Introducing the Hit Point Tracker
over 4 years ago

I've received a couple requests for a card that is a little more generic. One that tracks Hit Points and maybe something that can be used for multiple classes. This is a kind of tough order because many classes have actions that don't fit well with a tracker card. That said, I thought that a hit point tracking card might be useful and if there are just a few extra slots on it to hold dice that can track other things (so long as you remember what is being tracked), then it could be used for things like Barbarian Rage or Monk Ki, etc.
So, I'm putting this up for feedback. Take a look and give me your comments.

I've taken a few pictures of the new tracker templates and thought I'd share. I'll add these to the main page as well.
This isn't all the different artwork, but it is most of them.
New Artwork posted; Working in an oven

A day later than I was planning on, but the new artwork is now posted on the page. In case you missed the last update, Wizards of the Coast contacted me and requested that I not use their class symbols from previous editions. I got drawings of those replaced over the weekend and posted those on the main page today. The old symbols WILL NOT be available. I hope you understand. Wizards owns the copyright on those and they don't want me to use them, so when the DM makes a ruling, good characters who don't want smited follow that rule.
I other news....The gods have evidently put Southern Ohio into the oven and have forgotten to take us out. I think they are going for the slow-burn on us where we emerge nice and crispy. While I spent several weeks working on my workshop, putting up insulation board and adding a power-fan/vent to the roof, it was still in the mid-upper 90s in there by the end of the day. I told the Dryad today that we'd be starting work earlier in the morning for the next week or two so we can knock off early. Saturday is looking good where we are *only* expected to hit 90.
For those who live in Arizona, ya...I know....you got like 110 degrees plus the biggest outbreak in the country to deal with and I should count my blessings. But we got humidity here. It's like breathing in boiling water. (I have this argument every year with my sister who lives in Phoenix.)
I want 200 backers! Go share this project! (please)

Well, I guess this shouldn't come as too much of a surprise, but I was contacted by Wizards yesterday with a request that I not use the class symbols from previous editions in my project. I had thought that their class images were ones that they opened to the public several years ago, but I guess I was wrong. Their message was very polite and encouraging, so I'm taking it as tacit approval of the project, just not the artwork. (I like looking on the bright side of things).
So, this weekend, I'm having the art redone on several of the cards. I hope to have new art posted by Monday.
We continue to get a few new backers every day; I don't think we've had a day without at least a couple new backers yet. Would love to get over 200 backers. My personal best on KS is 221 backers and would love to beat that number.
Keep spreading the word! Share, share, share!
Is there any interest in AD&D cards?

So, I was working on a card for AD&D and I came up with a couple versions. Here they are:
Then someone brought up that in AD&D, you don't have spell slots, you have to memorize specific spells, which kinda defeats the purpose. So...is this something anyone would be interested in? I've only done this for Magic User and don't really want to do other classes if there isn't any demand.
