Is there currently a way to replace one image with another by mouse-overs?
Like, you got an icon where if you hover your mouse over it, the icon changes to another picture.

Much appreciated,

I'm wondering if anyone can direct me to a resource for running D&D (AD&D) in a Play by Post format. I've assembled my test group but I'm hoping there are some sites or documents out there that can help me with the logistics of running D&D online without having to set up a bunch of 3rd party software.

I'm looking to run a game with a more old-school feel, so there will be low- or no-mapping and little in the way of graphics tools. Given the crowd that's signed up I expect there to be more than a bit of power-gaming and hack and slash, so I'll need ways to keep that interesting, too.

Thanks in advance!

I know there's a box to add a player secret between the GM and the players on any individual page, but for what I need I'd end up having the wiki page be completely blank and then have ALL the text for the page in this secret box for the players who are allowed to see it.

I suppose I can use this as a solution, but the title of the wiki page will kind of give the secret away to the players that don't need to know about it.]]> https://forum.obsidianportal.com/discussion/1988/adventure-logs Tue, 21 Jun 2011 03:33:17 +0000 DarkMagus 1988@/discussions
So I know we love to discuss ways to make our pages better, so I thought I'd chime in with something to share about adventure logs. Aside from the awesome style formatting and additions of pictures, possibly best exemplified by pages such as this: "The ork hunt, from AoL, by Arsheesh":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/age-of-legends/adventure-log/the-orc-hunt , I thought it was rather brilliant when I came across Dyluth's SW: Dawn of Darkness and he had questions asked at the end. ("example":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/star-wars-dawn-of-darkness/adventure-log/episode-i) That really helped by summarizing and bringing up things to think about or look for in future reads.

Well, just recently I came across Irondog's campaign The Silent Throne and his adventure logs ("example":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/the-silent-throne/adventure-log/caravan-guards) have a little sidebar which provides information on the level and size of the party, the xp awarded and the treasure received. I think this is a pretty original idea, I don't remember coming across it before.

Are there any other neat Adventure log ideas you guys and gals would like to share?]]> https://forum.obsidianportal.com/discussion/2004/printing-maps-from-the-map-tab Mon, 27 Jun 2011 07:50:20 +0000 taxboy4 2004@/discussions

Hm. On further investigation, I see that some campaigns (like "mine":http://obsidianportal.com/campaigns/sydarksun) lack the tagline and system info, and others (like "Dark Ages":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/the-dark-ages) still have it. Does this have something to do with the size of the banner graphic?

Instead, textile sees the -2 and 11- and puts that whole section in strikethrough text.

My question is, what kind of class would a Bullywug have? Options that seem obvious are Druid, and Shaman, due to the dex/wis and con options, but I have one problem with that. Bullywugs are the the red step child of nature, in fact, nature rewards you for even killing them with a free healing surge. So I do not believe that these should work being so close to nature. I also dont want to just go with fighter, as that would not be of any use to the players who already have cleric, rogue/bard, fighter, and swordmage.

Two ideas are Avenger of Avandra, due to her wayside shrines in the wild he could have came upon it and wishes to change the worlds view on his hated people and blighted lineage in hopes the intelligent Bullywugs can be accepted and not persecuted like their barbaric counterparts. An Invoker would work the same.

Another is a swamp like ranger, utilizing blowguns instead of bows and spears. This is slightly self explanatory.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.]]> https://forum.obsidianportal.com/discussion/1905/using-a-resource-wiki-page-across-multiple-campaigns Thu, 28 Apr 2011 16:12:17 +0000 knowman 1905@/discussions
