The last couple of days I've been working on a photoshop template for screencards. Meaning: cards you can hang over the master screen to show the line of initiative between your players and their enemies.
they are spaced in a way to comfortable hang 4 of the mon each side of the official Dungeon Master Screen. No overlapping ^^
I would like to share my templates with you, so that you can create such screencards yourself.
Here are two more examples of fresh screencards for my games. I have placeholder enemies so that I don't have to print a new one, should a specific enemy appear. Also each player character gets his own screencard. I've used images from the google search for every character and enemy and I would like to thank each and every artist out that for those creations! I hope I don't run into any copyright troubles ^^
In Photoshop simply open the template. There are white rectangles which I use with the desired images as a clipping mask. Thus each image has the exact same size. Players and other good folks get white text, while evildoers get red one, so you can distinguish them easily - furthermore I've used a black/white filter for all my enemies while playercards get to keep their color. On the top of the image the text is upside down, this is because you fold that part so it faces you, the dungeon master while the image faces the players. I've also added to boxes for AC and PP you can add with pencil so that you as a master don't have to ask your players again and again ;) Last but not least I print the cards onto 160g A4 paper. It is much more durable than 80g paper and doesn't bend on its own after some time.
I hope I've said everything and left nothing out. If there are anymore questions don't hesitate to reply.
And considering the images: again, big THANKS to all the great artists out there that let our favourite game come to life!

This is great. Thank you very much for sharing with the community. I have zero Photoshop skills and I was able to make this work.
Thanks again for your work!
These are very nicely laid out. Love it!
Hey folks!
Thx for the kind words! I'm glad you like them ^^
