It would be great if someone could post this article somewhere.  I'm unable
to read 2 of the pages for some odd reason.

Jonathan Frid's Barnabas Collins was my first reluctant vampire.  My love
of Barnabas Collins led directly to Nick Knight.  I was one of those kids
who raced home from school to see *dark Shadows.

I am with Ramona. Never missed an episode and was crushed when the show was
canceled. Not withstanding the rubber bats on string it is still wonderful.
Barnabas of course was not as gorgeous (but still had a presence, his cane
and ring;)  as Nick or as evil as La Croix but 30 years did bring some
improvements. And of course watched Dark Shadows on Sci-Fi channel still
watch every Joan Bennett old movie on TCM. If Dark  Shadows and or Forever
Knight were on streaming Netfilx, I am there! I have not watched the
Twilight serious but I might get around to it one of these days. Forever
Knight was on when I was receiving chemo-therapy and was glad to have
something else to think and dream about besides being sick. The idea of
immortality when I was so ill was naturally appealing.

Subject: Help needed with Dark NatPack faction icon

I've been trying to make an icon for the Dark NatPack, but I still haven't
come up with something that I'm really pleased with.  I'd like to be able to
include something to characterize the faction besides a "dark" version of
the NatPack symbol (i.e. a modified caduceus).  I'll put one of those in,
too; but I usually add something extra.

I'd *really* rather prefer to avoid using the wine glass of Ribena again!
There's no doubt that it nicely symbolizes the vampire; but I've used it on
the Dark Knighties and Twilight/de Soir icons, *and* the Ravenette icon.
(Plus LaCroix holds another glass of it in the Light Cousins icon.)  I like
Ribena myself, but one can have too much of a good screencap.

I tried a crimson rose; but, to me, that seems more appropriate to symbolize
the Dark Nick and NatPack.  I guess the problem is partly that I'm having
trouble coming to grips with a "dark" Natalie *aside* from her romance with
Nick.

Do you have any ideas what I use to symbolize "dark Nat" in her own right?

Subject: Dark Shadows & FK

I'm another one who got interested in vampires via Dark Shadows and
Barnabas. I suspect the relationship between Barbabas and Julia is what set
me up for Nick and Nat.

Mmmm... can you alter the actual image of Natalie?
Made her look more like Janette?
Lighten her skin-tone towards "never saw the sun again", darken/fancyup her
clothing, add a décolletage?
Images from when she had dinner that time with LaCroix may make a suitable
starting point...
A simple head-shot where she has fangs would also get the point across very
nicely.
