Edit: From a consistency standpoint, if the base attack symbol ends up by No Effect, it may be best to change WEAK, RESIST, and NO EFFECT, to W, R, and NE to match the BA.

I'd be good with that. Anyone have a problem with it?

Nope. Sounds good.

Will you be making that template available to everyone to use? Because if so, that is a really bad idea. What happens when some kid comes along and makes their own Pokemon customs using our "super cool template" or something like that and then posts a hilariously broken card using it? Somebody posting a really bad Pikachu or something using our template will make us all look terrible.

I don't mind the super cool card blanks being available to everyone through MSE - but that's sort of up to bmaczero to add my scripts to his. Otherwise, I don't see a lot of people taking the time to edit the scripts themselves just to post broken cards. We can differentiate ours with the Project Pokemon logo, whenever we choose one.

Could just as easily, greedy as it sounds, only share with Pokescape members. And even beyond that, only with Pokescape members using MSE. But I leave that up to everyone else.

A good thing to check out would be whether or not the C3G shares their templates. If they do then it can't be a huge problem, their easily recognized as the best and would know how much damage it could cause. If they don't then just trust them that they have their reasons. I personally have no problem sharing our templates, but that's just me.

Here is an updated Charmander card with a darker ground for the background picture.



We have several things we need to vote on template-wise, and then we'll get into the final wording on Charmander's card. I'll start the first vote tonight.

Call for Vote:

Let's vote on several options at once to keep this thread moving. Answer with votes in RED.

Vote Question #1: Which background is better for the text abilities box: the white background or the colored background (see post #2)?

Vote Question #2: Which is better for the background behind the Pokemon: a standardized background for each type (and each dual type), or unique backgrounds for each Pokemon?

Vote Question #3: Should we always use the Bulbapedia image for each Pokemon, or should we put out several images and vote on an image each time for each Pokemon?

The card you have looks great WK, and unless the others just hate it, or find errors on it, I think it should stay as is.
All of you will notice I have chosen unique options for all cards involved. I really would like to see our cards stand out from the rest of the custom cards in the forum. And with Mac and WK on the case, I think the cards they create will look awesome.

Unique Backgrounds for each Pokémon

Put out several and vote on the best one

Charmander looks really good, can't wait to see the others!

Vote Question #3: Should we always use the Bulbapedia image for each Pokemon, or should we put out several images and vote on an image each time for each Pokemon? I strongly support using other sources including the TCG. The TCG has some truly incredible images that would be a shame not to use.

My opinions.

Different. Let's not limit ourselves.
