Is it possible for me to create a custom bestiary module and if so what kind of difficulty level is a project like this? Just to give you an idea of my computer savy, I know that when I click on the little thingy on my desktop that looks like the world it connects me to the internet.
Thanks, Mac

For which ruleset?

Pathfinder. 3rd party stuff and some homemade baddies.

Well, in that case it should be really easy!
Create your creatures/baddies/NPCs as Paizo statblocks.
Use the creature parser.

Yes I know how to do that and use it a lot already. Can I compile all of it into one volume that I could include in all my games with out having a giant list in my library? Like the way the Paizo ones are set up.

Yep, just put all of the statblocks into one big text file and parse that.

Is there any particular format? Like spaces between the stat blocks or something. Thanks for taking the time to help out Trenloe. FG is at least a million times better because of you.

Just a single blank line between each statblock.

No problem, glad I could help. Nice of you to say so... :o

I second that thought. Trenloe has been a great help both on the forums and via his community coding/data contributions.
That just reminded me to add him as a Sage on the forums, which adds the Immortal tag to his rank. Now to figure out how to add a space. ;)

Would adding &20 to the Immortal tag work?
My 2 cents: I haven't been in the FG community long, but well over 50% of the help and resources I've received has come from Trenloe. We should have a Trenloe Is Awesome Day.

Just tried it with no luck. If it was simply just adding an HTML space, it would already be done; but it is something specific to the new vBulletin I need to figure out at some point.
