[QUOTE="Archon of Light, post: 4285849, member: 20967"] [b]An Alternate Design[/b] I've been quietly watching this thread for the last few days since the official release. Like many others, I love the idea of using actual cards in play for the new system and admire the effort and talent being displayed here. However, I found that none of these examples really suited my own personal tastes (no offense). But rather than come here and gripe or whine to get others to do something different just for me, I decided to take it upon myself to create my own cards for my home game. And then show them off here. ;) The major differences between my own designs and those shared here are: they're not your standard 'trading card'-sized, they're much more (almost painfully) colorful, and they don't utilize a bunch of symbols like a trading card game might use. And rather than waste the backside with a lovely (but ultimately useless) back cover, - I don't think we need to hide the identity of our character's power cards that we intend to use in play - I utilized both sides for game information. Both front and back are printed on the same page, side-by-side so they fold against each other to form a single card without worrying if your printer will line up the paper properly trying to print on both sides. (What a headache that was until I figured that out!) I've completed an entire set for each class for power levels 1-3. The images below are samples of an at-will, encounter, and daily power. The original documents are in pdf format and print beautifully (though my inkjet cartridges are expected to dry up real fast!). I'm not really looking for suggestions or criticisms since I've done these mostly for myself (and getaway from the more common designs already being offered by others), but I will accept constructive feedback and criticisms. However, if enough people are interested in this as an alternate design to what has been mostly available, I might make them available for those interested. [/QUOTE]
