I was gonna ask questions about it before I buy, but looking at that price, I think I'll just go ahead and pick it up for the heck of it. I can't imagine feeling it's gonna be a waste of a dollar :)
For 99 cents it is really hard to beat, so don't worry. I am sure you will find it worth it.
Can someone tell me more about the miniatures counters included? How many, are they the appropriate sizes, and most importantly, where does the art come from?
Thanks

Well, the mini counters are for 1 inch & 2 inch. The 1 inch have 49 to a page and the 2 inch have 9 to a page. The artwork is from our Image Portfolio series.

Do you mean 2 inch by 2 inch for Large-sized creatures (3.5) or 2 inch by 1 inch...(3.0)? Just curious. I'm going to get this anyway, as the price can't be beat, but I'm a counter (Fiery Dragon) fanatic.

1 inch by 1 inch and 2 inch by 2 inch. Sorry I wasn't clearer about that.
Sold. Thanks.
Is it fillable?

So I stand by my review, I hope you aren't too upset that if it was more expensive I'd give it a lower star rating. Considering that I'm already doing a second printing of the status cards on sticky labels so I can cut and paste them onto Item cards I don't need, I'm terrifically satisfied with what I've gotten for a dollar.
One wierd thing though, when I downloaded it, it opened it as a webpage so I wasn't able to save and back up the file, that's the first time that has happened with paizo downloads, is that intentional or did I somehow rejigger my downloads?
I don't know if it's possible to change it now, I was hoping to make a sugestion. A way you could have set your page apart from the base paizo page that would have been really useful to players is if you had a box for misc. modifiers to CMD as well as CMB, I've already had a player who had a temporary deflection modifier to his AC (which should also apply to CMB not realize it till after the fact because he didn't have it added to his char sheet (in the pages we have now you have to change your special size modifier each time a spell alters your CMD and thats actually more of a hassle then just having an extra box to use) Also you could have given us one or two extra skill lines that were left blank for players who wanted to create their own skills or who had more crafts or performs than were in the lines provided.
Instead I'll be honest I'm not really seeing anything that makes me want to use your page 1 instead of paizos page one char sheet.
Oh and on page 2 you have feats listed twice instead of a section for feats and class features.
Is it fillable?Is it safe?
Is that a joke? I'm asking a product question.

@ Louis,
I'm not complaining that it's not fillable. I'd be surprised if it was. Currently I'm GMing online, and I was just wondering. The various Exel sheet folks are all working hard to upgrade to the new rules, but they've not had a lot of time yet.. plus there's a learning curve in trying to figure a new one out.
I've got a game this Monday evening, I was just asking to see if maybe they could use your sheet, fill it out, and just e-mail it to me. No fancy macros, but functional.
But hey.. thanks for answering my question!

My daughter had a couple dollars left on a gift card and purchased this for herself (her first Paizo purchase). She's very satisfied with it.
Personally I like that the main pages don't have tons of black boxes on them. Overall a very clean and easy to read premade character sheet. Well worth a dollar.

I agree that's why I gave it 5 stars in my review, but the fact is that the first two pages are pretty much the exact same as the PRPG character sheet I can already print off from my PDF, If it's not changed I'm fine with it, but I made some suggestions to make the sheet even more usable and differentiated from Paizo's.
you haven't seen the clerks animated series have you, yes it's a joke. it was just a throwaway line I didn't expect it to be taken seriously in any way nor did I think you would even be thrown off by it.Is that a joke?Is it fillable?Is it safe?
OH!
I loved the live action movie, never caught the animated series.
Anyway, my apologies. I guess I had my guard up; and I'm not good with messageboards at the best of times. Yesterday I asked a straightforward, and friendly question on another boards yesteday and got threadcrapped for my trouble. I think it made me triggerhappy.

a few minor nitpicks on the condition cards. Okay so if the purpose of a condition card is to have the condition neatly summed up on the card so that you don't have to flip through the book to refrence rules during game play, then the energy drained card is a waste of time and printer ink. It says you get one or more negative levels, but then says refrence pg 562 to see what negative levels do. Wouldn't it have been easier to have the effects of a negative level written either on it's own card or on the energy drained card I realize you gave us blanks so we can make our own, but since they aren't fillable they'll have to be in my handwriting and not the nice neat print look the rest of the cards have.
And once again, these are all minor things that don't make me think that the purchase was wrong. It's still a great purchase, merely making suggestions if you are capable of editing the sheet, then I could redownload it as a nice new sheet with all the minor tweaks. I'll understand though if that can't be done though and still say this is worth the price you pay for it.

That's an issue on our end. I've fixed it. (You should have been able to use the Save function in your browser once the page was loaded.)
The "Miniatures Art" takes up the last dozen or so pages. It's roughly six characters with two pages each, one page of a bunch of 25mm scale circular counters, all of the same character, and then a second page with larger counters.
The artwork is mediocre at best, so if you're buying this for the miniatures, it's not worth the $.99. This could be a much smaller file without them and lose almost nothing.
That being said, the character sheet itself is OK, nothing special, but the real value here is the condition cards. All the normal conditions (prone, unconcious, etc.) already spelled out for you on trading card sized pieces.
thats worth the $.99.
Otherwise, nothing special. Not bad, just nothing else special.
