Stop trying to copy the indie publishers. That only gives Wizards a second rate feel.A new D20 line that incorporates brand licenses, like Star Wars. In this case, use their own licenses, even if it's produced outside of Wizards for keeping costs down. It'll be published under Wizards. Brands like Transformers and GI Joe. TF alone you have a few book ideas: TF Core (rules for players and DM), 1984 (G1), one for those new TF series I don't watch.Going the indie PDF route was dumb. Real 2nd rate feel. They should offer people to build your own book.Decided when a newly published book has sold all it's going to sell initally (let's say its first 6 months). Divide all the published books up by its parts. Offer each part for a price. If a person wants a book of Classes, they buy the PHB classes, the Complete series classes, and any other ones offered. Combine it all into one. Design their own cover, using a vareity of photos to use. Publish it as a PDF they can download, or as a book (pick binding) or as just paper to put into a binder. Imagine, one book with all the spells up to that point. Maybe even offer smaller publishering companies' material too? Ones that use Wizards licenses, like Dragonlance and Ravenloft.License more out. If Wizards doesn't want to design one of its licenses, then offer it to someone else. I might not buy or care to see a published 3e Planescape or Al Qadim. But some sure do. Offer it.As far as books go. I'd like to see alternative classes, races, magic systems. Not new ones exactly. Just new ways (and rules if need be) to use current ones. Elves based on the Faerie or Germanic mythology, instead of Tolkien ones. Wizard class that doesn't use the Vancian system. Maybe its similar to the SW/Psi one. Or like how Monte reorganized his? Etc etc, I could give examples all day..If they could get the license to Middle-earth, that could be interesting.A version of D&D that isn't written with miniatures in mind with the rules, and abilities!!</blockquote>
