    The Le Games: Apology to the Gaming Community

    SpiralBound, I think that is a great idea. I just want to take a look at the logistics - can we come up with an idea that would prevent faking a review? The weakness is in the software and if we could come up with a great solution for RPGnow, maybe they would alter the way reviews are done. It...

    [Fat Dragon Games] The ULTIMATE GMs Screen

    I stopped by the Fat Dragon Games booth at GenCon indy this year. They had a ton of stuff out on display - all cardstock created printouts. They can really make that stuff look awesome. For some of the material they were glueing it to foam boards to give it increased thickness and strength. I...

    Boy, Does It Ever Suck Not Getting Paid!

    John, a marvelous performance, and I'm not being sarcastic. I only just found this thread and I wasn't planning on reading it all but I did. I was shocked and disapointed by and with the Publisher when you named them. I admit I was terribly curious. I've seen this "deadline to release...

    The Le Games: Apology to the Gaming Community

    Publishers, actual publishers, bad mouthing another industry professional. Apologies, acceptances but also rejections. Readers being directly insulting. False accusations of sexism. Profanity. This certainly has brought out the best in us. Those above have certainly EARNED the right to...

    Transparency issues when printing.

    I've had transparency problems when going from PC to MAC and I use Indesign CS3. The gradients were ruined. Flattening the image did fix the problem. Mark Charke

    project for school: Impact of E-books on Publishing

    E-Publishing really has allowed any man and his dog to publish a book. Quality has serriously suffered for that, but it has opened a lot of doors. Mark Charke

    Thinking about going into the PDF market

    I've been doing this for a good chunk of years. I've done the books I've wanted to do. I've made, what I consider to be, a lot of mistakes. I certainly haven't made much money. The most money I have made is from tax write offs (computer, paper, half my hobby stuff, all my roleplaying books and...

    [Charke Publishing] Chronomancer: Time Travel For Everyone

    http://www.charke.ca/Chronomancer/PsychodeliFullPage.jpg Each chapter in Chronomancer: Time Travel for Everyone represents a different era in history, starting with the distant future and working it's way back to the dawn of time - the big bang. The chapter on prestige classes happens to fall...

    [The Le Games] Embracing LPJ's OGL 3.5 System Compatible Logo!

    Yes, I was just plugging Broken. I'm working on a couple of Broken products right now. I had just read the 4th liscense and had realized I need to remove the d20 logos and replace them with something. With The Le's adoption of the LJP logo, my problem is over. Mark Charke

    WereDragon Magazine seeks Freelancers

    I was working with Codename Phoenix, the new version of Knowledge Arcana. I've been a little out of touch with them lately because of a summer job out in the bush in northern British Columbia. My internet connection has been unreliable. Mark Charke

    WereDragon Magazine seeks Freelancers

    Love the title. I'll have to come knocking (the clock is screaming at me or I'd be doing that right now.) Tappa, tappa, tappa and found the website and ahah, some familiar names. And I can edit stat blocks. I started doing my characters for games in stat blocks because they were easier to...

    Relatively new, looking for opportunties

    Just some tidbits. Build a website and include some writing samples. Don't start your letters with "my name is" because only the new writers do that. It's a minor thing but a number of new writers have appeared here and on rpgnet lately. Answer some of the open calls around here and on...

    Goodman Games Open Call

    Bah, Aristotle, apply now. You sound like you're afraid to submit your ideas. Just accept that they aren't the best ideas and send them in anyway. If you accept that, then you are leaving room for improvement and you have nothing to be afraid of. I'd be scared if I tried to send in a perfect...

    Goodman Games Open Call

    I always use the thread title in reply emails. Goodman Games is good to work for. They published my first book and several since. They pay well and promptly and they are good at replying to emails. Naturally they're swamped right now but if you get hired expect better communication after the...

    Need volunteers (esp. artists, mapmakers) for 4e campaign setting

    Looks like a good start. Who are your staff who have been "professionally published in the industry?" I'm not trying to challenge your claim. I'm currious to see who you've got! I've jumped on board with a few projects based on staff. (If you don't want to post it publically, feel free to drop...
