This is a collection of 1,622 RPG motivational posters from the three threads about them on
www.rpg.net.
The original thread was closed because the massive amount of visitors
(Something like 16 million on the first thread and countless more in the others.)
caused the server to pause each time someone browsed the thread.
This collection hopefully will offer some help to those who missed major parts of the first few threads,
as well as offering the chance to get the whole collection for download.
I am quite certain that I did not get all of the posters, but this should be a major chunk.
Also, I am sorry if a few non-related posters managed to make their way into the collection,
but there is really not much I can do about it.
This collection does not include:
Harsh language, all swearwords and vulgar comments have been edited out of the final cut.
The altogether too many sets of posters referencing random obscure anime shows/characters/near-hentai junk with lame captions like
"Hero" and a stereotypical quote from somewhere else in the thread.
NSFW-style or near NSFW-style posters such as the often re-occurring "**** Anything" poster from the second thread.*
[*This includes the massive amounts of posters about breast size increasing damage,
there were probably enough of those in the thread to make a entirely new thread/collection by themselves,
and probably did somewhere in the depths of the Internet. (4Chan no doubt.)]
The posters I collected have been edited for language and similar, but I still would probably not recommend
letting children view it without going through it at least once to see if you find the pictures too graphic
for your tastes. Some of the posters included have a few somewhat graphic images, such as the explosive skill poster
with the beheaded fellow and his pool of blood, or the two "female stormtrooper pinup" posters,
but who you share this with is completely up to you.
Some points of interest include the "growth of the tunnel poster" poster, which is a animated .gif,
the set of posters from the Evil Overlord Tips Lists, (
http://www.eviloverlord.com/)
and the 37 or so "tunnel-poster" posters chock full and overflowing with self-referential humor.
Is is possible to set this collection as your screensaver on windows, by selecting "My Pictures Slideshow"
and changing the location to look for images inside this folder.
All the posters are named with the relevant main tag or two, so searching for "multiclassing" inside
the folder should give you a number of the most relevant posters.
A preview of some of the poster subjects:
Garry Gygax, Shadowrun, Disguise Checks, Evil Overlord Tips, Bards, Necromancers,
The Schools Of Magic, Conan The Librarian, Cohen The Barbarian, Rincewind, Deckers,
Mr. T, Chuck Norris, Hit Points, Player Archetypes, Character Archetypes, Dm Archetypes,

Thanks and credits go to the subjects and creators of all the posters, gaming systems,
and everything else referenced in this collection, I just organized it.
Special Thanks goes to RPG.net, for hosting the threads, Aaron Williams, who originally linked me to them,
the poster creators, for sharing the inspiration, flickr, for streamlining the process,
and the many free image hosting websites for allowing us to make this possible.
Thanks for the fun!
