Everything you just wrote spins things in the most negative manner possible for WOTC, sometimes in contradictory manner.  You justify Paizo outsourcing their artwork to a Chinese company and then bash WOTC for outsourcing to U.S. companies, and claim it's OK to bash WOTC because they also do layoffs - as if hiring people and laying them off is worse than never hiring people to begin with and always sending the work to China.Sorry Zard, I am not buying it.  WOTC hasn't done anything to justify treating them harsher than Paizo on this topic.  Both companies have always "outsourced".  WOTC is arguably doing it LESS right now given how deeply connected their in-house staff is to the current work being done even if another company is involved, while Paizo was issuing press releases about sending work to China.  And yet the later never, ever got a single negative comment over it.  That sure looks like a double standard to me. Can you imagine the backlash against WOTC if they had issued a press release about how great it is for them to be sending artwork for the core books (and that's what it was about - Pathfinder core books) to a Chinese outsourcing company?</blockquote>
