  As this is a new guild with so few people on it, and it is still under construction, perhaps a list of ideas for what we could have is in order. I'm not the owner of the guild, nor do I have any part in running it, but I know it takes a lot to get a board/guild set up.
A few ideas of mine:
For the Roleplaying -
Perhaps a thread for people to register their characters, have them aprooved by the mods, and then they could have their own thread to store however many characters they plan to use in their roleplays?
Theme/Art for the guild?
Being an artist..... I can't stand things looking plain. Should we decide on what the guild art and such will look like?

Not only are you talkative, but you're very helpful, Flite. For that, I wish to thank you very much... Although I'm sure you're just trying to get rid of me. Give the command, and I shall leave you alone.
The subforums that we have up cost gold from the guild account. I had to pay the guild 5,000 gold just to get those two subforums. I'm not sure how much more I can afford, to be honest.... Just felt that you should be warned about that... Although I get the feeling that it doesn't even pertain to what you just wrote... Oops.
I can create a thread to register characters and whether or not they are approved by the mods. And people are always more than welcome to start their own threads to store their characters. It won't bother me unless it goes against any of the rules.
Mmm... Getting a theme is a good idea. If we get one, I will be at a loss of how to decorate the guild with it. I'm not that good at HTML or CSS in real life (although I've mastered them in my dreams). So... A theme to the guild would be great, if you have a way of getting it onto the guild page...

I'm not trying to get rid if you! Just trying to help! =3 If I'm being TOO helpful, to the point where I'm annoying, just tell me as well.
I figured the subforums would cost gold. If we're in need for some in the future, we can always fundraise, right? X3
I can get HTML stuffs if I need to. I have a book about it, so... ya. I can figure it out if needed. We won't be able to 'decorate' the guild, but all the modded posts, as well as the main page of the guild could have decoration of some sort. Y'know, how guilds have banners on their main pages and such. X3

Okay... Let me see if I understand this correctly, because I usually don't get stuff right on the first try.
We can fundraise for the gold needed for different subforums. My only question is what would we put in those subforums? (and where in the world is edwardlovrgrl when I need to talk to her?!)
Let's see if I understand this part- this is the part that kicked me out of my chair. We can add a theme to the main page and have something for every mod? Like what, exactly? A signature or something they put in each and every post? Can't think of anything else.
Oh, and two things to tell you right now. One is that I finally got a guild logo put together (although it sucks). The other is that.... the sparklies on your post make me happy. *grin* Soooo pretty!

Subforums - If in the future, we need another one for any reason, THEN we could fundraise. Until we need one, there's no point in getting gold for it, or buying a new one. =3
Front Page - Just a banner of some sort, or decorations around the text there. Something a little artsy on the front page other than just text.
Mod posts - Should we have events and such, then we could have images to put in the mod's posts for just those events. It's.... kind of confusing even to me. *laughs* But see how I have stuff in my post? If we have some sort of event, then we could put decorations and such around the first post of that topic.

Yeah... That's what I was wondering about. It'sl ike buying the dog food before you get the dog. It's a bit strange.
Well, I have the image in my signature. I can try making something else, but I would need help finding good graphics for it. I'm an expert with Photoshop, but I tend to have a bit of problems finding graphics that I can work with. Most of the time I need someone to tell me what to do.
And the thing on the most posts just confused the eva-livin' out of me. I don't get it (and I'm sorry for my stupidty). Anyway... If I suddenly stop talking, then it's because I've found something else that is appeasing me. I can't pay attention to one thing for the life of me.
Oh, Flite... Thank you very much for doing this with me. It makes a world of difference to be able to talk to someone about it- even though I'm sure I sound like an idiot.

(It's not all THAT odd... I mean, I have a bird cage, and no bird. XD I just wanted a bird cage in my room. I do things like that sometimes. So buying dog food before getting a dog really isn't that.... odd for me. *laughs*)
I'm more than willing to look for graphics and such. I'm in charge of quite a lot of visual productions at my school, so I'm used to finding things online to decorate powerpoints and such with. Finding graphics should be no problem at all.
It's okay about the posts. I'm not really clear about things sometimes, so it might be partially my fault.
No problem. *smiles* Anything to help out a friend.

Still, I thank you very much for this. If you can find some graphics, that would be wonderful. Right now, I have the same two graphics for the guild banner and for my signature. Not very special, I know, but I haven't felt like myself since I woke up.
Perhaps I should go back to sleep.

Go ahead and go to sleep. =3 I'll work on finding stuff.
EDIT:
Here are some pics I found that might be of interest to you for banners and such.

Thank you very much, Flite. You are awesome. I will post when I'm back on- or I will PM you. If you want, you can PM the graphics to me and I can try to work with them. If you want to do the work, you're more than welcome to. I won't fight a chance to avoid work. *grin*

I was wondering about you... You want to help us with figuring out a theme for the guild? I think that's the harder part of things at the moment...
Yes, I slept in as well. No. Wait. I lied. I woke up at eight in the morning (or a bit after) and then went back to sleep at eleven. I just woke up again and everyone seems in SUCH a good mood. I miss the depressing emo kids at Santa Su in times like this...

Ideas for a theme:
Main Roleplays set in a specific location, a specific time
Time (Clocks, and all that)
Create a mythology behind a 'main plot' of the guild
People would be able to go off of this main plot at any time, but there would still be events pertaining to the guild itself. Personally, I really like the time one. I was in this store earlier today after my appointment (see below story), and there was an entire floor of an old-fashioned building that was COMPLETELY clocks. It was SO SPIFFY.
Then there's this pic... and the clock tower here [x] and a few writing prompts from Livejournal I have stored away, if anyone's interested in the idea. =3
I SHOULD be getting sleep. I went to the doctor's today to check up on my issues with blood pressure and heart rate (because they couldn't figure anything out before), and they finally got a medecine they think might help. The only problem. It will make me PALER than I already am. I already look like a freaking vampire. >.< (Or a female Jack Skellington, with all the pinstripes I wear) And on the way home I developed a fever of 102*F! Huzzah! *pases out*

HI guys i've been away for a small while, my suggestion is to put our guild as a town topic and recruit people where there are really popular town gatherings. I saw another guild do the same, that is how i joined.

You have a good idea, Flite. The clock idea, I mean. It sounds pretty good.
