I'm going see if I can fit my introduction thread in here too.
M'kay, so until recently I've played D&D very sporadically for lack of consistent players. I almost always GM, so that's a pretty serious problem for a campaign. Most of them die when everyone goes home after a session.
Recently, though, I got together with some friends who I met online. One of them was pretty interested in campaigning, the other was less enthusiastic, but then played it and enjoyed it bunches. So we're like, "There's got to be some incredible genius in some mad laboratory who made a way to do this online."
And then we found fantasy grounds. The big price tag scared us at first (I think one of them tried to find a crack) but eventually we all gave in and bought. My friends got lite licenses, and I got a full license.
To the point, though! My biggest problem is I can't draw for shizz. A perfect circle is beyond me, if I can even so much as draw a straight line. It's fairly easy to find cool-looking stuff for tokens and portraits and such, but good stuff for maps is a little harder.
I've looked around and found alot of random dungeon generators, which aren't much to my liking. Call me spoiled, but I really like the classy maps I can get on tabletop, and if all I can get is a bunch of my nasty drawings, that's gonna be really disappointing.
But to get those, what I need is a way to copy a picture onto the dungeon as the dungeon itself. It'd be awesome if someone could find me that.
