d20srd seems to have changed hands.

I just noticed this as it seemed to me the background suddenly switched to a lighter color. (Am I imagining things?)

Apparently it is now owned by some company.

Not sure what this might mean, but there it is...

Hopefully it'll ensure the site stays up for a good, long time; it's a wonderful resource… but one, from what I can recall, was done solely non-profit by one guy (using the initial .rtf resources gifted by Wizards?). Not a whole lot of money there to pay the server costs, eh?

I don't see the "Download the Site" option anymore. :smalleek:

Likes like was bouight by Bell of Lost Souls, a group that focuses on advertising to the table top wargame market. Doesn't seem like like such a bad deal. I'm sure they'll just throw some ads up in a banner for their clients since d20srd.com gets a ton of traffic.

The background looks darker and duller to me.

[KillianHawkeye]

Huh, weird.

Well, as long as it continues to exist for many years to come, I don't suppose it matters much who owns it...............

Eeeeeyup, banners have been popping up on a number of their pages for me the last day or two.

Aha, yeah, now that I had a reason to view the site on my phone during my last game session, I can see that there are a bunch of advertisements on it now. Oh well, could've been worse.

Yea, I noticed that too on my phone.
Sadly on mobile devices they still take up space, even if they don't show.

There goes that site... sigh...
