    Don't worry, I'm not gonna enter the contest. I already can change my colors, I'm just gonna do one for fun.

    Edit: Baca what are the font names? I probably already own them. I have close 10,000 fonts on cd.

    OK, here is one I made this morning. I got the fonts as close as I could get them without copy/paste.

    Nice job Rox. I will post the font names later, I forget them right now and I am at work. I know the Card title is Armada Bold Condensed (I think...).

    Rox what font was that? Your card is awesome. I am using Paint Shop Pro for my cards, there is a free trial version at their websight. I got the full version for Christmas. It is a very awesome program.

    I can see Rox's images but that's it. I can't see another card.

    Here are the names of the official fonts

    Card Title: Armada-BoldCondensed
    Subtitle: BankGothic Md BT
    Gametext: dax condensed regular
    Numbers: AgencyFB-BlackWide

    The #pt (such as 6pt, 12pt) depends on the program being used and the image size.

    I know there are some fonts available by using Kazaa, but I am not sure which ones are "free" and which are stolen or pirated. Also, some of them are viruses so you have to scan to make sure they are not. I haven't found any fonts close to these that are free, but I am sure they are out there.

    Edit: I am not endorsing getting illegal fonts via Kazaa. There are some free ones available I believe

    Hey ALl

    I sent my card to Bacabachaui so it should be up soon. Im so glad benji showed me this thread (btw i beat him 3 - 0 in TCG the other day). This competition has given me something new 2 do. I have a 2nd card done and im making a 3rd. These will be done soon. I use photoshop 2 make my cards, layers really help. My friend gave it to me which means it is copied proberly :S. i don't endorse downloading ilegal programs but sometime they can be handy :D, though photoshop is quite advanced and difficult.

    hes my friend, hes a TCG player, an extremely lucky one, he managed to roll somethin like 6 hits of 6. Not funny when a star destroyer dies without gettin a shot off.

    How i have used Layers

    I use the template and selected it all with the retangle marquee and copy and paste it back on its self...so you have 2 layers.

    On the new layer with the copy (if its not on top bring it fwd like in the layer menu i fink) and select th white space where the pic would be and delete it...so u have a space there now (not that it is visible)

    Now get ur image, resize it etc (you make have to this in a new image jus go file>new
    and then once you have your image copy it into the card. It will create a 3rd layer and proberly on top of ur previous 1's. all you have to now do it send it back a layer so it is inbetween, so now u can move the pic around till you like it inside the card :D

    Hope thats not to complicated
    I have finishd my next two cards and will send them to Bacabachaui soon

    Cya
