Our site uses the Dice Rolls Extension by phpstudio to roll dice. This extension has a lot of variables and uses. As Savage Worlds players the biggest asset is that the system automatically figures out Aces (aka "exploding" dice).
Dice Tester & Syntax
The system has live test function that outlines all the different variables and gives you the opportunity to play around with the options. This can let you get familiar with the roller and play with formatting options that work for you. Although your GM may have a preference for how your rolls should appear as well.
