I notice the three each have a large lump/sphere attached to them in some way. What's the significance of that?

RE: Fake Card Resources and Help Well, that was my thought too. Credit will be given, of course.

RE: Fake Card Resources and Help What's the opinion around here of using art from old Pokemon cards to make new fake cards? There are a few things I want to make, especially trainers, that I'm having trouble finding appropriate art for, and occasionally pulling from old material would be a...

RE: Grumpigfarmer's Art & Stuff... Nice stuff, Grumpigfarmer.

RE: theGardener's TCG Reboot Project || Update: poison-type Muk! Well, here's my current version of the poison-type card: This card employs another of my new mechanics--the new rules for special conditions. See the updated rules above for details.

I really like the swordfish idea. It's a bit surprising there isn't such a creature in the official dex. Anyhow, nice looking cards.

RE: Charganium's fakes: Gyarados Those are beautiful. (That compliment extends back a ways--you have some really cool stuff in this thread.) On the prerelease Gyarados though, it seems like you might want a bit more contrast around the set name as it's just a bit hard to see.

RE: theGardener's TCG Reboot Project || Update: TM example Thanks, Fraxureking! (I've fixed it.) Amphy23, that's an interesting way of explaining things. Thanks for taking the time to make things make more sense. I guess 'Potion' as a product name makes sense. But 'Energy' still puzzles me a...

RE: theGardener's TCG Reboot Project || Update: Jumpluff! I've been messing with a TM blank as well. Here's a sample (sans art at the moment), what do you think? The idea is that the TM will be slipped under the pokemon so the move sticks out at the bottom.

RE: Fake Card Resources and Help Well, there's a download link to the left for the PSD. Latios101 used the right fonts, so download the document, open it, and see what he did.

RE: Fake Card Resources and Help I've been using this: http://latios101.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d4xbt6h (Most of the fonts seem readily available on the web.)

RE: theGardener's TCG Reboot Project || Update: Jumpluff! Thanks for the corrections. I've fixed 'em. Just out of curiosity, why do we capitalize "Pokémon"? Grammatically the word seems analogous to "animal" or to "monster" neither of which is capitalized. (For that matter, why capitalize...

RE: theGardener's TCG Reboot Project || Update: Jumpluff! My first Pokemon card of the project: (edit: spelling and capitalization fixed) You'll notice a few deliberate changes as well as any accidental ones. For one, I've changed the border; for another, I've done away with the information...

The reason I took up faking again in the first place (and consequently ended up on here asking questions) is that I wanted to retool the Pokemon TCG. I like some features of the game but am not so crazy about others, so I wanted to try altering the rules a little and making cards that use the...

Thanks, man. I may well give that a shot--it's just the sort of visual affect I was looking for.

Hmm, I didn't know that about the Japanese translation. I suppose that does strongly point towards technique.

Greetings, Mitja. I'm new here, so I hadn't seen all this before. You have some cool Pokémon here. What enjoyed most, though, was your broad level thinking about game concepts: types, what they stand for, and which combinations of them haven't been used. Consequently, I spent a bit of time...

Ah, I see. So you redraw the elements from scratch? Well not giving out your PSDs makes sense. I'll mess around and see what I can do. Thanks for the information.

Oh, yes, very sorry for the oversight, Aschefield101! Would it be alright if I augment your B/W blanks to make my fakes with? As you can probably tell already, I don't intend to make very major alterations, and your name will remain on the cards. (If you want it there, that is. Once I'm done...

Trying to learn from your comments, here's my attempt at a more original texture for poison blanks: I'm still working on the cleanest way to add back the other things that belong on the bottom of the card. In the meantime, please let me know if you think the texture here is an improvement. My...
