Has anyone put together a 4th Edition PD Screen?
I still have my old 3rd edition one, but want to have an updated one. Still in the process of getting back into gaming and want to do it right. I am hoping to GM some TMP games for the teens from my youth center as a break from their usual Pathfinder game.
Assuming no one has made one yet, what things would recommend I put on one?
If I end up making my own I will definitely post it up. So many of you have really put some work into the content you have shared on this and other sites.

Suggestions
A few charts
page 48 and 49: EXPERTISE and DIFFICULTY OF TASK.
page 50: DEGREES OF SUCCESS/FAILURE and EXCEPTIONAL RESULTS.
If your players get into combat then page 89: HIT LOCATIONS, NON-HUMAN HIT LOCATIONS, and VEHICLE HIT LOCATIONS
page 97: PANIC MODIFIERS
-------------------------------------------------------------
If you've got a new group of players, I'd suggest that you have a copy of their team loadout (page 177 will have some of it, but whatever you, as PD, also assign to them)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
In some games, I have found it useful to add a small index to the screen, so that I can quickly look up the right page
something like
BLOOD DONOR COMPATIBILITY - page 105
DAMAGE & RECOVERY - page 100
PROJECT VEHICLES - page 175
PROJECT WEAPONS - page 125
WEAPONS ISSUE - page 161
----------------------------------------------------------
If you're still planning to run "Liberation at Riverton", then just clip a list of NPC names and ages somewhere (and note when the PCs encounter them).
---------------------------------------------------
I think everything else is a matter of personal style.
I made one for me using the blank screen from Hammerdog.com. This blank screen is a vinyl cover over heavy card board with 8 blank pockets one can put into sheets they want. The screens are either in a portrait or landscape format, and can be had from either Hammerdog or Nobleknight.com. The screens are cheap ($30US) but are worth it to me for the customization.

Thanks for the suggestions Matt. I will take a look at those pages.
rob - I had already been thinking about getting one of those.
The joy of being an adult buying RPG stuff - moderate amounts of disposable income. I can remember scraping together money for TMP modules in high school and then catching the train into Manhattan to go shopping at The Complete Strategist in midtown.
