DnDResources

Here's an interesting resource for all of us D&D geeks, DnDResources: Thousands of Gaming Solutions at Your Fingertips.

First off, my complaints. In the work I'm currently in, I see the word "solution" all the time and it annoys me. OK, I know what you mean by that, but there has to be a hundred other more useful words you could have picked. Also, the Web design is kinda awful, especially in terms of color contrast. It also, seems to me, that it's just getting started. My other pet peeve is the use of frames to show items from other Websites. But then that must just be me. Finally, some of the entries are pretty short and seem to more like advertisements than useful information.

As for the good. I really like the idea of offering advice, products and ideas being collected in one spot. And there is some pretty good stuff here. At the bottom there, there's a simple tutorial for making maps in PhotoShop and complete guide to running a campaign in ancient Greece. Very nice stuff.
