I'm Back

I have been busy lately, but with a new Bluetooth keyboard I can get back into the project. I was looking at the Deinonychus thread on the Forum and that poll is really annoying. I may rewrite the thread or move the posts to a new Deinonychus thread (most likely the latter). I really want to get that creature fleshed out better.

Sadly I was never able to complete the class Dino 101.They used top of the line programs  that my phones can't handle. All the work I did get done is thanks to Joe and Steve letting me use their labtops.

This project really needs experienced GM's and players to get it off the ground. If you have the time and knowledge on the subject please join us and help in your spare time. It would be greatly appreciated.

The Study

It may seem to an observer that this project has been abandoned. I have been watching lectures on dinosaurs via youtube. I also enrolled in Dino 101 some time ago. I really do want this project to work. I am reading The Complete Dinosaur (1st ed.) though I wanted the second edition. The book is over 700 pages, so it will take some time. I also will be reading Dinosaur Paleobiology by Brusatte. I may even muse over How to build a Dinosaur by Horner and Goodman (Jack Horner worked with Jurrasic Park series). So it may be some time before I have any more dinosaurs listed. The more I learn the more conflicting theories there are, and the dumber pop culture sounds.

Dont Mess With Dinosaurs!

Brian at dontmesswithdinosaurs.com said " sounds good. go ahead and use the art so long as you're not selling it in any way." (Copy/Pasted from the email).

This was his response to my last email to him. Email>> "I have every intention of keeping this ad free and $0. May I use your art in a .pdf for example? Keeping the water marks and having a link or your website name, with a list of all the pieces used in the .pdf, is that okay? Just trying to make a bestiary for dinosaurs in the d20 Modern System keeping it Open Game Content. Your art would NOT be considered Open Game Content, but Property Indentity. I would have the "legal burden" to list your art as Property Identity and will gladly do so. In laymens terms anyone could download the .pdf, nobody could use your art within without YOUR permission, only the name and statistics of the creature can be re-used/published aka Open Game Content."

Got mentioned in daily online dino paper!

App News

A new tester Steve Shubeck verified version 2.3 works on his droid too. I fixed some minor label issues and I still need to add a working splash screen image.

The app takes all of D20: Dinosaur's online social media profiles and pages all together, there is no tab for RPG Blog Alliance though. It keeps a cache so you can login easier, and will remain free until the end of days.

App Test = Success

Joe Davis tested the Android app today and it worked on his device as well as mine (mine= ZTE). I will make an iphone app in the future. I still need to work out the kinks on the current version 2.3 like the empty loading screen...

Either way with mobile versions of all the sites on the social media list other than RPG Blog Alliance, we are VERY mobile friendly.
