really happy to have discovered something hiding in plain sight for several years: robyn & rand miller's original Myst pitch document from 1991.

it's a succinct work of art in itself. i'm surprised at how much of the world design was already on paper.

as all of the copies found elsewhere online are heavily compressed webp/jpeg, i've uploaded the robyn's original PNGs to IA here:

And it’s time for my fourth and final #MARCHintosh project for 2026, TalkCrawler AD. It’s an After Dark Module for TalkCrawler that will let you watch #GlobalTalk leisurely scroll past in one of two different styles

There is a standalone version as well if you don't want to install After Dark

Note you will need to run a re-scan in TalkCrawler Lite 1.4 (just released) before it can show anything

Available on landisk/Blackbird on BaroNet. Video in first reply.

#GlobalTalk.wiki has its first online “customer”!

@scj has set up a sub wiki for his Purrtopia zone (and other info, too!).

You can find it at https://purrtopia.globaltalk.wiki

I’ve also placed previews of all the theme templates I have installed, you can find that on the QuickStart page at https://globaltalk.wiki/doku.php?id=quickstart

It shows the current state of the main wiki, but in each of the installed themes.

That will likely help sub-wiki owners to choose their preferred theme (and I may change the main wiki’s too).
