    So this is the famous 'purple goo-covered demon seed'! I'm sure you're eager to post another build and many more after that but you really ought to work/practice formatting on your first build before you move on. Spruce this up with all the advice Mason gave you and make it look nice.

    If your second build is well-received , people will look at this as well and it may not leave a good impression. Mason's advice wasn't for your next build, he wanted to see this up to par before moving on. If were you, I'd totally overhaul this and finish by changing the name. When people see a new name they will think it is a new build and give it a second chance when you 'bump' it with new updated info.

    PS Change 'palivan' plz

    Yeah I agree, i have been putting a lot of time into my new build, but i will give this one a overhaul before i bring my second build out, you have a couple good points.

    Only speaking from experience cuz I did the same thing. Also, both of our first builds have similar backstories and are Bosmer archers. Great minds think alike?

    Yeah, I honestly did not see your build until last week , it was a great build, also seen we have used the same picture, I will swap it out for another one.

    I don't care about the pic. It can be difficult to find the perfect art for a build so use what ya can. I think there was a Bosmer Prince build that used the image too lol. If/when you do upgrade this, send me a PM :)

    Ok, this build has been overhauled, some boring parts were cut, name changed, pictures changed and added sections, Ning gave me some hell on this, wouldent let me center some pics, or make them bigger for some reason, but i still think it looks better than before, i put my nearly compleated second build on hold for this so i hope you think my time was not wasted, as always any criticism is welcome.

    Okay, let's see here. A couple of minor mistakes I noticed. First off, I'm generally not one to point out spelling mistakes, but you misspelled Alchemy under the skills section, and since you increased the font, it's really noticeable. The other thing is that under Dragon Shouts, you referred to your character as Palivan even though you changed the name. I'd also pick a better picture for the Alchemy section.

    Aside from those, the only other issue I have is formatting. Personally, I think there's a lot of unnecessary white space, so to speak, and some weird inconsistencies. For example, you seem to alternate between centering and left-aligning the different skills under the skills section. I'd also center more of the pictures, and put the skill pictures above the text where you talk about said skill.

    In any event, this is definitely a good first build. You're actually in Recognized now; time to change that Bloodworks tag!

    Thanks for catching those errors, and with the centering and left aligning thats something i'm working on, it was like that on microsoft word and i fixed it before copying onto Ning, then when i post it goes back to the way before i fixed it, i have tried fixing that 4 times now and everytime i post it goes out.

    Yeah, Ning can be a pain in the ass to deal with at times.

    Does Mason have to change tags, or do we do it?
