Impressions after playing around with Roll20 for a while.

Okay, so I've spent 30-40 minutes playing around with the tools, and it looks great. Still there's a few things that caught my attention. I tried setting up a map and placed a few tokens on it. When turning on turns, the map was then given a turn along with the tokens I think. I'm not sure I figured out the turn system correctly. Most of the music is louder than other players voices by far. And it's not possible to see if the music found is actual mood setting music, or a techno remix of something. Roll20 could use an easier way to invite people than sending a link. It would be cool to assign tokens to a character so that they could be dragged and dropped from the character sheet when needed. It would also be cool to enable additional tokens for such character sheet, in case of disguises, shapeshifters, etc. I'll post more thoughts as I play around with Roll20. :) Really enjoying it so far!
If you put the maps onto the maps layer, it will by default not be given a turn. In addition, if you open up the token settings (by double-clicking on the token) you can uncheck the "Take a Turn" box if you don't want it to have a turn in the turn tracker. The volume level of each individual song can be adjusted by using the volume slider next to it in the Jukebox tab.

Thank you for the quick reply! Got the map and the tokens to work. As for the link, I should've been more clear, sorry. I had a bit of trouble spotting the link in the chat at first, so what I'd really like was for it to be on the "My campaign" page. I could also see possibilities in sending out emails to your players from the "create campaign" page. :)

That sounds awesome. :) I'm gonna throw more ideas at you when I get more time to play around with it tomorrow. Keep up the good work!
