The New York, New York, box set has been scanned (Shadow Viper) and is currently undergoing OCR production (Silverback) for release to the community. This will obviously take a little time but will be worth it in the end!
Another PDF project brought to you by Shadow Viper and Silverback!

I have Webs, but no time. (See Lands of Dr. Doom thread.)

I've got the Lands of Doom and Webs too. Webs is a waste of time to scan, it was a real pathetic effort from TSR. The Character Stat book was the only useful thing and it really had no new character except like the White Rabbit. I mean, who cares about the White Rabbit. Beyond that, it was just a rehash product.
If there was a focus, I would like to see the Doom box set OCR scanned.

Eventually, I plan to get both the Lands of Dr. Doom & Webs scanned, but it may take awhile...
I've got the books, maps, etc in mint condition- but I only have access to a scanner when I'm visiting in the US (I live in Europe). I know Gerrod has a scanner & lives across town, but I also know he's a really busy family man, so we've never been able to make the connection.
Patience, patience- it'll all come around sooner or later.
& oh yeah btw... I'd scan Webs just for completion's sake, and the map can be pretty useful too (even if it doesn't fit with any of the other TSR maps...).
And since this is all a labor of love... :D
Dohiyi,

Man could I use this right now for something I'm writing. Bit of fanfiction.
Should be fun.
There an ETA on this?

Is New York, New York still useful when you already have the Deluxe City Campaign Set?

The Map that went along with this IS scanned as well, but it's probably going to take a bit of work to get it to a more reasonable size. The raw scans themselves (high-quality, 300dpi) amount to over 70MB, ZIPPED. That's a tad large, especially considering that they aren't even pieced together... No worries though folks, it'll get done sooner or later ;)
For what it's worth, the encounter wheel which was also part of this accessory is already online, and has been for quite some time (even though some folks who dl'd it & reposted it to other sites & groups- without giving credit to Silverback for his Amazing work on the graphics design, I might add- had no freakin' clue what it was even used for...). If you're wondering, it's the wheel which resembles Cap's shield.
We'll keep ya updated on the map & such.
Have a good one,

For some reason his e-mail bounced the file straight back to me!

This file was sent to Auntie P via an alternate e-mail address (thanks to ThatArtGuy) a few days ago. As it's not bounced back i'm assuming that the file is nos safely in his hands, or in his inbox at least.

Have you checked your gmail lately, Aunt P.?
I know I sent him a 150dpi scan of the basic set map a month or two ago (not my scan). He's been revamping the download page (or something to that effect) so it hasn't shown up yet either.

We're waiting for Auntie P to upload it. I'm assuming that he's either not picked up his mail yet or real life is fetting in the way.
