[QUOTE="Daztur, post: 6153929, member: 55680"] What's been up on my end is that the word doc had gotten big enough to constantly freeze and crash very often. I tried some different word processing programs and while other ones tend to be better than word the document (especially all the art) just eats up too much RAM for my comp to be able to edit the document well. I could just break up the document into a bit of small ones but that'd kill my ability to provide hyperlinks in the document (which I really want). So after getting frustrated and giving up for a while, what I decided to do was start uploading the whole document bit by bit into a wiki. I've gotten 90 different pages uploaded so far here: [URL]http://shrouded-lands.wikia.com/wiki/The_Shrouded_Lands_Wiki[/URL] What I'd planned to do is then enter all of the hyperlinks between different documents in properly and then cut off the wordier bits into separate pages and then organize things into various topical pages dedicated to discrete NPCs, religions, races etc. etc. so we don't have weird artifacts like having most information about a major religion be sub-hexes of an obscure inn and stuff like that. Basically have the same sort of organization as in Sanglorian's Gore page. Then I noted the CC license. It's a lot more restrictive than the one we've been operating under (no commercial use whatsoever). I don't care much about that either way (have no plans to ever do anything commercial with this) but I don't want to yank the rug under other people's feet by suddenly porting everything over to a different license as that'd be bad. So I really want to port things over to a wiki rather than using Word doc or PDF as my comp just doesn't have enough RAM to do anything with the full word doc any more. But I'm open to either working with wikia or another wiki hosting site. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
