Table Tent Link

Hey I'd like to give these out at Origins and Gencon, But I would love to hear some feedback on things people want to see on it.

and I'll put a finished version up when its all done.

For some reason the link is hanging for me while it's loading (Google docs comes up - it's the loading bar in Google docs that seems to be hanging).

However, I think character name, player name, possibly race, and a few passive values the GM may need would be good (passive perception and passive arcana are the two that come to mind).

Josh,

I think it looks ok. If you can flip it so the majority of the writing is readable rather than upside down, that would be appreciated. Adding passive Perception is certainly a help. Flaws too if it wasn't already there.

With a sweep of his hat,

Paul

I second the Flaws idea. There are definitely times when it's handy to know what flaws people have at the table.

I can't tell from looking at the table tent, but is there a place to put a picture of our character if we have one? Other that that good work!

This looks pretty slick, Josh.

The only suggestion I'd say is, if it doesn't already have the capability, allow people to put a picture on it.

Um, I'm not sure how I would go about making it so you can insert a picture onto a Pdf, I'll look into it for after gencon, Sorry folks! I just print things to Pdfs, I've not really monkeyed around with em for a long time.

One option that could work to combine the table tents with images would be to figure out the locations on the paper where an image would fit. You could then set up a Word document or image file that matches the printable page with a frame in which to put the picture in. The player would then print the table tents first and then run the page back through the printer with the other file/program with the image to imprint that on top.

For the fillable pdf, you out an image by creating a button object and then having an "insert image" button. If you look at my table tent example on the Community Thread you can copy/paste that.
