in Dynamic Character Sheet Template Approvals February 2012

You'll need to submit your changes before I can approve them. :p

in Site Character sheets January 2012

What system are you playing in? You might consider contacting the author of the dynamic sheet you use and asking for new options or improvements. If you're programming inclined, you might also consider using the API to create an exporter which can t…

in Site Character sheets January 2012

Not really. The only files you can upload to the site are images, so you'd have to host it somewhere else and put a link on your character or wiki page.

in Editing a Dynamic Sheet... What am I missing? January 2012 edited January 2012

Not sure what the problem may be, but a few basics, because it _should_ be working for you I think: - Are you leaving the page by some means other than clicking the save button? - Are you running a script blocking feature of some kind which st…

Updated DST is up, approved, and ready for linky goodness whenever the app is.

in I've made a dnd4e character importer November 2011

I know it's like three months overdue, but I've just implemented the link support I talked about back in August, and the updated sheets have been submitted for approval. Feats, abilities, and items now each have a corresponding link field (so, if th…

in Form Fillable HTML Table Code Generator November 2011

I'll add this to the FAQ as soon as I can (apparently the main FAQ post has reached its character limit for the moment...). Thanks for sharing that!

in Adventure Log 'Read More' breaks? October 2011

It should work under either textile mode. The thing to watch out for in this case is that the forums have converted the two dashes (-) before and after the work more in the above example into a single m-dash. It's trying to help, I'm sure, but it's …

in dnd4e files to dynamic character sheets? October 2011

Another user created an importer for them. There's a forum post about it "here":http://forums.obsidianportal.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=2089&page=1#Item_4. Eventually I'll even get around to updating the sheet to support more of the details h…

in Help with website September 2011

There are buttons in your editor view for making things bold, and inserting images. Check out all the options there for a start. You should also check out the "FAQ thread":http://forums.obsidianportal.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=1114&page=1…

His site is on there actually. Second link in the templates section. I added it a month or so back I think.

Good additions. Should have thought of that myself. :)

in Youtube Videos August 2011

Hmm... yeah. And weird. I might have been able to help with the sizing issue, but there's nothing I can do about the videos not showing up in the first place. At a guess, some change to Obsidian Portal's parser has broken the automatic functionality…

Well that was easy. Someone must have fixed whatever the glitch was behind the scenes. The real question now is, what am I going to do with this pointy hat and false beard...

in Offline HTML / CSS Editors August 2011

If you're working entirely with HTML, you can use any text editor (I'm a big fan of "Notepad++":http://notepad-plus-plus.org/), and your favorite web browser to preview it. If you want to use Textile though, I'm not sure there's a really good option…

in Youtube Videos August 2011

Sorry it took me so long to drop in, I was out of town and out of touch. I haven't used embedded video at all, but I'll take a look at this tonight when I get home from work and see if I can't figure something out.

in Featured Campaign of the Month August 2011

Yup. It's past time for it to be up there, and I say this as the guy who's campaign is still there from last month. At first I figured it was just delayed by a couple weeks - they didn't get Sins up until the middle of the month last month - but it'…

in I've made a dnd4e character importer August 2011 edited August 2011

Actually, that should be pretty easy to add to the sheet. I'm out of town at Pax this weekend, but I'll look into adding it this week or next. Most likely it will take the form of a second field associated with each list entry which contains the add…

in I've made a dnd4e character importer August 2011 edited August 2011

Great work! What kind of data do you want to include that the existing sheet doesn't support? It may be simpler for me to add it to the existing DSTs than to create a new one.
ChainsawXIV
in GAH! Textile! August 2011

Actually, that and all other inline CSS works fine. If like me you're more comfortable with good old fashioned HTML than with Textile, you'll find that most common HTML tags are at your disposal. As a note though, be careful when copying from the…

in Textile help needed July 2011

It sounds like what you want is an "image map":http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_map.asp, which I don't think is supported by textile. You can set one up using a little HTML however, and it should work just fine for you. You might even try this nift…

Did you get the image map thing sorted out, or need some more help?

in Editing a Dynamic Sheet... What am I missing? July 2011

There's a javaScript issue which is killing the scripts on DST edit pages it looks like. I've added the details to the bug report you posted.

in trade rangers animal companion for feats? July 2011

I believe the alternate class builds you're talking about were in PHB2, if memory serves. Don't have it on hand to check right now.
ChainsawXIV
in Removing Wiki Page Titles July 2011

He's using HTML magic there, and technically the normal header still exists. He's just positioning his custom header so it covers up the standard one. As far as I know, there's not a walk-through that anyone has put up on how to do it.

Nope. Sorry. :(

in ADDED - Character Print View July 2011 edited July 2011

As you'll note, this discussion is from 2007. That was long before the dynamic sheet system was implemented, and that system doesn't offer printing support unfortunately. Unfortunately, I don't know of a good workaround for that at the moment. :(

in Dynamic Character Sheets July 2011

The list functionality used in "my sheets":http://www.obsidianportal.com/dynamic_sheet_templates/2 does something along the lines of what you're talking about actually. Technically, it just keeps looking for numbered entries until there aren't any m…
