Modules and adventures

I have been gaming for a long time and I don't really use d&d rule sets anymore but instead have a system of my own. I don't think its ready for public play yet but I write adventures based on my world I created and was think of putting the out there for people to play, need to play test some. Would anyone be interested in using ? Free. Or where would be the best place to do this ? Thanks.

If you want to have them on the roll20 marketplace, read the  sticky thread for this forum and follow it's instructions. I would love to see more system agnostic modules and adventures as I have to convert many modules for other systems to my chosen system before I can run them.

Working within the scope of the Community Forums , you might create a Looking for Group post to recruit players and/or GMs to play a specific game using your system. If organizing a game does not appeal to you, you could make a post on another, more-suitable website: /r/rpg /r/dnd /r/LFG /r/gamemasters As Pat mentioned, only approved Marketplace Creators may share game materials within the Marketplace forum.
Thank for the help. I don't know if my content is "professional" yet. I may have to look at other sites.

Chris, you can make a Game in Roll20, and put your game system content, house rules, and your world there. This is free, you can make copies of the game within your account, and you can invite unlimited participants / playtesters.  Add your content in the game, whether it is maps, pictures, text handouts, dice roll mechanics implemented as macro buttons, or a custom character sheet.   If it is a text-based character sheet, use the Bio Tab of Characters in a free-user game. If you later decide to upgrade to a more complex form-fillable Character Sheet that can actually make calculations and chat-reports based upon numerical Attributes, then a Roll20 subscription is useful to help create, implement and use your sheet code. Use the Roll20 Looking For Group forum and the  LFG listings to invite people to play and playtest it with you (like in Silvyre's post).  For purposes of the LFG listings, list your game offering in the "Other Games" category since it is not an established game system title in the search engine yet. Many people are running homebrew non-D&D games and modified rules on here. This is a great site for running a homemade game system because Roll20 is built to be 'system agnostic' and not dependent on a particular ruleset. Pat's suggestion of using the Marketplace and making Modules for Roll20 is what you would undertake if you want to publish and sell the content to the general public.
I have (good bad or ugly) start a game looking for players. How so no go about putting the content in have ready to go where interested people can look at what I have. I have been hand writing this thing for over a year now and all my maps are hand drawn. I'm not as good an artist as some I have seen here. Or would the best way be to email content to interested players later. Just wondering. 
Right now I have no plans to charge for this game. Its really I just want to share my fun.

Just wondering.&nbsp; You could scan or photograph your hand-drawn maps, and upload the images into your Roll20 account art library. Wiki, <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Image_Best_Practices_for_R" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Image_Best_Practices_for_R</a>... Then place the map images on Pages in your game. Or even make a large background page and place multiple images on a page. Drag the Player's Ribbon to a Page to present that content to anyone who joins and logs in your game. Wiki, <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Page_Toolbar#Switching_Bet" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Page_Toolbar#Switching_Bet</a>... For some of your written/text content, it could be presented as Handouts in Roll20. Or you could use the Text drawing-tool and write the rules text on a Page. &nbsp; Wiki, <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal#Handout_Dialog" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal#Handout_Dialog</a> Another idea is to use your game's Forum to post the written rules. &nbsp;Note: Your game can have 2 forums, one in the LFG and one private game forum only for people who have Joined. &nbsp;If you want to present the rules to potential players viewing your LFG listing, the best place might be to write a Sticky post in your game's LFG Forum. <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Game_Management#Forum" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Game_Management#Forum</a>
Ok that's cool. I am converting everything to a digital format so I can share what o have but it is taking a while. I have wrote about 15 note books and drawn about 40 maps so far. But its a labor of love that I want to share. Know what I mean.
