So, ya got something to say to me?
Cool. But first, lemme answer the usual questions to save us both some time
and modem wear...
-
Will you put my stuff up on your site?
Castle Numbskull is mainly a place for me to put my own MOTU-based fanstuff.
However, that doesn't mean I will not post other people's fanstuff if it
tickles my fancy (and, of course, if the creator gives permission!) The kinds
of stuff I'm likely to post are Trollan-centric works, fanstuff based on
my works especially (ego-stroking, yeah!), or really quirky interesting things
that I wouldn't expect. The kind of things I'm not likely to post include
poor quality art or art on ruled notebook paper, artwork in huge files or
formats other than GIF or JPG, anything that doesn't fall in with the theme
of this site, and anything submitted by anyone other than the creator.
-
Can I link to your site?
Yes, feel free! I take it as a compliment when people link to my site.
-
Can I put your stories, artwork, etc on my site?
In most cases, the answer will be no. I put a lot of time and effort into
the things I create, and I want them to be unique to this site. I don't mind
people downloading pictures, movies, stories, or whatever to their hard drives,
if it's just for their own personal use. However, I do not want them re-archived
all over the web! There are a few exceptions, such as the Mood Orkons; they
are clearly marked.
-
Then can I link directly to your files?
Please don't! That's the same as taking them and putting them on your
site, except that it uses up my bandwidth too. (I've been known to change
file names and locations to deliberately break other people's links when
I've found them direct linking to my files. I wouldn't put it past Gonzo
to replace the image with something rude to get a point across.) However,
if you want to link to my site and tell people where the file you're recommending
is as opposed to linking to the file directly, I don't mind that at all.
in fact, I take it as a compliment!
-
Can I draw something based on your ideas?
Be my guest! I love stuff like that. Send me a copy, please. :)

Orko doesn't look like that!
Maybe he does, maybe he doesn't. I designed Trollan faces back when the original
show was airing, and modified them slightly for the current pictures. If
you don't like the design, that's OK. Until we see Orko's face in the cartoon,
no fan-created design is any more or less valid than any other.
If the above didn't cover what you wanted to say or ask, you can write to
