[Old] How to Post A Card Idea

[Kael Hate]

Crucible -> Forge
At the end of the week 3-4 most voted cards from Crucible get moved go to Forge (one per element).

So when does this part actually begin? 

First 3 cards will move in about 4hrs. Then every 7 days another group gets moved for a total of 13 per lunar month.

question for SG/anyone else....

you say (on the 1st page) 1 card per thread (un-upd and upd) unless they create another card... yes.

what happens if you card can change ability to do with different quanta types??
basically i have 1 idea that can become any quanta type - and i created each type (with abilities) -- so i have 2 (un upd and upd) of the real card -- but then also another 24 card images (2 for each quanta)
should i only make 1 thread with all the images or make an thread for each pair??

technically it is only 1 card and only that one would be put into play/the game so what do i do??

it all sounds complicated but it might be easier if i just post them and you can see ^^

If they are mechanically identical, use that.

tbh - im not sure
i have put up the thread in the Card Design area (smithy) it is 'Shape Changer | Shape Shifter'
i also started to make a thread for the abilities named 'Shaper Changer/Shape Shifter's tranformations ***NOT SEPARATE CARD IDEAS***' (have put ideas 1-6 (i will put others up after food)
just to let you know

however i cannot seem to get the size to 282x436.... in my folder it says they are but when i uploaded them it made them 77x120 -- if i change the post (your table thing) to 282x436 they blur >_<
help on this please

As a rule unless the card idea is standalone, it does not need its own thread.

I the case of your shapeshifter and its transforms, they should all go in the one topic. I've done that for you by merging the 2 threads.

Your image provider may be the culprit for your crushed images. Make sure you are not using any compression settings when you upload. Also, link to the actual image and not the Thumbnail of the Image. (Edit - I checked out your thread. You are linked to the Thumbnails.)

well i used the pixlr thing to create the card...
saved to My Documents
then when posting the thread i used the link below the box 'Add image(s) to post'
when i click that it comes up a new window (Imageplay.net)
I browse My Docs to get the image file (.png from pixlr)
no resize and it uploads....
but it is shrunken

when i click on the shrunk image it opens up the proper sized one


if you can tell me exactly how you do it this can be easily fixed
i will try and fidle around to get it to work also
thanks

That pop-up window.. there's an "Additional Options" where you will find "No Thumbnail" checkbox.

im sure I did all that - but i have fixed it now...

when it puts them in the code (when you click modify post) had '[ url=http://]'and'[ /url]' stuff - i removed that
it was missing a 'img/' from the middle of the code
and yes it put them as '_thumb.jpg's not '.png's >_<

resized and all fixed now
