November & December Annual

Vorkosigan

I was wondering what will be included in the November and December Annuals? Is it already decided or almost decided?
Maybe by chance we could have more symbols for the wonderful Herwin's Overland Map (April 2012)?

Previews aren't up yet, but take a peek on the info page.

yes! now all i need is some info on when the Perspectives update will be rolled out and i'll be happy for the rest of the year!

Vorkosigan

Yeah!!!!
Regarding the November Annual, any possibility for us to propose some new possible symbols? Like dwarven citadel, elven city... ?

I really that would be great to put editions of the annual that expanded already done styles. We have some really nice styles that has very few symbols to work with. Some we can support with pngs from the internet, but others are very unique and dont go well with anything that you can find (as Jon Roberts Style and that one from April).

I have thought about how this could proliferate:

If the profantasy.com-website were to have a marketplace where artists could sell style packs, symbol catalogs, complete maps in fcw etc (likely with a profit share to ProFantasy) it would be possible for users of popular annuals to e.g. make a kickstarter to get extra symbols for a popular style and then afterwards, the artist could continue to gain a profit from his/her work, new users could get them as well and ProFantasy would also make a dime on it - everybody would be happy

Of course, ideas are cheap. There is work to be done in order to create the market place (although some of it can be scrounged from the current web shop) and even more important - there as to be clear lines of responsibility between ProFantasy and the people selling their stuff on the marketplace. That is a lot of legal work.

So, I don't expect to see this, but now I've said it...

Best regards

I second Ryan's idea... would be really wonderful.
