[QUOTE="HellHound, post: 3799723, member: 3397"] The DCC screen is a double screen. That is to say it is like the old AD&D1e screen - two different screens, each 4 panels.

[/list] [/list] [/list] All this material is done in a nice readable size of Arial so it is easy to read and use from 18 inches to 2 feet away - the legibility is awesome and blows every other 3.5 screen I've seen out of the water. The player side is cover art from the various DCC modules and is pretty good. The layout is portrait, so the screens are each just under 11 inches tall and 30 inches wide.
