I think I just had a nerdgasm. A GM screen that is actually within my budget. Paizo never ceases to amaze.Umm...the 4E one is $10, and quite good.
Just sayin'.
But it has 4e on it, so it cannot be good :P.
Plus, Paizo can't do the $10 thing for the screen, they already did that with the hardcover PDF - which explains why wizards had that price range open for the screen ;-)

Nah, what we Chelaxians want is more *DEVILS* on that screen... what is this? A bunch of "iconic" do-gooders, and none of them (to my knowledge) hail from Cheliax! If they added some Devils, Hellknights, our beloved and revered Majestrix and finally the glorious Chelish flag into the background, this screen would be perfect! ;P
Maybe a few kneeling supplicants from Andoran and Taldor?
Or a Cleric of Sarenrae, finally seing her error and converting to Asmodeus' Church?

However, Lem is not very fond of his homeland.
Fondness is overrated. Awe and Fear is what stays with you forever.
Every time somebody mentions Cheliax, the poor tyke is muttering "the horror....the horror !" and his eyes open wide with terror.
Ah, someone trained him well!
It is heartwarming to see this reaction in expats even years after they left Cheliax.

Why, those are EXCELLENT ideas, Tharen! And don't we all want some *realistic* scenes pictured on that screen? ;)
It's amusing to watch these fleshlings who think such great things of themselves, but in reality they are nothing but pathetic slaves of devils. They are so puny, compared to my masters of old who built by the might of their rune magic a big sevenfold empire!

So, where did I put this blasted key?

So ... how many of your slaves have such a chip build into their brains? Hm?

But we don't have slaves... we only have loyal, obedient servants, who don't have any chips inserted into their brains. They serve, because they acknowledge the majesty and greatness and superiority that is Cheliax, blessed by the almighty Asmodeus!

Feh, amatures. A true believer of discipline wouldn't need such items, so much better to use the Way and sheer Charisma to make the fools want to serve you.
I was checking out my subscription and saw this item was going to be shipped priority mail (my preference is set to standard). I'm all for getting product faster, but I start to have issues paying $10 for shipping on a $15 item. Is there a reason that it's shipping priority versus standard?
Someone else asked about this in the Customer Service forum. The thread is called 'Massive DM screen'. But this is what Alison said in response.
With our current dimension estimates, the GM Screen can't ship via the typical Standard Postal Delivery - its size and weight combine to make it ineligible to use that shipping method. So the only USPS shipping option for this product is USPS Priority Mail, which is more expensive. However, the dimensions we have in our system are only an estimate, and we won't know 100% whether or not we can ship them until we get the final dimensions. So that shipping price may change (but it may not).However, our current goal is to release the GM Screen and the Bestiary at the same time, so they should be shipping together.

When you choose USPS domestic shipping, there are generally three services that our packages can qualify for.
First Class has a cutoff of 13 ounces, and since the screen weighs about a pound plus the weight of the box, it can't go First Class.
Books (and packages that contain mostly books, by weight) qualify for discounted rates as Bound Printed Matter, but since the screen doesn't actually have a binding, it doesn't qualify for BPM rates (unless it's in a box with other stuff that's mostly books).
Otherwise, it has to go Priority Mail. We do try to get you the best Priority Rate possible, comparing Flat Rate and weight-based options for your particular package, and offering the cheapest to you.
(Of course, if you choose 2-day or overnight, we do that instead, but it's not something we'd choose for you.)
Books (and packages that contain mostly books, by weight) qualify for discounted rates as Bound Printed Matter, but since the screen doesn't actually have a binding, it doesn't qualify for BPM rates (unless it's in a box with other stuff that's mostly books).
By the way, there's a pretty good chance that the GM Screen and the Bestiary will be shipped together—we should find out in a week or two—in which case shipments containing both will be mostly Bound Printed Matter by weight, so they'll qualify for Standard Mail after all.

As of yesterday the Bestiary was sent to the printers. What is the GM Game Screen's status?
I love it. Could you guys PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE release an image in a resolution suitable to be used as a desktop wallpaper?... if only.
I made one at 1920x1200 nearly identical to this. Waiting to hear back from someone official if I can share it around w/ peoples. All the images have come from the Paizo Blog.

Boo-urns. Personal use only. :(
For what it's worth, all(most?) of the images on this screen can be found in the blog, and with a lil' bit of magic wanding in photoshop, it's quite easy to make.

I saw the final proof on Erik's desk yesterday, so it's not far behind. (And it's a much smaller job for the printer.) At this time, we have no reason to expect that they won't arrive together.
