If you figure it out, let me know haha! I've been trying for months.

Bahahaha! (wakkaWakkaWakkaWakka) OK, A character given a Magical Shield +350, it is absolutely invulnerable, and the BBEG has a similar shield. There is a floating Sphere of Annihilation and the only safe way to touch it is this shield. You a…

Yeah when it happened to me I pulled it back almost immediately. I dunno how long it stays there, or if it will if you open anything else.

You know, I have done that in Firefox, then clicked on history, open recently closed tabs, and everything I typed was still in the parser!

in How to request a feature May 2010

I want there to be a way to make the campaign forums open to ALL Obsidian Portal members. That'd be cool.

Absolutely welcome!

in Share the best elements of your campaign May 2010

I think that this, as is any type of collaborations or cooperation between gamers, is certainly noble and worthwhile. That being said, I dunno what I can contribute. Much of the game world I use is prepublished, or variations thereof. However I f…

Agreed on Fogdown, I'm taking notes from it as well.

in First Campaign as a DM not a PC May 2010

Most of my planning comes in the form of generalizations. I have a box and binder full of little 'plot hooks' that allow me to adjust on the fly and provide options for my players, but I detail nothing to the extent that it can be horribly broken i…

He DOES have a Monster Mythology book in there, which I think I paid $8 for my copy, but I would have paid more for it.

in Linking to Characters May 2010

Not sure what you're asking -- You want to just use the character's image as the link? Try this: "!(media-item-align-left){width:###px;border 1px solid white}PICTURELINK(CHARACTERNAME)!":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/YOURCAMPAIGN/chara…

Let's go ahead and add: Eight, you posted the same exact post already here (This forum moves slow, you can expect a day or two for multiple responses) Nine, you seem to have made an OP profile just to sell your books. New profile within the last h…

in Hello to all the AD&D 2nd Edition fans as well as RPG fans!!! May 2010

A couple of problems here... One, I don't think this forum is intended for selling things, but I'm not a moderator or 'official' in any way so don't quote me on that, still it seems in bad taste. Two, you aren't selling RPGs, you're selling BOOK…

in Can't Get Character or Wiki Page linking to work from Dropdown May 2010

I don't know HTML, I've just been getting help from the other members here. Everyone is really nice and helpful. Just remember the brackets, it's super easy! [[PAGE]] If you want a more uniform look, use the "PAGENAME":http://PAGELINK functi…

in Thought I would try OP out for campaign management May 2010

I actually just touch on the basics on my Log. The general gist of the events, but if my players ask for more details I may begin adding more.

in Can't Get Character or Wiki Page linking to work from Dropdown May 2010

Well, I dunno how much it 'defeats' the purpose... but it's not as convenient. Most wiki's do not have such a drop down feature so I honestly didn't miss it much when I started here. It works well enough though. I actually make manual 'external' …

I'll let the whole page go live next week, they should have found their way in by then.

in The RPG Formula May 2010

jemmasmum and gaaran, I agree, I try to give the player as much freedom as possible. Especially in plot. If your plot relies too heavily on the players taking one specific course of action, or a DMPC telling them what to do next, I don't feel you've…

I found one that's even closer (though missing the airships and trains still) "Pretty":http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/ad347/intothebreach_album/PA04.jpg but I'm still waiting on permission from the artist. I haven't heard anything, and if …

I have a few of those but 2 IS ALMOST PERFECT! If there is a chance that anything I can do will be of service to you, you let me know! I must have put 15 hours into google searching. I was just in the middle of trying to Gimp a solution as…

I guess a good way to describe the perfect image would be the London from Tim Burton's Sweeny Todd, with lots of piping and fittings, with trains and tiny airships. Inside of a colossal mountain.

Actually am using one image from DeviantArt already, and the artist asked me just to link back to his page through the image, so no biggie. However, I have not found anything that meets my particular criteria there for the underground steampunk cit…

in How do I add images to my Gallery? May 2010

And be mindful of your upload limits. It's really low if you aren't an ascendant member, though you can upload whatever to photobucket and use the "!(media)" tags to display it. It gets clunky after a while but it works. Most of my wiki is done in …
