    I'm way behind: drow ability score vaguary

    Ahhhh. Should have guessed. Is there a forehead-smacking smiley on this board? Guess the embarrassed one will have to do. :o Edit: forgot to say: thanks!

    I'm way behind: drow ability score vaguary

    I hate to ask this, since a) it's probably been asked a million times and just dropped off the face of the forum by now and b) everyone's probably sick of drow... The 3.5 MM tells me that drow have ability score adjustments to Int and Cha, a seeming change from the adjustments to Dex, Con, Int...

    Installing an Old Scanner - HELP?!

    http://www.visioneer.com/support/flatbed/6000downloads.asp Says that the drivers support NT. XP is built on NT, so those might work. They'll be "unsigned" and you'll get a warning when installing most likely, but tell it to install anyway. EDIT: From their site:

    Aid my quest for a forum

    http://invisionfree.com/ Banner ads (to be expected on a free board) but no popups or popunders.

    Acrobat Reader speedup

    Maybe this was posted and I missed it. Dunno. This util does something fairly simple. Disables a ton of plugins that acrobat loads at startup that most people won't need. Gives you a list so that, should you want to customize the plugin list, you can...

    External harddrives?

    I'm seeing better prices from vendors at www.pricewatch.com with shipping included than those ebay vendors (where shipping doesn't seem to be included). Just looking at the usb 2.0 ones with 80 gigs at 7200 rpm's... Check this one out. The pricewatch entry says: So either the shipping is...

    Looking for software that can do this...

    If anything can do it, it's Partition Magic. 70 bucks according to the official website, but you can find it cheaper if you google for it. http://www.powerquest.com/partitionmagic/

    Thoughts On Twin Rose's Campaign Suite

    They have a demo for download. Five clicks in it crashed for me. Maybe you'll have better luck.

    Windows cannot find this file?!

    Sounds like your security level is limited. Is your login profile an administrator? If not, try making it one. Go to the control panel and look under User Accounts. It's pretty self-explanatory from there.

    SRD Competition Winners

    Just want to say that I've been using the sovelior & sage html SRD with my online game, and it's worked perfectly. Any rule I don't have memorized only takes a few seconds to find. Arguments are settled instantly by just linking to the appropriate section. Nicely done (and it's working in...

    Publishers needed to host Dungeon Dudes

    I don't know why I bother, since I'm just going to be called a troll for pointing out the obvious...not to mention the fact that this will probably offend Jeff, who is obviously a talented programmer and marketing guy to get this many people behind him... Why are you getting excited and...

    Website Suggestions

    As far as content goes, dunno what to suggest other than good homebrew stuff, but as far as your board goes, I see you're running phpbb2. Back when I ran that software, there was a really good dice hack for it. I guess somebody's been updating it...

    [OT] Need a hand with my site

    I wonder if the blog server has the correct mime type set for wmv files. That could explain the text interpretation.

    PDF Industry - How do we help it grow?

    Just want to mention that I agree with Clark's earlier comments here (somehow missed pages 4 and 5 [edit]) here. I just started running a game online. It's not picnic to fit books on the desk by the computer, so I do my preparation in my text prog, use the online srd (for lack of a pdf one I...

    [OT] Need a hand with my site

    Hmmm. So it's not supposed to be doing this then? Mozilla 1.5b on XP. (second time I loaded it, it came out fine)

    Where can I buy a placemat (washable grid-map thingy)?

    They're usually called battlemats or something similar I think. Crystal Caste has combat mats (2 sided hex/grid). www.crystalcaste.com I've been thinking of seeing what Kinko's charges to print and laminate one given the high price of the things.

    SRD Competition Submission Thread

    Hmm, you're right, my old phoenix .6 is working with it, but mozilla 1.5b from Aug. 27th shows it smooshed to the right. I'll update my moz to a new nightly and see if it's a one-off bug or if their renderer has become more "strict."

    SRD Competition Submission Thread

    At the risk of being called a terrible disrespectful troll, I agree that this took too long. That looks really cool, but it's messed in Mozilla/Phoenix/Netscape 6+. Might have something to do with this line edit: looks like html is parsed. Couldn't post the code. Look for a td nested in a...

    How to get reviews or at least noticed.

    Maybe, but if you're not careful, it can backfire. E.N. Publishing teamed with a company early on. I found so many typographical and grammatical errors on the first page of one of their demo products that I had to make sure I wasn't buying anything from that group's authors when I bought...
