SOE Fan Faire Blog - Part Three on MMORPG.COM (http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/gameId/2/setView/features/loadFeature/561)
The first thing that I saw was EverQuest art, nothing very surprising there. Then I took a look at some of the other pieces that the artist had displayed, and noticed some very familiar novel cover art. It was about then that I started to make the connection between EverQuest and the Dungeons and Dragons original Dragonlance novel covers. Sitting behind that particular table was Larry Elmore whose art I and many gamers had grown up seeing. Needless to say, it was a thrill to meet the man who was very friendly and took time to talk with anyone who came by.
