While I don't mind the occassional bitmap file for a card submission, bmp files tend to be just too frickin huge to be a viable option for the final product. We can release the finish ones in "sets" of 9 or so in a jpg or perhaps even a pdf file.

Well in the terms of printing I have a question what is the actual size of a card in inhces as my friend and I founf out today when we made sheets of our cards they are too large the way we resized them. So I need the actual size in inches please. And when it comes to making the sheets they have to be PDF beacuse they will print whatever the image size is Jpeg tend to create boareders and cut paarts off the cards. So that's what I have to say.

I would not recomend going with JPEG because the dithering can often make the text difficult to read, especially if it is smaller. BMP may be large but I think it offers the best balance between file size and image quality. PDF might be a good idea.

Galactic Center is a cool name, but there is also "Mystery". It's a short, but to the point name.
Consider also "Attack of the Clones" (D'uh), "Assassin's Plot", "Intrigue" or something like that.

I'm assuming you're going for 3 sets of 80-120 cards each, in the style of Decipher's prequel campaign?
From the opening of the film to the Coruscant Chase, and some senate-related stuff:
"Skies of Coruscant"
This one could deal with Anakin and Padme's story from Naboo to Tatooine, as well as Obi-Wan on Kamino:
"The Approaching Storm"
And the final one would be basically all the stuff from Obi-Wan's discovery of the droid foundries to the final battle:
"Geonosis" or "Battle of Geonosis"
I also wanted to explore the idea of Coruscant sectors, similar to asteroid sectors, where speeders could race through and take possible losses from "traffic".

Sithlord119, I've been setting my card image size to 2.5 x 3.48 inches and it's been working fine for me. I find I need to carefully shave just a sliver of black off the cards on all 4 sides when I trim them to avoid a white edge showing. I use a metal ruler and an industrial single edge blade to cut them apart on a light table we have at work.
I've been printing them 6 at a time on lettersize paper. The higher the resolution the better to get the text to print sharp. I've been using 200 dpi on my cards, but find that 150 dpi is acceptable as well.

>>Galactic Center is a cool name, but there is also "Mystery". It's a short, but to the point name.<<
Interesting suggestion.
>>Consider also "Attack of the Clones" (D'uh)<<
I did, but I don't think it's an apt name for that segment of the film, since the attack isn't until the end.
>>"Assassin's Plot", "Intrigue" or something like that.<<
Perhaps, I did think of something along those lines once.
>>From the opening of the film to the Coruscant Chase, and some senate-related stuff:
"Skies of Coruscant"<<
Although it really happens below Coruscant for the most part;;)
"Depths of Coruscant" maybe?
>>This one could deal with Anakin and Padme's story from Naboo to Tatooine, as well as Obi-Wan on Kamino: "The Approaching Storm" And the final one would be basically all the stuff from Obi-Wan's discovery of the droid foundries to the final battle:
"Geonosis" or "Battle of Geonosis"<<
Well, I think for the next two we'll stick to just "Kamino" and "Geonosis", since that stays with Decipher's pattern of naming expansions simply after a "planet".
>>I also wanted to explore the idea of Coruscant sectors, similar to asteroid sectors, where speeders could race through and take possible losses from "traffic".<<
Nice idea...would work well with my speeder chase epic events. Although I think having more Coruscant sites would be more useful to the game overall (say, for Coruscant Celebration, etc)

Then what if you use the same mechanic, but in non-unique Coruscant locations? Something like "speeder chase rules in effect here."

2ndQuest, curious what cards you already have planned for the first expansion? Have to compiled a list of cards you think should fit in it thus far?

I am keeping a list of all the cards submitted in these two threads, but I'm about a week out of date on it, so let me update that, sort them into the set brackets and I'll post a list later today of what we have so far, and we can work on it from there.

I posted some "potential" location pics (on cardbacks) you might all want to consider. I don't have any idea what game text would work best with any of the potential objectives (expansions). I didn't pay much attention to light or dark card backs or inside_outside icons etc.
Check them out here:

Just a little note, it should be "Kamino: Tipoca City", not Kamino City

Wow, great looking images- although Geonosis is a little blurry.
I'd call the one "*Naboo: Spaceport (Docking Bay)"
I'm working on a few coruscant sites in relation to the speeder chase epic events, so I'll try to get those names up shortly for ya.

Yeah... posted suggested corrections. I agree Geonosis is a bit blurry. Perhaps a bit more unsharp masking, or maybe I should try a little less of an enlargement. It was kinda tough getting Slave 1 out of the Rings around the planet and keeping the rings looking natural. I might get around to posting a before_after pic at some point.
Sure wish I had a copy of the movie. A DVD would work wonders.
