Where are these found?
All the supplement downloads they've posted can be found here.

Any word from the powers that be when the online supplements will be posted? I use a projector to run the game (which works great!) so those PDFs are essential for me. I will be finishing up with the Lightless Depths this weekend so if they won't be posted soon I'll have to start scanning maps.
If the decision has been made to skip posting them at all that would be good to know as well so we can stop asking for them. Of course we'd rather have them posted but I am sure you knew that already :)

One of the guys in my group does the same thing when he DMs. I think he uses Adobe Photoshop.

I use a program called Battlegrounds on my laptop to display the battlemap during the game using my home theatre projector. Its as simple as copying the map from the PDF and pasting it into an appropriate picture program (I use Irfanview) and then saving it into the correct folder in Battlegrounds.
During the game I run a session of Battlegrounds (which is intended to use for gaming online) which another player logs into and I send him the maps. His laptop is hooked up to my projector which displays his screen. I could run it with just my laptop but then the players would see my screen. This isnt a huge deal if the players should see the entire map but if they aren't supposed to (due to lighting, etc) then I can't use all of the cool fog of war features of the Battlegrounds program.
If you spend a few minutes for each map (which can be up to a 200' x 200' area) prior to the game session you'll be set. I have the ability to pull up a map in about 10 seconds that looks EXACTLY like the maps in the magazine. When I ran the Lotus Dragon hideout the entire map fit in the 200' square area, we just had to scroll the map along as the party moved.
It saves us alot of time since I dont spend time drawing maps instead of playing the game. If you have the ability to do this I highly recommend it!

Is that the final cover?
I like it. Always liked the picture/book make up of setting books.
It might be the layout and shape of the cover... but the art isn't final. That castle image is from Pathfinder #4.
We almost never have the final covers in time for the book's announcement, since we have to announce it to the book trade so early.

<.< >.> O.o
Was that another prophetic post, or did the forum software goof up :)
Looks like that was actually a cross post; I was answering a question about the cover to the Guide to Darkmoon Vale.
As for online supplements, though... no news. They're still in limbo on the layout side, alas.

Ronin, does your laptop only support a second display via mirroring the built-in LCD? The reason I ask is because most laptops have the option of running an independent screen as an extended desktop. That allows you to see the DM view on your laptop's LCD screen, and the Player view (with Fog of War) on a second display (e.g., a projector or HDTV).
So you might want to check to see if your laptop has a function key combo for changing the display mode from mirroring mode to extended desktop mode.
Of course, there's also an advantage to the way you're currently running it (with a networked laptop), in that your own laptop only has to do half the work processing the Fog of War reveals.
