    Do you mark your books?

    I'm not worried about stealing, as my group is made up completely of close friends, however I do put my name and date of purchase on the inside front cover in permanent marker. I also tend to mark pages (usually page 55), usually with my initails in very small print somewhere around the page...

    "But I'm THIS close to a new level..."

    This is what my DM has done for our current campaign, and (I find I works really well. In our previous campaigns, we would all be itching because we were close to levelling. If we were a bit behind, the DM would allow us to paint our minis, write a background on our characters (or another), or...

    Whats the best you've ever rolled

    I've never had a particularly awesome roll, but my DM is insane with the dice. During one encounter, he rolled nothing but 19s and 20s on eight individual attacks in a row (including when confirming criticals). The attacks were distributed among the party, so luckily no-one was killed, but more...

    What FREE D&D software do you use?

    I'm biased, and thus use my SSA-X2 D&D Character Sheet, which is a detailed interactive PDF character sheet. For spell management, I have recently gotten to like SpellGen.

    Firefox extensions

    PRGoogleBar adds a toolbar similar to the Google Toolbar in IE (as far as I've found, there is no official Google Toolbar for Firefox). It allows you to search Google (and other services such a Dictionary.com) directly from the bar. It also saves a history of your most recent searches. InfoRSS...

    Firefox extensions

    The absolute essentials for me are: - Adblock (use it to block ads from even appeaing on a page) - Download Manager Tweak (Allows more download manager options, as well as opeing the download manager in a sidebar) - PRGoogleBar (Adds a Google Toolbar with far more options than the default...

    D&D Book Acronyms

    Do you have a direct link? There have been "slight problems" with WotC messageboard search engine (read: it isn't functioning) for a while now... at least for me. Thanks for all the help, everyone. I needed this information for my SSA-X2 D&D Character Sheet, as I wanted to make sure I was usin...

    D&D Book Acronyms

    I haven't been able to find anything on the net, so I was wondering if someone can enlighten me as to all the acronyms (short forms) used for WotC D&D books (3rd edition and 3.5e)? Here are the ones I know for sure: BoED = Book of Exhalted Deeds BoVD = Book of Vile Darkness DMG = Dungeon...

    adobe photoshop vs. imageready

    Imageready is designed to make web-friendly images. It gives the user more tools for creating animated gifs, rollovers, and image maps. It's not really a stand-alone application as much as a web-specific addition to Photoshop.

    Looking for an auto character sheet

    No worries. I have no interest in converting my products to a paid model (unless, of course, WoTC wants to recruit me :P ). I enjoy providing my sheet to the community for free, and like the idea of reaching the broadest audience (hence PDF)... though donations are always nice. :P I'm just...

    Looking for an auto character sheet

    Hey RiTz21, I'm curious: how is the shareware model working out for you? Have you had many registrations?

    Recommend a RPG PDA

    One thing to Note: Currently, no PDA-compatible version of Acrobat Reader supports JavaScript, and last I checked, only Acrobat Reader 2.0 for Pocket PC even supports interactive form fields. As such, an interactive PDF character sheet – such as my SSA-X2 D&D Character Sheet – the sheet can be...

    Looking for an auto character sheet

    I don't know. I'm thinking of going and including all the supplements I have in the next revision of the sheet. I'm looking at Ema's D&D Character Sheet, and he's got all the supplements with pretty much the same spell data as me (most everything except detailed descriptions). He's had 193,000...

    Looking for an auto character sheet

    My big question (not that it would matter as to whether I would use it or not), is what's the legality of it? Is it OK to include spell data for non-SRD spells in a free player product if you don't include a full spell description? I like the look of SpellGen and will definitely have to try it...

    Looking for an auto character sheet

    A bit of both actually. Our group had had a few campaigns cut short, and we were tired of always being low level. So we started our characters at 3rd level. My character is a Cloistered Cleric (a non-martial cleric variant from Unearthed Arcana) and Wizard: Abjurer. He's a seeker of knowledge...

    Looking for an auto character sheet

    Actually it's not. I hate to be nit-picky but I can say for a fact from alot of research, that Acrobat Professional (any version including 7) does not allow you to create PDFs that can export or save form data within Reader (any version). I really wish it did! For this you need Adobe's...

    Looking for an auto character sheet

    Unfortunately not. With Acrobat 7, Adobe introduced the ability for users of Reader to add notes and edits to a PDF, but they have yet to allow users of Reader to save or export form data without using their stupidly expensive Adobe Livecycle Reader Extension Server corporate product. My sheet...

    a review of a character sheet

    No, I haven't looked into the legalities of the ReaderSave version. However, I can't see how there'd be a problem as I'm using a legal demo copy of Adobe's own software, but simply choosing to distribute the outputted PDF from Draft mode (thus the big watermark on each page). If Adobe has a...

    a review of a character sheet

    That's not a stupid question at all. The answer is yes, you can import .FDF's from older version of the v2 sheet (it's recommended if the .FDF is from an old 1.x version of the sheet, that you manually re-enter data, as many changes were made to the sheet with v2, not the least of which was the...

    a review of a character sheet

    Just to let everyone know, I have just released v2.51 of my SSA-X2 D&D Character Sheet, which fixes several bugs and issues with the previous release. As of this posting, the EN World download hasn't been reposted with the updated version, but you can find the file on my website at: SSA-X2.com.
