[QUOTE="Mark, post: 4203253, member: 5"] You might want to look into whether or not you have the right to incorporate someone else's work under copyright and then distribute it without their consent. What gets done on a message board in a very limited fair use manner (even that sometimes gets questionable) compared to what is allowed on the scale you propose are two very different things. WotC might be friendly enough in regard to a little fast and loose play with limited amounts of material crossing the fair use/copyright (and trademark) line but a full site devoted to filesharing works that essentially claim copyright on their IP (there is no real way to separate heavily integrated work like that) might be something beyond their liking. Who knows? Maybe they will give people their blessing and there will be sites all over the Internet creating content for 4E and distributing it en masse. They seem to be reining that sort of thing in, though. [/QUOTE]
