The ULTIMATE Photoshop CARD TEMPLATES v2.2.2

Is that feature in GIMP 2.6.8?  I have no idea where any of those are.  They aren't in the Toolbox, nor are they under the Layers toolbar.

Oh sorry thought you were suing photoshop nevermind.

I am stupid: where are the spell/permanent icons, and how do I make a card appear upgraded?

Thanks!

If you are using Photoshop, there are these folders on the "Layers" panel that you should be able to open. It's explained on the "tutorial" image that you see when you open the file.

Do you have to have photoshop to get that feature?  I'm using the latest version of GIMP, which was linked to from this thread...

There's a Gimp version hidden somewhere on this thread. Go find it and try it out.

Yeah, I realized I was using the old template.  My bad.

Could someone add layers of the different element backgrounds?  I've partially made a spell for water, but it's no good w/out that background.

So what's next for the card templates? and are those fonts the exact ones already used on the cards?

I don't know what you mean. What backgrounds?

Those fonts are the correct ones but the template still has Arial by default.

Next version of this template will use correct fonts as default. Downside is that it requires the person to install those fonts, and if he/she doesn't, Photoshop will use some replacement which might look like crap.

There was also some other error with the template that I seemed to have forgotten..

Also if someone has any ideas on how to improve the usability, please let me know.

You know how water cards have blue cards with swirly effects?  And life with green? Adding layers of the card colors would make it easier to create realistic cards.

(related but semi off topic question) If the card gets accepted into the game, does Zanz use the card and the image you made or just copy the image and use it his own templates?

That card template includes all 13 card backgrounds if that's what you are talking about.

Most likely he will take an idea, tweak it to fit better into his vision of Elements, and rebuild the whole card.
