Dynamic Character Sheets

I am interested in making one for my "Star Trek":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/star-trek-late-night campaign.

Is there a simple guide on how to do so?

Or better yet, if I give someone a Word Doc of the sheet could they make it for me?

    Oh... a question I'd love to have answered. What happens when the artwork linked in a dynamic sheet you did NOT create (but are using) suddenly vanishes from the source?

    The Dresden Files record sheets I was using are now nothing more than CSS... with no artwork. Kinda a bummer.

    .... I think I figured some of it out. Does this DST show up for anybody else? (the data is mostly blank as of the time I'm making this post).

    "Clunky 'gold' DST First Draft":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/uncanny/characters/professor-x

    If you don't see a bunch of black and gold and white boxes... let me know. :) I think I have to go through the submitting process next.

    Well I've submitted the bugger to the OP staff for approval. "Here's what it looked like when I was developing it.":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/uncanny/wikis/icon-dst-v2

    You'll just have to use your imagination and add character specific stuff :)

    Yeah, I'd advise you to seek a better font.

    Just saw this one and I thought I'd jump in with a bit of a query:

    I've never created a DST before, or looked into doing so - I'm not a coder by nature. I bodge things together. Do you think it'd take much work to turn the following into a "proper" DST? I've mocked it up using HTML, so it's a bit crude and unpolished, but I'd like to think it holds together as a sheet at least.

    Example:
    http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/housecorinthyen/wikis/character-sheet-preview
    Code:
    http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/housecorinthyen/wikis/character-sheet

    There's a bit that needs spiffing up, I know, but I just wanted to get a feel if the community actually would *want* a Song of Ice and Fire DST or if it's not necessary at all.
