Hi Crescent!!!
Can you help? I wanted to write an entry related to astrology. Do you know if there is any way of inserting astrological glyphs for the various signs and planets?
Thanks
Zaphod

Hey Zaphod, just replied on the other thread, but will talk to you from here, from now on As I said I am going for a shuftey at the BLOBs Until later....

OK, the best I could find was on http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A426593 there is a BLOB with all the zodiacal signs (but no planet signs). I imagine that you will want individual signs for the houses and the planets. I will ask TPTB, if you like Let me know, well until later....

Thanks Crescent for pursuing my inquiry. I did, in fact, discover the astrology blob (which will be a useful addition) but yes, you're right, I specifically wanted to insert individual glyphs for planets and signs into an entry on astrology. It would pose problems if I couln't.
I'll wait and see what you come up with.
Ta again

I have asked Abi to see what she can do Until later....

OK here is the gen. For simple Entries, it seems unlikely, Sam and Ashley seem to decide which Entries get pictures. However, if you turn it into a Uni Project that would more likely get art patronage :) I must admit I would like to see a Uni Project on Astrology, including, hopefully, how to cast a horoscope. That would be cool :) You may want to talk to Abi more, yourself, follow this link :) http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/F36526?thread=129912 If you need me to do anything else, just yell :) Until later.....

Thanks for taking my local difficulty up with Abi. I have contacted her (him? - we never know do we?) on existing thread to signal my intentions and to point out that it'll be rather impractical to commence the entry without knowing availability or otherwise of glyphs.
There was one other thing I wanted to ask of you Crescent. If you've got the time can you read my latest entry in peer review on alchemy (A586190). Only it doesn't seem to be generating much interest at the mo and a little feedback would make a big, big difference to me.
Thanks in advance

Sorry it took so long to get back to you about your alchemy beastie, never fear you are not forgotten I had a look through it, comprehensive. I quite liked it, even though I am not a big fan of psychiatry, and what it spouts. Before I critique it fully, though I am going to have to some auxillary reading. Mainly about the psychiatry of it, to try and get rid of my negative feelings about it I will let you know when I am done Until later.....
