Competition: Card Border Redesign

[Kamietsu]

Card Border Redesign We've all seen the regular card design competitions. We've all seen the Epic Card competitions. Heck, we've even seen the Holiday Card competition. But now, break free from the confines of the card border. Don't restrict yourself to only messing around with the card's innards. Now you have the chance to design the card border itself!

Rules And Requirements 1 ::  Redesign the card border for the cards in Elements. 2 ::  You may redesign any Element you want except 'Other'. 3 ::  You must show your new design for at least 2 Elements.        E.g. If you redesign the Fire card border, you must also show        a similar concept for another Element. This can be anything         from a change in the pattern, to a change in the color palette. 4 ::  You must show at least one Element with its upgraded        form.  (3 images total: 2 unupgraded, 1 upgraded from the        element of one of those two) 5 ::  You must show your new design for two of the three        card types:        Creature, Permanent, and Spell. 6 ::  You must post your two similar concept designs in this        thread and Card Art section and provide a link to it. 7 ::  All card border dimensions must be 282 pixels wide by 436        pixels high. 8 ::  All designs must be your own. If you use art from the web        anywhere, make sure you give credit where credit is due and        give the source of it. 9 ::  Both entries must be similar in concept.        E.g. If you remove the small white border from the card, all of        your cards must have that border removed.

Sorry about that. ^^; Timer added.

EDIT: gotta drop out for various reasons sorry for the trouble

I would enjoy the textboxes being larger, or if the text can be made smaller. Often times when people try to design cards they seem to run out of room to add in more text.

[Kamietsu]

EDIT: as for the size limitations, do they have to be no larger than 282x436px or no smaller than? Or even both?
Can we post more than 2 images?
Would it be possible to have, for example, a redone Golden Hourglass and a redone Ray of Light and meet the conditions with that?

It's not a bigger than or smaller than requirement. It has to be those exact dimensions.

Please don't post more than 3 images(one element, second element, first or second element upgraded). But you can change those three images as much as you like until the countdown ends.

I don't understand what you mean. Golden hourglass is a Time permanent, and Ray of Light is a Light Creature. That meets the requirements specifically.

EDIT2: I understand what you mean now, and no, that would not meet the requirements since you'd only have two images. You'd need to show an unupgraded Light card then.

EDIT: I updated the rules so now it's a requirement to post it in the Card Art section and provide a link to it in this topic.

Not expecting to win here, but let's get this competition fired up a little.

We're looking at some awesome submissions so far!

Keep on submitting folks, even if you think you won't win.  The more people who participate, the more fun we'll have.

vrt: That looks so awesome.  I like the modern/new age feel.

I'm partecipating, although I suck at drawing and computer drawing is no exception. I like the new design aspect of the thing, although my art would probably suck.

You'll need to show the unupgraded Silence card as well(I assume the one you have there is upgraded?) Since three images are needed. 2 unupgraded and one upgraded(from one of the two elements you designed)

8 ::  All designs must be your own. If you use art from the web
       anywhere, make sure you give credit where credit is do and
       give the source of it.

Not to be a grammar Nazi but I think you mean "..where credit is due.."

Epic Cards. You may not be trying, but you have already blown most of the competition out of the water.
