Here's an example:<br /><br /><a href="http://dndwithpornstars.blogspot.com/2011/10/crane-demons-castle.html" rel="nofollow">Crane Demon's Castle</a><br /><br />I'm fairly interested in information architecture and how we can put more easy-to-digest information right in the hands of the DM (without requiring exorbitant detail mastery) - this is definitely a step in that direction.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18031181424520125213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4353391426294254427.post-7978125822092907052011-10-15T10:25:59.775-04:002011-10-15T10:25:59.775-04:00You've crystallised something in my mind with ...You've crystallised something in my mind with this - not ever content creator is an artist, but I would love to see well-done visual explanations of things, mainly in the form of maps. A well-done map can give so much at a glance, both of technical information like location, direction and distance, and also atmospheric and environmental stuff.

Combined with the ideas you've brought up in this article, I'd be in heaven.Jason Jutahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07109751465009519029noreply@blogger.com
