While this work is largely my own, there are people who contributed material or other support and should be recognized.
*[[User:Bigode|Bigode]] assisted with a rather thorough editing pass of the skills while I was posting them to the wiki in the second phase. Typos, incorrect references, junk abilities, and actual nonsense were all corrected or pulled as a result of his work.
*[[User:IGTN|IGTN]] is responsible in large part for the [[Tome of Prowess (3.5e Sourcebook)/Jump|jump skill]]. His work to make a non-linear scaling jump was taken as the starting point, with his permission, for what eventually wound up in the book. It's Its posting to TGD also convinced me to put up some initial work I had been sitting on for a while to get some feedback. He was the first user to incorporate it into another complete wiki sourcebook, his [[Book of Elements (3.5e Sourcebook)|Book of Elements]] sourcebook, despite that work being complete and this one still in processprogress.*[[User:MisterSinister|MisterSinister]] was an early adopter and source of continued motivation to finish things up. He also contributed the following skill feats: {{#ask: [[author::MisterSinister]] [[Category:Feat||Scaling Feat]] [[Category:Tome of Prowess]]}}.*[[User:Parakee|Parakee]] contributed the following skill feats: {{#ask: [[author::Parakee]] [[Category:Feat||Scaling Feat]] [[Category:Tome of Prowess]]}}.*[[User:TheDarkWad|TheDarkWad]] contributed the following feats: {{#ask: [[author::TheDarkWad]] [[Category:Feat||Scaling Feat]] [[Category:Tome of Prowess]]}}.
*[[User:LeadPal|LeadPal]] contributed to the "Playing the X Game" sections, including almost all of the Perception entry (minor edits were made from his version, which can be found [http://www.tgdmb.com/viewtopic.php?t=53127&start=24 here].
*A special mention also goes out to [[User:Ghostwheel|Ghostwheel]]. While he hasn't contributed work to the project, he has served as a sounding board for abilities on several occasions and his interest in adapting this work to his other projects has helped me tighten things up where appropriate.
