2,000 posts!

Just a little more than a month after reaching our first milestone, we've hit another! We now have over 2,000 posts. Thank you to all of our members for helping to make this community thrive!

To celebrate this milestone, I've added an bonus new Phantasy Star: Generation 1 wallpaper: Alis in Sunset.

The regular monthly wallpaper is available now, too. August's wallpaper features some of the ladies from Phantasy Star III.

Hooray!

Wow, Thoul, did you make that one of the PSIII women? It's excellent! And I love that wallpaper of Alis! You've got some amazing visuals on this site, Thoul! Keep it up!

Ah, the good ol' artwork. Always great to look at.

Gotta love the ladies of PSIII! Though I know there's an existing Thea somewhere, using "Wata" (should be Wat) in the picture. Do you have that one? Asking out of curiousity, of course.

Yay! I bet there's no other classic PS community that is this active.

Now, let's see how long it takes to hit the next big number!

Nope. It's never had a very strong online following, sadly enough, but this place is shaping up to be the definitive Phantasy Star community.

Myes, we rule-in online Phantasy Star forum terms!

Thanks. I've always tried to make sure that this site has a lot of unique content, and the images have always been a big part of that for me.

I can't take full credit for making the PSIII Women wallpaper. I did make the version here, but the art is from some scans I downloaded long, long ago. Kara, at the top, is from a different source image than the other three. I combined them and put them on this background.

That image of Alis is one of my favorite scenes in PS:G1 so far. Although, I like the one I'm going to use for the next wallpaper a little bit more.

I do, but it's not a very good quality scan. I was going to use it for this wallpaper too, but it was too grainy and small compared to the others. I wish I knew the original source of that art; I'd try to get it and scan it myself if I did.

Well, I noticed the Congratulatory thread I posted in the General Discussion thread above regarding the 2000 milestone had been shut down and referred to this post instead. Excuse me for not seeing this thread before and posting those well wishes above. That won't happen again. Congrats to the board.

It's not a problem. It's just best to keep this kind of stuff in one place. I would have combined the two topics into one, but this board software doesn't have that ability.
