[QUOTE="pdzoch, post: 7078839, member: 80982"] [MENTION=6796789]shamurai7[/MENTION], Just now saw your note, so I apologize for not responding sooner. Establishing the right amount of text box size is a bit of a challenge for magic items. Some items have very simple rules explanations, while others have very complex rules explanations. Making a one size fits all is extremely challenging. I decided that the text box on the card would provide a "cliff note" version of applicable rules and effects, while the rulebook would still be the place for the comprehensive explanation of complex magic items. I do intent to add a style to this template that looks like to older style (parchment and smaller image). I do not think I would retain the sword and dragon frames as they do consume valuable real estate on the card. I have considered making "Epic sized" magic cards especially for artifacts and complex magic item. This card set would be the same size as my [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/rpgdownloads.php?do=download&downloadid=1358"]Monster and NPC Data cards template[/URL] (5x8). Such a card size would make no sense for simple potions, but would be ideal for complex magic items, such as the Wand of Orcus. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
