[QUOTE="Mandos, post: 2932568, member: 21452"] I've used Treepad since more than three years with a great pleasure and efficiency. I can import rtf or other word processing formats, images can be linked to or pasted into. Their hyperlink features are great. I store campaign data, adventure data (text and maps), monster stats, and I also have imported the SRD into it for quick rules search. I am also keeping a separate folder (node in Treepad's lingo) for session notes and this has become an invaluable feature: during every session, I take quick notes in a special table I re-use, and so I can record time of day, encounters, special chars notes, etc. My Middle Earth campaign's 37 sessions are all recorded and allow me to find information very quickly and efficiently: What was this npc's name we encountered two years ago? Where did we find these boots we still have to identify? etc. The tree on the left of Treepad's interface works as intended, and can be fully customized to the extent of changing the icons (great to differenciate a monsters node from a campaign geographical data one). I tried GSNotes too, but importing and text formating didnt make it for me. I also use wikis, but for "on the fly note taking and campaign planning", Treepad seems to be the best choice for me. One note, though: a campaign organizer only seems to work within the limits of your own organisation. If you're basically organized, any tool might make it after a few tests, if you're throwing data anywhere without thinking at it two minutes later, no tool will be able to help you, as you'll certainly end up with a big mess anyway.
