[QUOTE="SiderisAnon, post: 5058657, member: 44949"] Morrus: You seem to be asking for feedback, so I'm going to throw in my 2 cents. I've designed a number of treasure and item type cards for my game over the past few years, so I've gotten some practice in. In general, I think this is a good idea. I like your initial concept. 1) Could you change the format to baseball card size? This creates a 3x3 grid of cards on each page with small margins. These cards then fit well into card sleeves for storage. (This is the size used for Monster Cards and Spell Cards I've seen in other PDF products as well.) 2) The level of the treasure parcel should be printed on the card, even if it's just a small number in the corner. Makes it easier for the DM to put them away after. 3) While the background looks nice on the screen, it will suck ink like a sponge. Maybe a version with plain or simple backgrounds to ease printing? I do spot a drawback with #1 in that you'd have 35 card slots in 4 pages of the product, but only 30 levels each month. Not sure what to do about that. (Though some of the extra space could be filled with legal info or with level-0 cards of random junk in their pockets.) You asked in another post if this would make one subscribe. If subscribing included the monthly updates to this product, and I were playing 4th Ed currently, this would make me want to renew my subscription again. Right now, I'm playing another game, so my answer would be "not until I'm running 4th Ed". [/QUOTE]
