    Art for DM's Guild publications

    This is now a thing, too: The Public Domain Image Archive! You can browse by category, plus they also have an "infinite view" mode where you can just scroll through random images forever-ish.

    Art for DM's Guild publications

    Absolutely, all of this! I'm an artist (with a background in commercial art and illustration) and my wife is an artist (with a background in fine art), and even I have been guilty of not thinking it through and asking an artist friend if they could just whip something up real quick for me for...

    What are your TTRPG Goals for 2025?

    In the far-flung future world of 2025, I want to: - find or start a new ftf rpg group. I'll be moving (to NY state), and one or more members of my current group might be moving, too. For me it's about my wife being closer to the biggest art market in the world, but ofr others in my group it's...

    Moving to central NY, looking for group

    Looks like I'll be moving to the New Berlin, NY area some time in the next couple of months. That's roughly halfway between Uitica and Sydney or Oneanta. I'm 60 years old, but I usually get mistaken for 10 years younger, and almost everyone I game with is younger. I've been playing rpgs since...

    BIND has me intrigued for their approach alone.

    Who’s fault is it when movies with money seem low budget?

    The approach/attitude you describe here is the real culprit, I think. You can have an army of talented, experienced people, but if the folks in charge don't know what they want then you get a mess. Relatedly, if the folks in charge don't agree on what they want or don't communicate what they...

    AD&D 1E Seriously contemplating an attempt at a retro AD&D

    I'm going to assume you're trying to say that there are 1E clones that do 1E better than 1E (although that would be subjective), and not that there are 1E clones that do 1E better than the OP's version would.

    Playing in Person Is Just Better (for me)

    When the pandemic hit I was just about to start running a game for our group. I decided to run it virtually, and HATED it. After a couple months I have up. Then someone else in the group ran something virtually, and they managed the interface better. But after months and months of that, when we...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Although some of the features in newer cars are super-handy, I really miss being able to reach over without looking and just press a button or turn a knob. Now I have to navigate a menu while driving. Who thought this was a good idea? In what way is this an improvement? I have ADD - this is...

    DC Heroes Role-Playing Game Gets New Reprint from Cryptozoic

    Did you play much superhero stuff back then after you discovered D&D. I just find peoples' paths through gaming genres interesting. I weirdly played very little of the original Marvel rpg - we went from Villians & Vigilantes and then pretty much straight to DC Heroes. To be more precise, me and...

    DC Heroes Role-Playing Game Gets New Reprint from Cryptozoic

    I have a real fondness for this game, having played an awful lot of it back in its heyday. I remain a massive fan of its 3x3 grid of stats, where each column and row created a secondary stat. Brilliant.

    I regret not getting the original core books and the DDG in print, so I'll not make that mistake this time!

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    The rancid cherry on top of my slice of $#!+ cake today is that my foul, foul supervisor has been promoted to manager. He refers to women as "females". It's a day for at best thoughtless white men, I guess.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Our customers regularly include us in group email discussions amongst their team about an upcoming print order with us, just as a "friendly heads-up". NO. Stop doing this. Send us the request when you have your $#!+ together. Yeesh.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    If Douglas Adams gave us gated reverb*, the universe is indeed a very odd place. Knowing that the universe is indeed a very odd place, I am content with this newly-discovered fact. * the distinctive sound of drums in '80s popular music, natch.
