So what exactly does 5.5 mean about websites, minis and the like? Do they mean that you can't license a website, interactive product or minis? Or do they somehow mean you can't use a website, build an interactive product or sell minis that are associated with your licensed product? I can't...

That is quite possibly the nicest compliment I have ever received. It hits to the very core of what I was aiming for. You humble me, sir.

Thanks again for the responses everyone. Steve - I can only hope that one day you guys won't have to design by committee. As I said at Dragon Ave, it's unfortunately something that is par for the course at a lot of companies. If only more organizations left the experts to do their jobs. Good...

:) No official reaction but that's probably par for the course. A little disappointed in the lack of feedback over there. I expected more responses there than here. I was under the impression that the community is much larger there. http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?t=1025486

I've heard a lot of complaints about the various online portions of the Magic site. I haven't really dug into it myself. At a glance, that site is even worse. Completely turns me away, but then I am probably not their target.

I sincerely doubt budget is the issue. A 13ft beholder statue is not exactly a cheap thing to make. Given their push towards a digital initiative it only makes sense that they would have moved some funds around to their online department. While I am extremely critical of WotC's implementation...

Time and money are always a bit hard to estimate without a significant investment in understanding exactly what the problems are, the goals outlined and the technical challenges and limitations addressed. This sort of design could have absolutely nothing to do with the direction WotC wanted to...

Thanks for all the great compliments guys. I really appreciate it. @MaelStorm - The font is Pterra-Dactyl. I determined it by opening one of the Dragon magazine articles in Illustrator.

Hi guys. I wanted to say that I appreciate everyone's feedback on my thoughts about the D&D website. I probably could have been a little bit more constructive than I was. I took it to heart and decided that there was no better way to help show you what I meant than to spend a little time...

Wow. Looks like I got beat to the punch on transcribing these. That could have saved me some trouble. :P I've posted transcriptions of all the pages up on Dragon Ave: http://www.dragonavenue.com/dnd/post/a_glimpse_at_the_4e_phb/

Good points Kenmarable. I'll take them to heart. I didn't expect to garner this much interest from folks so I didn't spend the time on the video I probably should have. I think in my attempt at brevity I missed some of the broader problem with the site and narrowed in on a few specific...

@charwoman No offense taken. Just more encouragement to keep up the new exercise routine. Sorry you found the video too snarky for your taste. I do agree with you on my lighting. My office is NOT the place to film. Next time! @morris Happy to put my knowledge at your service. Will look over the...

Heya Morris. I'll check into your issues today. I imagine you are having more issues with IE6 than 7. I'm not sure how versed your are in IE's bugs but this is a pretty decent overview: http://css-tricks.com/ie-css-bugs-thatll-get-you-every-time/

Thanks for all the responses guys, both positive and negative. This is my first attempt at a video like that. The only way to learn is to jump in with both feet and start swimming. :) Would love to see someone else do a video. :) I think it should be said that I really love D&D and what WotC is...

Review of the new D&D site I've always been impressed with Wizard's print products. They only seem to be getting better as time goes along. I was particularly impressed with Races and Classes and Worlds and Monsters. They seem to have finally gotten over their desire to put headlines at the...

So many great ideas here. Thanks so much for the help folks. So far here is what I am thinking. Frestkuul's Lair As you cross the frozen landscape, following the lead of your golden guide through the storm, you can barely make out the sounds of the ocean ahead of you. Occasionally you hear a...

Dannyalcatraz - I completely agree with you about making creatures use their intelligence. I love the idea of using freezing water to its advantage. I also love the idea of using his tail to tear into the ceiling, bring ice down on their heads. I imagine this is how I will trap the Gold Dragon...

Indeed they are quite interesting. I fear my party may just fly over them. Perhaps some frost worms live in the iceberg?

I'm looking for a bit of help writing up the lair for the White Wyrm, Frestkuul Icetongue (CR 21ish). Alas I have yet to write this up and am in desperate need of help from my fellow DMs. I really want to make this lair and encounter interesting, so any suggestions would be most helpful. I am...

Thanks. There is also a new preview up on PP's main website. http://www.privateerpress.com Right hand column.
