Finally! After mooching all the 1337 cards I could find...

[Texas_Fett]

...I finally uploaded a slew of my own. I don't know when they'll be 'officially' posted, but let me go ahead and 'splain.

 

Most of the cards that I actually use are modified versions of ones I downloaded here or elsewhere (gotta love Trej's Daala! ). That said, I created a few of my own, including a few 'just for fun'. Now, I'm a neophyte photo editor, using MS Photo Editor, MS Paint, and Irfanview to manipulate my images. The end result is that I'm displeased with the end product of a few of my cards, most notably the Gunstars and the Ysanne Isard one (I had to completely reconstruct her left arm; not fun). Also, I'm almost positive I screwed up the pallette for a few of them, most notably the one for the Master Chief (whom I ALSO forgot to edit his card length and name in ResHack ) and for Pink 5 (I laughed, I groaned...I HAD to make a card!).

 

Anyway, I hope I didn't inadvertantly use someone else's image and claim it as my own. I have a few hundred cards on my box, and while I try to keep mine separate, sometimes it just doesn't work. As far as I'm aware, I personally edited each and every picture for the cards I uploaded. I have more, but similar cards are already in existence in the archives.

 

I hope y'all enjoy 'em. Feel free to gimmie some pointers and/or constructive criticism.

 

Edit: Btw, I'm not sure what the lag time is between uploading and their availability on the site, so don't think I'm crazy by posting this before they're up.

 

Edit Otra Vez, 1/22/04: They're up! A few didn't make it, but I guess I can just upload 'em again, huh?

 

Yet another Edit, 1/23/04: Evanders99 pointed out that if I do a search for cards authored by me, that all of them do, indeed, show up. So they're all there! Thanks Evanders!

I'm glad you liked it.

I have ~10 new cards I've made, all Chiss. The thing is, I 'aquired' the artwork from elsewhere on the net (a chiss fansite with some amazing art, and nightcrawler/nocturne fan sites).

 

Will people care if I stole the stuff? I'm not trying to take credit, make money, etc. I wish I had all the info about who the artist was, but the info either wasn't there or I didn't think of it at the time because I didn't think I could do it well enough to share.

 

Just curious...

I do recommend you put credits on your card... at least, from the database entry. Less we have people come and accuse the site of stealing.

 

Probably good to add credits to your actual card text too.

Thanks for the reply! I'll try to find the credit. Now that I think of it, the nightcrawler/nocturne credit is easy... Marvel Comics. The Chiss art looked stolen to be honest... There was no artist credit, but I'll try. At least I can cite the original theives

Ooo. Well, I tried to keep track of where I got all of the images, but that's great advice for future uploads.
