[QUOTE="weem, post: 4947221, member: 9470"] I am putting down a new setting of mine (online) as I develop it from a cloud of memories and ideas I have had over the years. One of my main problems is deciding how to best present the information. My take has been present light information on the surface and allow readers to dive deeper into the various areas as they go. I love reading about peoples settings, but often times this is long blocks of a ton of text all mashed together, so the act of reading it is a pain even if the ideas and information are awesome - so I want to avoid this. With that said... 1. What do you think is a good method for sharing a Campaign Setting? For example... a wiki with a table of contents, etc. 2. What information about a campaign setting do you want to see first? For example, maybe you like to know the hooks... or maybe the races are the first thing you like to know about 3. Are there any sites online that you think exemplify the best (or at least a good) way to display this kind of information (races, gods, etc)? I'm not trying to sell mine, or expect people to see it and use it - but that doesn't mean I don't want to present it well, you know? This setting will be used by me for all future campaigns (including my new campaign starting next week) and I have a number of people who will be pouring over it even if they aren't playing in it ;) Thanks guys n gals!
