Looks awesome.
Here's my feedback:
(most of these I'm sure you are already aware of)
I have some idea but multiple brains have much more ^^
- cost could be a drop down menu from 0 to 20 (not 100% sure about this though)
I'm using a free text input because it's less restrictive. Also, you have the option to write a "X" if the card have a variable cost.
- no need to have element selection next to cost because it's always the same as the element of the card
That's true, but sometimes, you don't have any icon at all (Flying Weapon). But as Delreich suggested me, it'll be better to have an option to just have the icon or not, and retrieving the correct icon from the selected card element.
- attack/health thing could appear only after you've chosen "creature" and disappear if you choose something else. (very minor thing and definitely not needed if it takes more than 20 minutes to code)
- element selection could be both icon and element
- one option for layout could be so that the card image is in the center, and all the input fields and text boxes are around the image (title top-left, cost top-right, description bottom, etc.)
- if you want all the things in the same place like they are now, I would go with left->right, top->bottom method (when looking at the card). Something like this:
- title
- cost
- picture
- artist
- type (+ attack/health)
- description
- author
Those are just some ideas.
Nice ideas
Have you looked into integrating your card generator with Imageshack or something?
Not for the moment, but I will. I'll first just allow the user to download his card image, but if he could just sent it, that'll be much more simple.
Oh, wow. This is awesome stuff so far. Minor issue which you are probably already aware of:
Attack|Health on the card is slightly cropped off. With 2 digits of attack or 2 digits of defense, the last digit may be slightly cropped.[/li]
[/quote]You're right, I'll fix that.
Anyways, when you allow the insertion of images, will it be from a url or from a saved file?
I think from a saved file first, but from an URL is a good idea too, much more flexible !
Well done, i like these kind of works.
Yet needs to be tweaked a bit but overall its clean and easy to use.
The only thing im bothering with is the clearly identical look of the output cards.
I found myself playing with SG's psd/pixle premade, trying to create an identical look. I ended up closing such a project.
I appreciate that we coult be able to do this. But i think there needs to be an "indicator" showing that these are Card Ideas, so there is no mistaking that these didnt get implemented next time.
Ok, all those cards will be found in the appropriate subforum. Its just to be clear or rather see it at the first glance.
It's an idea worth digging, I understand your fear. Maybe I can add a "Custom card" or "Card idea" text somewhere on the card ?
