Hello there! Here's the latest news from the Talking Xena Message Board:

The staff would like to thank everyone who replied to our questionnaire, we got lots of good feedback and we're now ready to make some changes. The first big change is the addition of the Tech Zone Forum. This will be a place for discussions about computers, the Internet, electronic gaming and everything else in the tech world. It will also be a place to come and ask for help with your tech problems or if you're a tech head to help out a fellow member. With the addition of this forum one of the next changes will be the merging of the Help Forum into the Tech Zone.

Some of the other changes you'll be seeing are a new look for the front page of Talking Xena, combining the Sci-Fi Forum into the TV, Movie & Music Forum, a place to find links to those old threads you can't find and a few others we're still discussing.

In the mean time we're always here to listen to any other ideas you might have, just visit the TX Suggestion Box and drop us a line. And if you're not a member of TX yet, please stop by and become one--it's free!

What's Happening on TX
July - August 2009

Hello Xenafans!
 
I hope everyone is enjoying their Summer or Winter. I can't believe the 15th Anniversary XWP Convention is only about 5 months away in January 2010. It's been 15 years since we first saw our dynamic duo. Time sure does fly when you're having fun in the Xenaverse. And speaking of fun, we've got lots of fun happenings on TX for you.

Special Opportunities from AUSXIP Exclusively for TX Members:

As mentioned in our May/June TX message, MaryD has been so impressed by our talented TX banner artists that she has decided to extend a very special never-before offered opportunity to TX's graphic artists from AUSXIP, one of the oldest, largest, most well known and respected websites in the Xenaverse.

The AUSXIP Renee O'Connor.info,
Lucy Lawless.info and Lucy Lawless Flawless Diva
Banner Contests

Attention Renee O'Connor and Lucy Lawless fans! Design a Renee O'Connor banner and/or Lucy Lawless banner and you could see your artwork displayed at the top of AUSXIP's very popular Renee O'Connor.info, Lucy Lawless.info or Lucy Lawless Flawless Diva website!

You can read all of the contest details in ROC Chat and Lucy Chat and be sure to have your entries submitted by the July 31 deadline.

Once the entries have been received, it will be time for everyone to admire the art and post their vote for each contest.


TX Video Challenge #6 Videos:

The videos were submitted and the votes were posted and counted for Best ROC Video in the TX Video Challenge #6. If you haven't seen these excellent videos yet or if you have but want to enjoy them again, get out the image and head over to the Awards Ceremony topic. Enjoy the video salutes to ROC's career and help us congratulate all the video creators, especially the award recipients. Renee is aware of the video salutes and on her forum she expressed her interest in watching them to check out the creativity of the video producers.


TX Monthly Banner Contests:

Our very popular monthly banner contests continue for the August ROC Chat, Lucy Chat and Subtext Central banners.

The August banner theme for ROC Chat and Lucy Chat is Friendship in honor of International Friendship Day on August 2. Don't forget to post your vote for each during the voting period approximately July 19 through July 30.

Watch for the announcement of the September banner contest themes approximately July 31. Design a ROC Chat and/or Lucy Chat banner and you could win a ROC Chat Banner of the Year Contest and/or Lucy Chat Banner of the Year Contest in December.

Over in Subtext Central, the response to the Norse Trilogy banner theme for July was huge. We received so many gorgeous banner entries that the August theme of our Subtext Central Banner of the Month Contest is once again Images from The Norse Trilogy. Starting July 17, TX members can choose the August Subtext Central banner from among all of the beautiful entries received for July's contest minus the one banner that was July's winner. Be sure to post your vote when the voting topic is posted in Subtext Central.

And watch for the announcement of the September Subtext Central Banner of the Month Contest theme coming soon.

Something Fun for TX Members using a Windows Operating System:

For TX members using a computer running a Windows Operating System, we have some special fun for you - our first TX XWP Jigsaw Puzzle. It's an approximately 40 piece puzzle you put together on your computer screen featuring a MaryD montage of Lucy & Renee behind the scenes images.

The zipped file for the Talking Xena July 2009 Puzzle can be downloaded by right clicking HERE and choosing Save Target As. The unzipped file is just over 300 KB and is an exe file. To open the puzzle, just run/double click on the downloaded file. Nothing will be installed on your computer. Only the puzzle will be opened on your computer.

For those concerned about downloading and running an exe file, CNET's Download.com tested the software used to create the puzzle and rated it Spyware Free. CNET has several policies in place to ensure that the software in their download library does not contain viruses or other malware. You can read CNET's policies HERE. In addition, I've scanned both the puzzle creator software and the puzzle it created with McAfee, It found nothing and I have had no problems.

Have fun putting it together. Please feel free to let us know in General Xena Chat what you think of the puzzle and if you'd like more of them in the future.

Our sincere apologies to all of our TX members only using Macs. If we find software that creates jigsaw puzzles for Macs, we will be sure to create something for you.


We Want to Hear From YOU:

In our continuing efforts to keep Talking Xena a fun place for all members, we need to hear from you. Keep an eye out for a short but important TX Member Survey coming to your Yuku Inbox very soon. Your input from the survey will help us keep TX an entertaining and informative place you'd want to spend your time online.


The TX Staff invites you to enter and/or vote in our contests, come check out our TX Video Challenge #6 videos and have fun hanging out chatting with your friends on Talking Xena.

See you on TX! If you're not a member yet, come on over and sign up! It's free, easy, and totally worth your while!
