1) The google preview is not the image the image would be on the next page.
2) DO NOT use Google to find images. 90%+ of all images found on Google are copyrighted, most of the few that are not copyrighted still require permission to use. Never use art that you do not have permission to use.

So I will now make my own art, not just for me though.

A Nymph Princess waiting to be a real Nymph soon. Cool concept. 


Although Water is an element that relies on alchemy adding the ability that turns into a random nymph makes it a bit more entropy like.

There are already 2 cards within the same element that tries to do the same thing. I think this idea is too redundant.

This card also seems very underpowered and only useful in a rainbow deck since it is impossible to predict which nymph you will get and nymph are played mainly for their ability which can be repeatedly used.

Actually, in response to Waterknight's image:

This was the original inspiration for Nymph Princess. However if you click the link in the picture you'll find that it's on Photobucket and therefore I am stuck without the epic art.

Well, I was thinking that since Water seems to have a good hold on the creation of Nymphs that Nymphs in general are sort of 'ruled' by them (The Water Nymph unupped is the Nymph Queen after all). As willng3 stated in his earlier post this can also be copied with cards like Fractal and Mitosis. 

The reasons the Nymph is random for unupped is because I wanted to give the upped and unupped different uses. The unupped would work better in rainbows while the upped could create a Nymph duo. I also think the ability to choose a Nymph in the unupped metagame should be left to just the Nymphs and Nymph's Tears.

But yes, you definitley caught onto the concept Nik_V. Now, if only I could get art just as awesome as the above one...

Hows this z? EDIT: cleaned up the original art a little bit, so you might want to reupload the cards with the new image.

It slightly differs from what i had in mind, but it's still pretty good!

Just checking : did you contact the artist for permission?

I think the upped card cost should be increased to 5 or maybe even 6

I am the artist, unless you mean the stock photography from sxc. In which case it isn't necessary because it is royalty free.. If it actually gets into the game, then the photographer should be credited and notified, not something we need to worry about right now.

Standard restrictions apply and african_fi must be notified  and credited when using the photo for any public work.

According to this, you must credit the original artist as well as notify her that the art was used.
Easiest way to notify her is to leave a comment on the photo page saying it was used.

It's not a good idea to take chances with copyright. The curators here are especially nitpicky on this kind of stuff, but this is for the sake of the art.

People,

You need to understand that copyrights are not to be messed with. Take every precaution when working with them as they can instantly build up into tens of thousands of dollars in fines to both you and the community (mainly zanz/SG since they are the head honchos)

You may personally ask Timerclock about the usage of art, but chances are the curators will not let this through until the artist is contacted.

I edit ninja'd you, but unless it gets into the game there is really no point.

That's because I was looking for the policy the Curators put up.

No offense Product, but there are some very strict views on art usage in this forum. Some people like it, some don't, but if I want to submit this to the Crucible you'll need to leave a comment on the image page or contact the author in some other way.

EDIT : Had a little discussion in chat, the art is fine to use (thanks Kael Hate).

         I agree I don't see why we should consult them until it gets into the game. I don't understand this will a curator please explain?
