However, losing my #1 pitcher and all of my outfielders for big chunks of the season prevented that.

3) I use LibreOffice Calc, which is a free spreadsheet program similar to Excel, and GIMP, a free image manipulation program. The info doesn't come from .csv dumps. though. I open reports in a browser and copy and paste and then re-tabulate stats and reformat. A few items in the standings report are entered by hand. Then I do a screen grab and paste into GIMP over the background.
Yeah, I meant that your team's talent was a lot better this version. Even with not getting to 50 wins, you were pretty impressive.

Thanks for the info on how you did that. The next Dynasty up after my Pirate one finishes (I find it a lot easier to pre-write material, then post as I can) is entirely screen-grabbed from OOTP itself, so it's the picture version of the league leaders. I'm unlikely to change that now after starting it (I don't want to re-start again), but I think when I get around to doing my re-imagining of baseball history, I might try it your way.

It's really hard trying to figure out just what you want to share when it comes to a dynasty, because the more you stop to write, the less time you're playing.
