisted with Tashal v2 and Kaldor v2 for CGI, along with numerous fanon articles under the banner of HWG (the Harn Writers' Guild), most recently "The Earl's Progress", available on lythia.com. I am currently working on an adventure for HarnCon 4 plus several articles for CGI. I am a civil engineer technologist and officer in the military.

What I can do:
I can assist people who have an article in whatever format to create a (technically speaking) 'proper' PDF, including text layout, proofreading, image processing...

What I can't do:
Because I always have several project (offical and fanon) on the go at one time, my time is limited. I can provide brief reviews of articles in progress, but I am not looking to co-author any additional articles at this time (unless it was REALLY cool...).

References:
I am writing the Fethael Hundred project (three manors to go) and have contributed to several of the recent CGI releases that featured Kaldor. I've also written and now edit Thonahexus, Harn's e-zine. I am a college professor and have published extensively in information technology and computer science.

What I can do:
I can assist people, especially non-native English speakers, with spelling and grammar. I also enjoy helping develop plots and characters with people that have a good idea but need assistance moving from an outline to a full article.

What I can't do:
Because I always have several projects (offical and fanon) on the go at one time, my time is limited. I can provide brief reviews of articles in progress and, if the project is reasonably advanced, can do some editing. At times work catches up with me, so I'll always let you know when I'll be able to get you my feedback.

Cooperation:
I prefer working in the MSOffice formats, since that's what I have. I can receive large emails. If sent an article, I can read it through, give feedback, do proofreading and some "light" editing. If you want a more thorough editing and content scrub, please let me know up front.

References:
I have done several maps for various folks on the forum. I have also worked on several maps that have appeared in several fanon articles by Kerry and other writers. I have worked and learn the basics of the trade from Jocke and other excellent mappers who have come before me.

What I can do:
I can assist people who have an article and need interior or local maps created with the CGI canon look.

What I can't do:
I cannot be of much help concerning whether an article's content it is in accordance to canon. Like the rest scheduling all depends on what is going on, as I am usually engaged in several various projects going for CGI and fanon release.

Cooperation:
I can basically handle all file formats and receive large emails as well. If provided sketches of maps I can translate them to appear as CGI maps. Also, am willing to help design and layout out maps based on text or the writer's ideas.

References:
I’ve done (a very small) amount of work for the revised CGI Kaldor Kingdom Module. Longtime collaborator with Matthias Janβen, & Dan Bell. I mapped most of Dan’s early stuff, based on his sketches. I playtested the Fanon adventure "Carved in Stone" for Matthias and co-operated with him on a number of other projects, some still unfinished.

What I can do:
I can provide a CC2 Mappa Harnica map (usually) fairly quickly.

What I can't do:
I can’t do ‘technical stuff,’ layouts & formatting are beyond me.

Cooperation:
I can do CC2 maps (though not everyone likes them) and I can advise, but I tend to be a little selfish, and work on what interests me, not what others want.

Amateur mapmaker (CC2/Mappa Harnica)

Amateur medieval landscape archaeologist (currently armchair - not many grassy humps and bumps in the desert)
20 years' Harnic GMing

Can send and receive large files

Harnic Resources:
Currently limited - HMG rules set, HarnWorld, Cities and a full run of EH. I'm running on a minimum.

What I'm prepared to do:
Help you with smaller projects. My time is limited, and my schedule hectic. I'm more likely to be interested in turning competent writing into good writing than turning bad writing into competent writing, and even more likely to be interested in providing a map or a couple of character portraits. My canon and rules checking abilities are limited to my current resources.

Quirks:
I write and edit in British English, not only by upbringing but also by profession. I'm not prepared to jeopardise the skills which put bread on my table by learning to edit in American English. I tried it once, and it's still causing me problems.

File types:
I can read Quark, Word 97, PDF and the usual graphics formats. I provide words in plain text or Word 97 format, maps in CC2 or PNG format, page layouts in Quark or PDF format and illustrations in JPG.

I currently have no access to Korinna or Amasis fonts.

I have 16 years experience as a game designer; I worked professionally in the field for 6 years, and have freelanced for 16 for such companies as WEG, WoTC, TSR, Decipher, GDW, Pinnacle, LUG, Fantasy Flight, and others. I has 13 years of professional editing experience; 6 in the game industry, the rest in the defense industry.

I led the design team for the Lerenil fanon article to produce what is generally recognized as a quality Harn fanon article. I wrote a good portion of the material and designed the maps.

What I Can Do
I edit, write game material, and create sensible maps in the Harn spirit. I can also assist on the production end, though I have only dabbled in InDesign.

I am interested in supporting a larger project by contributing a sub-article or providing editorial services. I'm very good on a team level at brainstorming and connecting disparate bits of information to create new and interesting material. I fact-check material against canon, but do not regard myself as a Harn expert except in limited areas (Chybisa).

What I Can't Do
I don't generate stats for HarnMaster or any other game system.

Cooperation
I can work in just about any format. I am a Mac guy.

I can write and edit in American or International English.

What about Terraficts help? :wink: I'm rather busy trying to finish off a scenario before Iviniacon (eek), but I'd really to discuss Terraficta with you after the con.

Thanks. It's nice to be back - feels sort of like coming home. :)

Of course I'll also do terraficta help. The website is already back up, but there is no help section so far. I'm not even sure whether I'll create a full help section there, since it's a pain in the ass writing it and also, I think some basics or FAQs will serve the jb to get people started just as well. The advanced stuff is trial and error - even for me.

So just get back to me when you're back from the con (*sob*).

Official Fonts (Korinna BT & Amasis)

I'm CAD manager for one of the largest Property consultants in the UK (NPS) based in our main Southwest office in Exeter, Devon. Although I work all over the country when needed.
Aside from having to deal with heritage buildings professionally I also deal with them in my spare time. I help look after a 11th century chapel and bits of my own house have been dated to 950AD.
I got into designing layouts for RPGs while at school over 20 years ago. And I've been drawing castles since I was about 6. It's what got me into architecture.
I also have a huge library of reference material.

What I can do:
I can assist with building layouts and architectural details. I can do proofreading and help with images.

What I can't do:
Time is always a problem. I'm usually very busy. However I love Hârn and will usually fit in a bit of proofreading or feedback even if it means reading it before going to sleep.
There are other people on the forum who are better than me when it comes to producing the finished article.

Cooperation:
I can basically handle all file formats and receive large emails. I'll happily do research for people who are looking for inspiration or are stuck with a niggling problem. Providing I think I can find an answer and I'm not up to my eyeballs in work. Basically I will try not to waste peoples time by saying I'll do something and then take months over it.

I have been lurking on the forum for some times, but I had not noticed this thread until now. So, here I am.
From a quick look at the references of peoples above, I am quite amazed at the range of available skills. Are there projects going on using those ressources?
