[QUOTE="Ralts Bloodthorne, post: 2772458, member: 6390"] Ummm, not exactly. Now, you have to purchase a certian package, that's the $40, and believe me, for new publishers, that package you get is more than worth it. The PDF guide is excellent, as is the d20 Publishers guide. I own both of them, and I paid more than $40 for them. I have a slight contention to that. The $99 pays for the publishers using the bandwidth, as well as built in advertising, hosting, and many other things. Feel free to peruse how much your very own e-shop will cost you. Including paypal and credit card acceptance. Find a printer who is willing to do print on demand with you for the cost that RPGNow offers. Seriously, man, you act like everyone involved is deliberately trying to keep people out, setting stuff up as a barrier. I'll tell you what, I'll put my money where my mouth is. Any of you want to get published, and think you've got the skills, email a sample of your work, show me what you've got, and I'll publish it. When your sales get to $40, you can transfer it over to RPGNow, or $99 for ENWShop, and you can start your own business. Barriers? Not hardly. Sure, $40 can be tough to come up with, hell, I don't have $40 right now, but it isn't intended as a barrier, and I think you'd be surprised by the people who are willing to help out someone just starting. I got in. Anyone can. We can take this section to the Publishing forum if you want. The restriction is: "We won't host it. You can have it here, but the download must come from your own source." That's it. What about ENWorld? I have a collection of CD's, DVD's, and paperbacks. I can scan/rip them, and nobody really cares as long as I don't distribute. It would depend on the exact wording, and honestly, my various publishers. The publishing section of my tiny little company is only for pet projects that nobody wants to pick up. [/QUOTE]
