Rather than gratuitous bumping, perhaps we could actually have a conversation?
What would you like to see in a new world setting?
I for one would like to see a departure from the norm, less of an earth taste. It is my feelings that earth cultures have been done to death.
Although I never got to play much, I always thought Athas was a really cool departure from the norm.
An ice planet perhaps? Or a discworld planet. Or something new? How hard WOULD it be to do something truly original that isn't fantasy fiction derivative?

If you like the Ice Planet idea, check out these novels by J.V.Jones:
Caverns of Black Ice
Fortress of Grey Ice
Jones is an INCREDIBLY engaging writer, and both of those novels focus on an arctic north setting. Read Caverns first, since Fortress is the 2nd book (I'm guessing that it will be a trilogy).
As for campaign settings, I'd prefer to stay with a fantasy setting. But, I'd like to see something darker...and with less "high magic".
