Tokens are Live!

Another set of tools has been added to the Cardsmith, behold MTG Cardsmith Token Generation! Featuring a new fancy image uploader and cropping tools, along with a simplified form - hey, tokens are easy!

Notes:

You can leave power and toughness empty in order to hide the P/T section entirely. Token names are short as are P/T values, in order to maintain some realism.

Hope you like it! I've tried to generate a large enough image that printing is possible, as this is the only type of card you can use "legitimately" in play. I look forward to seeing what delights, or horrors, you make.

I was within and without. Simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life.

Sneak Peeks

Greetings all, I have a quick preview to share of something that's been in the works for a while:


I'm working on getting the new stuff online, but in the meantime you may see some blips/outages/weirdness with the site. It's all for the best! Leave your thoughts/cheers/grumblings in the comments!
So we drove on toward death through the cooling twilight.

Excuse the Dust - Saturday Maintenance

Hey all, you may notice some weirdness on the site this afternoon. Making some changes to help performance and page-load times, which involves a bit of server work.

If you experience an issue, sacrifice one land and one token card, then give it another shot.

Pardon the dust!

A Few New Toys

Check out the new Random! card navigation link on the homepage, and the new Previous and Next arrows on a single card page. Hopefully these will make it even easier to browse cards already created.


If you liked this micro-update and want to see more like it in the future,
please Donate via Paypal to let me know!

Update #1: Fixed a bug with sharing/twitter urls for the Random! page.

In four years, we've never had a serious accident or injury working with all the explosions.
