Please post submission guidelines (or something to the effect that you are not accepting unsolicited submissions) on your website when you have the chance, OBE. It'd warm my heart.
We don't have 'em yet. I think we want to give it a couple months to find our feet, make sure our product line reflects our vision, etc, and then start considering things like that. But I'll bring it up with the founders -- thanks for the request!
I mentioned this in another thread, but thought I would throw it in here. Despite being a staunch opponent of animals with intelligence in D&D (at least as player races) I was compelled to buy this product, and I have got to say, thumbs up, you have made one very cool race that I will definitely be using in the future, in my campaign.
Also, the "bonus-pdf", with information about the Shroud was very intriguing. You have come up with a great idea for a campaign setting (or part thereof)

Thanks, Jack. We definitely tried to set the bar for our products with the Apelord, and we're hopeful that we can meet or exceed it in our future releases.
Stay tuned for another (entirely humanoid) player race around Halloween--and, if we're lucky, some other material mid-month (though that might be delayed by a vacation I'm going to be on October 10th-19th).

Are you going to reflavour the race so it's not animalistic, or have you decided you will have animals with intelligence in your D&D? I ask only because I'm interested in whether the pdf changed how you play your game, or if you're just changing the presentation.

As I see it right now, I do not think I will reflavour it. I just read the pdf and fell in love. Okay, that might be a bit stronger than the actual feeling I had, but I am sure you get my meaning. I think I am ready!
What happens when the faithful lose their way? What happens when a Paladin falls?
The loss of faith can be a terrible tragedy. For many, it is the end of everything. But a few weather this trial with strength and dignity and come out stronger for it—bloodied and battered, but Unbroken.
Inside this PDF you’ll find a new paragon path for the Paladin class, a new magic item, a monster template, and a faithless angel. You’ll also find two new feats that can be used by any character at any tier to add an “aspect’ of honor and sacrifice to your play.
I bought this. Overall it is the best production of a 4E product you have done. It will be awhile untill I can playtest it.
The covers on the Apelord and Witch Doctor were not that good. This cover is much better. You should upgrade the others. I would like to see power cards added like Alea did with the noble class and like LPJ design plans to do with the Elohim. You should add power cards to the Witch Doctor too (and add the class power cards to the Apelord).

Yep, I'm thinking about it. Honestly, the Apelord and Witch Doctor were conceived of as "interior pages only", which is why they looked as they did, but it's become clear that folks want a "real-looking cover" on everything, so I changed over to the new design.
I'm almost certain to upgrade the Apelord, but since the Witch Doctor's still in playtest, there's not a lot of need to do the upgrade there. The Witch Doctor in its final version definitely will get the full treatment, though!

Help me understand the need here more clearly -- what does a power card get you that printing out that page of the PDF and cutting out the power writeup itself doesn't? A standard shape & size? Or is there something more to it?
(In other words, I want to make sure I understand what's being asked for in full, before I go off and do it. This isn't resistance, it's curiosity!)

Thanks again!
It makes it extremely easy for us if you guys can format the powers to that standard size (afaik it's 2.5 inch wide, and 3.5 inch high) in the back of the pdf (I think you can fit 8 or9 powers per page, usually, depending on if you do landscape or not), so that we can print out whole pages to cut, and they fit those small plastic pockets we use for all the other powers.

Hope that made some sense.
Yep! That's essentially "9-up" format, used for playing cards and other such things. 2.5 x 3.5 gets you a 3x3 grid on 8.5" x 11" page with a bit of margin around it.
I'll look into educating myself some more on this feature and do what I can, thanks for the suggestions, guys.

Infected with dark, necrotic magics while dying, the half-dead have returned only part-way to life, their flesh afflicted by an undead curse. Though they can be killed, Death’s grip upon the half-dead is a slippery one at best. Half-dead characters—whether tragic heroes or dark villains—hound their foes relentlessly, driven to action by the horror of their condition. Many half-dead seek to hide their nature from others. When the half-dead are finally revealed for what they are, much of the world responds with horror, revulsion, and worse.
Inside this PDF you’ll find a complete player race for Dungeons & Dragons Fourth Edition, along with ten racial feats to bring the horror within to life. You’ll also find a monster template, a dead minotaur back for revenge, story ideas, and power cards.
Races of the Shroud: The Half-Dead, written by Fred Hicks and Lee Hammock, is a six-page PDF and is priced at $1.99.
