A couple of recommendations: GURPS players, check out what's at The GURPS Diner. The house special is GULLIVER, an easy rules expansion for creating and playing odd-sized creatures. To see the lunch, dinner, wine, and kids' menus all at once, peek at the site map. Take your time; the busboy will be along shortly to clear you a place.

Would you buy Games Diner content – updated, fortified, spiffed-up – as SJ Games e23 download products?

I would consider it. The one thing I would buy, no question, is your SF conversion... though I imagine it would be a little difficult to publish for sale.

Right, I figure that there'd no point in trying to make a paid product out of something that's already been offered for free. It's something to consider for new content, or content that can be updated and improved a lot. 

Thanks for commenting!

I meant was the copyright issues. I'd buy it in a nicely formatted PDF any day, content being currently free or not.

Ah, got it. You're right, TSR/WoC/Hasbro copyright issues would make it difficult to sell a product like that.

As well you should! Rolling your own builds strong gamers.

Re: Would you buy Games Diner content [as e23 PDFs]

I would buy Games Diner content in printed bound book form. 

I have no use for buying PDFs from e23; if I buy game material, I want the convenience and accessibility of a book.

Gotta love good ol' print. I'll point out that any Games Diner content as an e23 product isn't going to be super-long, so it wouldn't be too much hassle to print out and staple – but, yeah, that's not the same as a professionally-printed book with content on both sides of the page.

Well, as for the prospects of that: I can't print and sell any content related to copyrighted material without the rights owners' permission, so that leaves e23 or any other SJG-sanctioned as the only channel for all the GURPS-related stuff.

For any wholly original stuff in the theoretical pipeline, though, I'll take your vote as a reminder to consider physical publishing options.

Thanks!
