...unless I'm mistaken, black and darker tints are also considered colors. I'm confused as to why people can't change the color of the background of part of the card itself.
Granted, these cards haven't been submitted to Curator approval, in which case Kael Hate will take a look (as he as been). Regardless, I prefer comments on the ideas themselves, rather than the card art (which can be easily changed/modified to have the correct 'coloring' as noted.)
