First skin "Magdalena" was created by Mimmy of "Red Carpet and Rebellion" and RPG-Underground, sidebar by Dana of RPG Underground, header and first banner by Raven of “Before the Mast”, who created the site on 19 July 2010 and provided all the initial coding.

The new skin implemented on Candlemas specially for us was created by our beloved cartographer and Fleet Admiral Moru, as well as the following ones.

Documentation created by Elena and Raven after having extensively researched on the internet, so they obviously share the credits with the original sources. Credits are given to the present and former staff of "Beat to Quarters" and to Fluff of "Age of Intrigue" for their contribution to the resource pages and their kindness in sharing their historical resources with us. The documentation submitted by the other members is duly credited to them. The same for the documentations taken over from resource sites.

The Staff Agreement has been drafted by compiling creatively and adapting to the specific of “Before the Mast” ideas from the staff contracts used by “Ich Dien” and “Absit Omen”, as well as various ideas from the staff guides existing on “RPG Directory”, “RPG Underground” and “Caution”. Many thanks to the staff of these websites and to those who had submitted useful documentation!

The “Character of the Month” coding kindly provided by Lioe of “Beat to Quarters”.

The idea of the player/ character interview within the monthly news chronicle was suggested by Gothic from "Aeterna Roma".

Credits for the award buttons we have offered at our one year and a half anniversary - Winterslittlepet of Caution.

Credits for the graphics used on the site go to their respective authors, known or unknown, and nobody who uses a graphic which doesn't belong to him/ her doesn't take any credit for it. A special thanks goes to Angela in this respect, as she helped us when she doesn't even understand English at all.
