I'm starting with Edgar Rice Burroughs' Barsoom- extracting the work Silverback and crew did on the boards.

A copy of the OGL is up on True20 Wiki. You can access the OGL at the bottom of each page or directly here: OGL
That is great work.
I suggest we go with option 1, but now I understand what you meant by putting the copyright notice on each page. That's actually a good idea too. But for now, it's better to simply add the title of the book to the copyright notice at the end of the list, i.e. the OGL page (alphabetically, of course).
Should I add 1) both the title of the Book and then the copyright notice at the end of the list, or 2) the copyright notice only?
i.e.
1)
Book of Pong
Pong adventurer's manual
Book of Ping
Ping player's guide
Ping bestiary
or
2)
Pong adventurer's manual
Ping player's guide
Ping bestiary
It's done.

It's probably easier to add each book/pdf at the end of the OGL, instead of each page. We'll consider the entire wiki a single "source", then update the OGL when we add new material. I've already added all books from the True20 FAQ.
Ok, I will wait for your modifications.
Where should I add the other sources found in the copyright notice?
At the end of the licence in the OGL or at the end of the page?
Hi,
Sure, I don't see why not. But we must add the OGL to the True20 Wiki. I'll remove the Creative Commons License and link it to an OGL instead. Just tell me what books I should add or you could just create the page yourself with a copy of the license.
Personally, I'd have each monster on a separate page, but it's your call since you're going to upload them.
I am working on the conversion of the Curse of the Crimson Throne Adventure Path by Paizo to True20. In the process, I am converting OGL monsters from Paizo and other sources other than the SRD, such as The tome of horrors revised.
Could a section of the Wiki devoted to the task of collecting OGL monsters, maybe under the Narrator Resources? Do we need an explicit page with a copy of the OGL?
Besides, would it be better to have one page for each monster or one page for each letter?
I think that some of the work made by others could be "borrowed", with permission of course.
Hello Jeffrey,
Pity I cannot help much here, since I have focused exclusively on Fantasy of the Medieval or Ancient variety. ;-)
True20 is great in that unlike DnD/d20, it allows easy cross-overs from ancient fantasy worlds to modern settings.
Still, I await eagerly for you new content here. Cheers!
I'm thinking about putting together a Pulp Genre Toolkit of sorts for True20 here. I think most of it will come from converting the d20 Modern pulp stuff from Polyhedron #149 and #161 and d20 Past. What other resources do you think would be useful in this project?
Hello guys,
I was kind of busy with real life so have not contributed much here. :-(
As for the images, I resize before uploading. The most popular size seems to be about 250x256 pixels.
A lot of great work has been done in my absence. Congratulations. :-)
I was supposed to respond to this post earlier, guess I forgot about it ^_^
A page for links? I'm not sure I understand. Isn't the Player and Narrator Resources just that?
Under the site site tools button at the bottom of the page, there's a "wanted pages" and "orphaned pages". These two pages allows user to see which pages are not created, how many pages need certain page (Example: The Green Ronin Publishing page is linked to 5 times).
It's better to resize images and upload them to Wikidot rather than directly resizing the image from an external source.
I've uploaded a resized image to the Slave Queen of the Ruined City page.
HELP!
I don't know how to resize images. Please help me fix Slave Queen Of The Ruined City. Thank you.
Yes, you got it. For fan made PDFs, I really don't see a problem using the books and pdf template for unpublished work as well: it usually has an author, a cover (sometimes) etc.
I'll add those to the Homebrew and Local Campaigns template, and let the user decide which headers he wants to keep (by using removing those he or she doesn't want)
I would add to the template list also:
Coming to think of it, all of these templates together should go in the Homebrew and Local Campaigns template, so the work has to be made only once.
So, basically, books should be mini reviews of official books, campaign setting should point to all books and pdf discussing the campaign settings, including adventures, gazetteers, bestiaries, and so on?
While Campaign should be mainly unpublished material?
In which category would you put fan made PDF books ?
Sure. I'll play around with that when I have time, since there's a lot of boring renaming involved.
Nice! I took the liberty of linking directly to her deviantart page instead, and added a copyright notice.

Hello
My name is Jeffry and I came across your Nausicaa picture (which I think is fantastic). I was wondering if you'd allow me to use your Nausicaa pic on a website I'm working on. The site is for a role-playing game system where someone wrote a version for the Nausicaa world. I'd love to use your pic for the page if that would be ok with you. I'd like to give you credit and all that.
Here's a link to the Nausicaa RPG page.

Please let me know if you're ok with this.
Thank you.

Thank you! I think it turned out pretty good. Here check it out, now…
The nature of this site is focusing on campaigns so far. Its turning out better than I imagined it would. I'm so excited about how this is going.
Whilst playing with google and how this site is showing up there, so far, I had an idea for a page for just links. This might encourage people to join to promote their sites.
However, it also invites content of lesser quality and/or dead links.
What do you guys think about this?
