Jan 05, 2011 15:59:23 Hi folks. I have been working on a new site called The Homebrew Collection aimed at collecting homebrew content for 4e.

Yes, I know the D&D wiki already does this, but I wanted something more focused on 4e, with standardized presentation for all content, and wanted to create good-looking CSS for powers.

It's complete with tools and CSS classes for creating power, monster, item, anything-you-can-think-of statblocks, class templates. Unfortunately I haven't written the documentation yet.

In fact, all the site is in a quite embrional state, and some sections have not yet been built, but the wiki, the forum, and the blog are functional, and that's what matters.
.
You can find THC here: homebrew4e.wikidot.com

Here is my blog post explaining all about the site: homebrew4e.wikidot.com/news:1

Here is a class I'm working on, an essentialized version of the Sorcerer. homebrew4e.wikidot.com/adept

Hope you'll like it.

Jan 15, 2011 1:23:48 I'll familiarize myself with the site and I'll gladly contribute my Limulian (AKA Horseshoecrabfolks).

You need an 'Item' section too.

Also would powers and alternate class features fit into the 'Classes' header?

Jan 21, 2011 12:03:34 Sorry for not answering you, i have been busy for this week and haven't touched the site.

You are welcome to add your contributions! An item template is ready, I just need to build the category and code (a copy paste from the powers one, shouldn't be difficult).

Powers are automatically put in their own category, but if you want to build a page containing powers for a class it would perfectly fit into "Classes". The same for alternate features.

Don't worry too much about the disposition of the content. If you mess up something, I'll fix it.

Its allright, I've been ridiculously busy this week, had a terribly migraine and almost a nervous breakdown so I can't blame you.
