Can anyone help me with posting this?

Hello everyone!

I have converted some things from the Mass Effect universe into the alternity rules system. I did a simple copy and paste for the Biotics system, but it seems crude.

1) Is there a way to post your work other than copy and pasting word documents.\?

2) What forum or area should I upload these

Basically I am working on it for anyone to use. I have found Alternity to be the best sci fi rules system, and once I started Mass Effect was very easy to convert.

So far I have the Biotics system done including the Adept class (A broad skill within psionics)

and I have some races converted.

Any help on posting these would be much appreciated.

Why not create a pdf or other universal readable format and upload to the site? That way, you can post a link to the forums that may have interest and the material remains formatted.
 

The Other RPG Discussion area would be appropriate.

There are several ways to make the post work out. One is an attachment, as suggested by Nagol.

There are also tags that will preserve formatting for you, but they can be tricky, because forcing a format can be bad if someone's not using a window-size you consider normal. I would advise against it for large amounts of text.

Ultimately, this is a message board, not a typesetter. We aren't set up to strongly format text exactly the way you want it.
 

I realize I should also mention copyright.

It sounds like fan-created material, and you aren't selling it, so the worst trouble we'd probably have is a request to take it down.

However, I'd suggest you make sure what you're posting doesn't contain copyrighted images. You might want to consider changing names to avoid some of that morass as well, and so on.

Uggghhh. Yeah I am certainly not selling it, but the stats do all contain the names of Mass Effect races. I am not sure how that would violate any copyright laws though. Really since it is just a post of races statted to an out of print rules system.

In any case I will be careful.
