[TJP12409]

NAME: Shard ELEMENT: Other COST: 1 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: N/A ABILITY: It looks like a crystal shard. it seems to be useless, but it might be upgradeable.	NAME: Shard of Independence ELEMENT: Other COST: 5 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: N/A ABILITY: Destroy all creatures on field except targeted creature

ART: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,11099.0.html IDEA: TJP12409 (i.e. ME!) NOTES: This card now that i look at it is VERY overpowered cost wise, I plan to edit it later and bump up the cost SERIES: N/A

Hey, isn't the unupped version made by me? I don't mind you using it, but you should at least give some credit.

[moomoose]

you gave art credit to zanz, so how is he to know if you were the source or not

[Bloodshadow]

No, he directly linked to my card image. If you right-click on the unupped image and see its URL, you will see this: http://a.imageshack.us/img101/1115/shardofmorality.png (in the end it says Shard of Morality, which is my entry).

[moomoose]

yeah, whats your point?  i did the same thing when linking my unupped shard, clicked a random shard post, took the url from the unupped shard and used it.  you never claimed art credit, for all he knew zanz could have made it and posted it somewhere he didnt know about, which you then saved and used in the planplan card maker (tho far more likely he didnt even look at the URL, as i did not when doing the same).  point being he couldnt have known, as you did not take credit until now, im sure he will probably be more than happy to give you credit for the unupped shard art, which is essentially irrelevant considering SG wont even look at it when adding it to the competition.

[Bloodshadow]

He goes to my thread, takes my picture, and puts it on his thread without any explanation at all. I don't know about you, but this attitude feels wrong to me; it felt like he took a part of idea and claimed it as his own.

[moomoose]

lawl.  like i said, i did the same thing with another shard, i dont know if the art existed previously or not, it could have been custom but i would have had no idea.  i could have easily done the same thing with yours had yours been posted before mine.  you made no art credit in your post, despite the opportunity to do so in your own post, but you only listed zanz.  and really, all you did was tweek the colors anyway right? brb ill make a carbon copy in 2 minutes and let everyone else use it, they wont even have to give me credit.

here y'all go:

I don't know what the original picture was like, but taking someone else's art, in this case art from Elements, and simply changing the colors, doesn't give you copyright to that image, nor do you have to give credit to that person.

Bloodshadow in the future if you have similar issues, PM Card Curators instead of posting these accusations publicly.

Thanks.

CURATOR COMMENT
To get this card approved for the competition:
-Leave the ATK|HP value blank in the table if the card is not a creature


...but yeah. The shard's cost definitely needs a raise. ^^; I hope you can change it soon before the competition deadline is over!

A few ideas (not necessarily all to be taken together):

Perhaps it should use all of one random pool of quanta?

Maybe to negate some of the OPness, it shouldn't trigger death effects?

How about killing all but one of a certain creature type? So if your opponent has 20 Fireflies & 3 Queens out, you target a Firefly and they're left with 1 Firefly & 3 Queens?

Or it could kill all creatures with a duplicate, leaving one of each type?

Hehe. I think I see a counter to my shard with this one. I like it!
