Made upon request: BW font guide for GIMP users
This is a GIMP version of ShinyBill's BW font guide. There are some differences because GIMP doesn't render text the same way that Photoshop does. Also, since GIMP can't italicize Sanvito Pro, I added an extra layer for those of you who want to substitute it with Times New Roman Bold Italic. I also added a couple more things, like HP and damage with 3 digits and a "plus" Weakness option.

RE: Fake Card Resources and Help
This is a question for anyone out there that uses GIMP: How would you go about getting attack effect text to 96%? The only way I've found to change width is to change the layer's width, which seems to have the same effect, but I can't resize the text box to line it up with where it should be after this, since the layer's text properties are gone. I would love an explanation on how to get this to work.

Fun fact: you can't. Unfortunately, GIMP isn't capable of adjusting text width. The only way you can do it is how you have been doing it, by changing the layer width. I usually don't bother changing it, though.
GIMP also isn't capable of making select text in a text box italic, which makes it a pain to type certain effects. They really need to release an update that will resolve these issues. :/

RE: Fake Card Resources and Help
I suppose if I really wanted to be accurate, I could figure out what size the text box should be in order for 96% to be 10px off of each side. But yeah, I haven't been changing it.
Another question I had, though, is about italicized effects. Since the same text box can't have two different fonts (as far as I know), how would you go about getting the italicized effect (such as not applying weakness or resistance) to be justified in the same way as the rest of the text, but in the correct spot in relation to the rest of the text?

You go to "move layer", then you click on the text layer until you've grabbed it, then you move it wherever you want.

Seeing that the Dragon type's due for release soon, excluding the Neo Redux version, would it be possible to post links to the Dragon Card blanks on the site once created?

Beautiful, that may give fakers an idea to use, for when they make their Dragon TCG Blanks.

That Dragon-type texture is so smexy. >w<
Speaking of textures, someone requested me to make a modern Metal-type texture (since I had only made a classic one). It isn't perfect, but it's something to use until someone uploads a better version (I think it already exists, but I've not seen it).

If go to the first page, it should tell you the location of the respective fonts you need.

I use something called Microsoft Digital Image standard 2006 Editor to make cards, and I only started using it 3 days ago, but I have allready made some good cards. P.S. I am using a Dell Laptop with windows 7 ultimate.
