DM Screens Feedback and Artwork

Umm it's a bit offtopicky, but how do we know what projects are next i queue?
Do you post immediate needs & desires in this part of the forum when they are needed or are the most important projects those which get most people interested at one time.

Umm, I've never participated in group projects over the web as you can see.

I was worried about claiming of art before, because I have some ideas about one other project...

But back on topic.

I had an Idea about the picture for DM's Screen.
It would be our favourite Lady's image floating in ethereal looking space(unknown pocket in space where Lady resides) and there is a huge carcass floating near by(suggesting it to be Aoskar).
I'll use a vague sketch my friend(Squaff) has done long time ago and bring it to life with my imroving Photoshop skill.

Not to rain on your parade, but Aoskar's corpse is supposed to be floating in the Astral (or at least it was last time I checked), and the Lady isn't really known to leave Sigil much. Not that this has stop you.

Looking over the DM Screen, I have only one small question: Under the effects on magic on the elemental planes (right below the nifty graphic of those planes) I noticed that Earth states that Water spells have DC 15+ spell level. Shouldn't that be Air to maintain the elemental antithesis balance?

I own a few DM Screens, but I have never used them.

I will use these. At the very least, I will print them out and have them on hand during my current Planescape game for reference. Great job.

However, I would suggest changing the text in the "Standard Creature Immunities" section to reflect actual resistances, not "In 3.5 reduce all resistances from 20 to 10." I mean, you've gone to all the trouble of hosting two different screens--one for 3.0 and one for 3.5. Why not alter the 3.5 screen to only reflect 3.5 info (and vice versa)?

These look really useful. This is something I didn't know I needed until I saw it and now I don't want to DM without.

I noticed a couple of errors.

1) Under the traits for Earth, "Water" needs to be changed to "Air."

2) It looks like you intended to put alternate gate towns in in but stopped. Did you forget to list them, or did you forget to remove mention of them?

Other than that, looks good to me.
Good work.

Checked out the 3.5 wide. Looks good; I like the art and the flowcharts are handy. Some minor proofreading of things people haven't mentioned yet:

It's spelled "Ethereal Dependent."
The italics below it presumably say "These spells do not function or only partially function on the Ethereal Plane"; the words "Ethereal Plane" are cut off.

Spelling: "Coterminous."

For both the above also see 4th ring, Outlands Spire Effects.

I myself have never cared much for character art on my DM screens; my favorite has always been the original screen from the Planescape campaign setting box. The lady of Pain front and center says it all. Unfortunately my old screen is falling apart at the seams so it's high time I put together some new artwork, print it out and assemble a replacement. Here are a few variations to look over.

The first is the traditional green patina and corroded metal.
The second is a blood colored version with three maze designs in the BG.
The third has a large stylized arc in the BG representing the city of Sigil.
The forth is a montage of an angel's wing, a compas rose, a heart and the world tree worked into the BG.

Please let me know which is your favorite and why. If there's interest in one, I could make it available for download.

The gold color would come out nicely if there were brown and/or red tones in the gold, but not too much orangy parts.
I have printed a lot of maps for Dark Sun, so I had to edit the map color if it was to bew printed out right.

Those look great!

Here's an idea for a fifth. How about one that looks like parchment that has a charcoal sketched diagram showing the arrangement of the planes? Perhaps add the look of watercolor to some of the "planes" to give it a bit of color.

In an attempt to redeem my balik version in Clueless' eyes, here's one rendered with an antique gold finish. It's difficult to make the Lady of Pain work with a lighter coloured background since the shadows on her face are so stark. Anyhoo, what are your thoughts?

Ooh... I like that idea. Bonus points if the soupy bit is photoshopped from actualy soup.
