This is probably the wrong place since this forum is for 'new' tools. I don't know off the top of my head of anyone that has done a sheet for any WW stuff... You can do it yourself though, if your willing to put in the work. It's a lot of manual effort at this point, but Jay(developer) is happy to point people in the right direction. He is working on a UI editor to build character sheets, but no idea when it will be ready for prime time.
I save all my Campaign Files to DropBox. Not only can I access a campaign file from pretty much any OS that will run Maptool(Win,OSX, linux), but each file is versioned, so if something goes crazy wild, I can always roll back to a previous version of the same file.

Get your Dropbox 2GB via my referral link, and as a bonus, I get an extra 250 MB of space. Even if you don't don't use my link, I still enthusiastically recommend Dropbox..

Well... if he does not reply to this thread within a few days(give it 5 or so), send Jay a PM. All of the RPtools use a java program called Abeille(sp??) forms which is a form designer and I think you would be able to use that to design the layout (I don't know for sure if thats how the CT works or not). Then after you have the form layout done, I am sure you can find someone to help do the programming parts(but it's really not that hard as long as you can follow logic based constructs)

It's available on java.net.

Just Google for it and add the word "download". :)
