Agreed. Also, I might make myself out to be a bum by saying it, but for those who are Mentors on roll20, do they provide some tech support? Just wondering.

Not really, not as far as I can tell. I'm a Mentor, for a few days yet, and I don't have much in the way of powers.

Looks like Solo and Gold's efforts finally paid off. BFRPG Sheet for Roll20 is finally active

They gave me three months of Mentor credit. So, please, try out the sheet and let me know if it needs anything I can reasonably do; the sooner the better, please. Changing the page is way hard if you're not a Mentor (you can't test properly otherwise) and I'm not planning to pay for more when that runs out.

Well, there isn't a space for XP on the sheet. Other than that it looks great.

Hah! I just logged on to post about the XP, but -1warrior beat me to it.
Huge thanks for this Solo. I'm going to start using it with my weekly game. I have a few other more minor comments/suggestions, but I'll collate all the feedback from my group and provide it in a coherent list, rather than posting it piecemeal.

Awesome! Looks like I've got a little recopying to do.
Add-ons:
An Initiative roller?
Adding a box for armor separate from equipment would be nice, but not necessary
Something that would be handy is a place (such as below spells) to add additional skills/abilities. This is lowwww priority, but there are quite a few supplement classes that use them.

So, I introduced the character sheet to my Roll20 game yesterday. Here is some collated feedback ...
1. As mentioned above, boxes for recording XP (current total + target for next level) would be useful.
2. The auto-calculation of the missile attack bonus doesn't include the halfling’s special ability. Perhaps it would be better if the melee and missile attack bonuses could be entered manually so that exceptions such as this could be accommodated.
3. Would it be possible to add a “+” sign to positive ability score and attack bonuses? It just looks strange without them. Similarly to point 2, I think I’d prefer manual entry boxes for these bonuses (rather than the up/down arrows or an auto-calculation) if it means we can include the “+”.
4. Nice-to-have additional boxes would be (this is all stuff which my players record but which is currently being relegated to the generic Notes box):
- Languages.
- Encumbrance (light load limit / heavy load limit / total actual carried).
- Racial special abilities / restrictions.
5. I don’t know if it’s possible, but it would be nice if there was a box where a player could upload a picture of their character.

The automatic stuff is really hard to do; Roll20 doesn't allow me to use Javascript, just their very limited macro substitution language.
The other bits, i.e. space to put stuff into, that I can do. I'll try to get those things looked at soon.
