Thanks for the comments guys. The site is free to set up and you can make it private to other google account holders, all you need is gmail.

The legal notepad is a stock theme that comes with it but you can create your own themes etc to make it look anyway you want. All I do is create a new page, then cut and paste the HTML from the SH3Commander patrol logs into the HTML editor that is part of the sites engine and save it all. It strips out things like the background etc and you have to edit the links so that it links inside the site but that only takes a little bit more cutting and pasting.

I do keep shorthand notes whilst patrolling and fill them out when I shut down the game. It doesn't take a lot to do as all the info is from what happens in the game with a few minor embellishments from my imagination.

I'm planning to develop some crew plotlines into the reports but in a way that would have been reported in a captains log rather than a story per se.

Hopefully I'll have some time to do some more over the weekend.
