As hopefully I'm sure you can already see I've had a change in theme. Instead of my norm, I haven't gone ahead and opened up Adobe Photoshop, created a random design and then stamped my name on it. I've kept it fairly simple and I've just used an image of Grom Hellscream; an Orc character from my second favourite video game of all time: Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos for my banner. And then for my blog header I used the same image but continued it from the banner. Although the whole continue-from-the-banner-in-your-blog-header thing is pretty old and unused nowadays I've still always wanted to do one and now I have 
For my avatar I used the ending cinematic from the Orc Campaign (Invasion of Kalimdor) from the hit RTS game Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos. My original avatar .gif I was gonna have a much longer clip although when I created the avatar I found the GameSpot wouldn't allow such big files so I had to shorten it and cut it so it shows the awesome Grom giving a roar. I'm pretty happy with the final result but I would just like some of your opinions on my new theme 
Also, if you haven't already played Warcraft III, I reccomend that you do. It's an awesome Real-Time Strategy game which includes great gameplay and an immersive story told perfectly with all the in-game cut-scenes, the brilliant characters, and the great voice-acting. It seriously has the best story I've ever experienced in an RTS. Theres no other game like it...other than Starcraft of course 
But I just prefer Warcraft because I dislike the futuristic sci-fi-ishness of Starcraft.
I've just finished what must be my fourth replay of the game and it's still as awesome as ever. I've replayed The Frozen Throne (the expansion pack) a couple of times too but it could have done with some more time. It mainly lacks with the campaigns, they simply aren't as good as there isn't even a proper Orc campaign, you had to download some of the acts yourself because they just rushed to release the game. They're are also only two cinematics, awesome they may be but I want more!
Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos had many more, and they're simply great. The graphics are amazing and not just for an RTS game released in 2002, but even now they are much better than most cinematics/FMVs you'll see in other games. They truly are photo-realistic, you'll really find it hard to believe that it's a game almost eight years old.
I would love to see a sequel made, and my hopes are higher since Blizzard are releasing Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3. But they're raking it in with World of Warcaft, so the chances they will discontinue the franchise are dismal. And so there is no real need for them to continue it through the RTS series since they've chosen to go on ahead with the story in this MMORG 
But hey, I don't want to make this blog into some kind of rant. Please give me some feedback on my new theme and give Warcraft III a go if you haven't already. It's a must-buy for all RTS lovers!
